UPDATES: The H.R.2749 - Food Safety Enhancement Act was passed on 7/30/09. Is it anything like the H.R. 875 bill? Find out what is means for organic farmers and you and me!
I received this in an email and was astonished to hear this. I have no idea if it is true but the bill does exist and if it ismore than what it reads on the surface then WOW!

US House and Senate are about (in a week and a half) to vote on bill
that will OUTLAW ORGANIC FARMING (bill HR 875). There is an enormous rush to get this into law within the next 2 weeks before people realize what is happening.
Main backer and lobbyist is Monsanto - chemical and genetic engineering
giant corporation (and Cargill, ADM, and about 35 other related
agri-giants). This bill will require organic farms to use specific
fertilizers and poisonous insect sprays dictated by a newly formed
agency to "make sure there is no danger to the public food supply". This
will include backyard gardens that grow food only for a family and not
for sales.
If this passes then NO more heirloom clean seeds but only Monsanto
genetically altered seeds that are now showing up with unexpected
diseases in humans.
Here's a link that gives you an idea how this can be happening:

I always told people that bacon was a great thing. I mean, yea, I switched to Turkey bacon because I'm watching my girlish figure....and sure the whole swine flu is going on but c'mon. If you have a hangover is it not worth the risk?
Let me guess, you don't believe me? Fine! Well here's some proof for you. Give that pork skin a try and see if you succumb to the horrible "Porcelain Prayer"
Thanks Bru!
