Show me where humans were fed minute amounts of pesticides or
herbicides in their drinking water for many years, in a controlled
study.

Also: Children constantly put their hands or fingers in or near their
mouths when they're playing. Show me controlled studies in which
children came into contact with yard chemical residues and then put
their fingers in or near their mouths.
OTOH, show epidemiological evidence indicating a problem.

You could say the same thing on any and every product made (including
so-called "organics" and/or "natural").

NOTHING can be shown to meet those criteria.

Get serious. Please.
I'm as serious as you want...if your statement is to be taken at face
value, so is mine.

So, you're saying that if it has not been proven UNsafe, it's OK to eat
it and have kids come into contact with it. Is that your final answer?

No, obviously, but you're claim is to have had to have actual human tests
at some low level for some indefinite length of time prior to use of any
product. My point is it ain't possible to prove a negative.


I never said "indefinite". But, never mind that.

You said "No, obviously". It's not so obvious. You also said nothing can
meet those criteria, which isn't exactly true. How many of the things we eat
were specifically designed to kill?
