troy farnsworth #4 food or terrorism-what's the biggest threat?

The article found at: http://www.newstarget.com/z004781.html provides a unique look at the dangers American's face when it comes to many of the foods we eat regularly. A quote from the article states: "Which ingredients am I talking about? Sodium nitrite (cancer), refined white flour (diabetes), hydrogenated oils (heart disease), aspartame (nervous system disorders), red meat (colon cancer), excess sodium (hypertension), and the list goes on." The food additives and preservatives are literally killing america at a rate much faster than any terrorist group. When you think of things in terms like this, it makes you take a second look at the indgredients lists on the packages of the foods we eat.
