21. They tell us ALL our food undergoes "rigorous testing".
But we know better than that don't we? For a couple of decades now these are people who have been more occupied with selling the perception of safety rather than actually, you know, making sure food is safe. I don't see any reason to believe that situation has changed appreciably under the Obama regime, which is something of a disappointment.

Will the testing of gulf seafood be better? Maybe. I can't say and I really doubt you can either. I do know however that I won't be betting my health on it which is a shame, I used to be friends with a few people around Pensacola who still make their living fishing and shrimping in the Gulf. At least they did until now.
