No BS Press is all about truth vs. the 24/7 BS we receive from TV, newspaper, magazines and radio regarding everything we purchase from "organic foods" to the "Made in the USA" designation.
The secret is in the ambiguity and imprecision of our English language and our gullibility towards believing everything we hear, not to mention our inability to question anything that even vaguely challenges logic, reason and common sense.
Case in point: Foods that are "regulated" but not enforced, (not unlike the hundreds of "regulations" the FDA has):
LAINGERS MANGO NECTAR
Read the container:
"Made in USA"
"Made with Alphonso Mangos"
"Manufactured" by LAINGER JUICE COMPANY, INC.
CITY OF INDUSTRY, CA 91745 USA

Sound like an American product?
FACT: In April 2007, the United States lifted its ban on the import of Indian mangoes, including the Alphonso. The first batch of Alphonso mangoes arrived in the U.S. after an 18 year hiatus. However, the mangoes must be treated before entering the country in order to stop the introduction of non-native fruit flies, destructive fungi, and other pests that could cause great damage to American agriculture. Individuals cannot bring mangoes into the United States in luggage or ship them by mail.
India, (the world's largest and only manufacturer of DDT) grows, harvests, de-stones, refines, packs and ships Langers Mango Nectar to the U.S.

This is NOT an isolated case.
In fact, the food that we eat and drink are abundantly saturated with U.S. "banned" pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and many other "_cides."
The way our FDA gets around this is, we manufacture the "banned", chemical toxins, sell them to other countries from whom we import our various foodstuffs and end up ingesting them anyway.
WAKE UP AMERICA
