What the FDA's ban of BVO — a soda additive and flame retardant — says about food safety in America
"It's disgraceful that it took decades of regulatory inaction to protect consumers from this dangerous chemical"
You're viewing a single thread.
Um so when I grab a mountain dew at the store I am consuming a flame retardants? So does that mean I can douse myself in soda and run into a burning building?
Water is also a soda additive and flame retardant
It's also an industrial solvent!
Not to minimize the fact that BVO is known to be toxic and should have been banned years ago, but yes I hate when they make stupid comparisons like that
but bro. its brominated.
You'd find yourself in a hot pickle, Don Dickle.
You're like the line in the movie that has the title in it.
ONE MAN.
ONE PICKLE.
I feel like you've missed a golden opportunity it to make "dickle" into a suggestive verb. Like "Pickle Patrol 2: Debbie Gets Dickle'd"
Mountain Dew stopped including BVO in 2019. So you've been in the clear for at least 4 years.
It has had it here in Colorado still.
Bromine is used in flame retardants AND in brominated vegetable oil. Like chlorine is used to clean your pool water and as a component of table salt.
