Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Fucking god dammit, Americans just can't stop putting lead in food. We love it, we crave it, there is no true end to it. Just a few months ago some applesauce companies got in trouble for using lead as sweetener. This is in a nation that took over Hawaii for sugar fields and subsidizes corn syrup to such an absurd degree that we're collectively assigned diabetic at birth. But no, let's add more fucking lead. I refuse to believe there is some accidental means by which lead can reach modern food production. We've known of its dangers for so long, it'd be so easy to just not have lead around our food, but we truly can't help ourselves.
One of the recalled brands is, I kid you not, "Supreme Tradition", sold at Dollar Tree.
Other 5 are La Fiesta, sold at La Superior and SuperMercados; Marcum, sold at Save A Lot; MTCI, sold at SF Supermarket; Swad, sold at Patel Brothers; and El Chilar, sold at La Joya Morelense.
This has to be a targeted attack on poor people.
