California lawmaker wants to ban foods containing harmful chemicals

A new proposal in California is taking aim at various chemicals in processed foods like candy, cereals, and bread that have been linked to a higher risk of serious health problems. The state lawmaker leading the charge hopes this move will force manufacturers to find other non-harmful ingredients for their products. NBC’s Dr. John Torres reports.

Foods are toxic in America, yet people worry about farmed salmon while no other country worries about, even Japan doesn’t have issue with farmed salmon…America focusing on the wrong things since 1776. 😂
