This is typical of the FDA these days, and is partly due to the current adminstration. They managed to stack politcal hacks and cronies into important positions to ensure that big business is taken care of one way or the other whether it's through the FDA for pharamceuticals and bio-altered/chemically altered foods, or it's through the EPA to help the chemical and mining industries to get away with things like increased pollution by weakening the Clean Air Act, or allowing mining and drilling in sensitive natural areas.

I think that once the adminstration has changed, we'll hopefully see a change for the better. I hate to get political as I usually keep this topic out of the forums, but this is all the more reason not to vote for McCain.
