I did. Now think about what's in your food at 3rd place and consider how much worse it's going to get.
Why? Seriously. What for? What was the point of replying to my original comment? Are you trying to start a fight?
Do you not like facts? Is it just that you felt like what I said was misleading?
What is your deal?
Because it seems to me like you're just being antagonizing for no reason.
My comment wasn't intended to be a defense of American food. It wasn't suppose to come across as if the food doesn't have any flaws or dangers. But you sure took it like I said something crazy.
You aren't even comparing our rice and the levels of heavy metals found to other countries to see where we land.
Or explaining the difference between brown rice levels of heavy metals vs white rice levels (brown rice having more heavy metals by a large margin).
Instead you're just out here spreading FUD for reasons so you can dunk on the US.
