Oct 21, 2011 - When I traveled thru India, I was surprised to see beautiful apples and other fruit without any imperfections, then I learned they still use DDT and massive amounts of other pesticides.

yourtreat2 Says:

Oct 21, 2011 - It's just from all those spices.

theapollomoonlanding Says:

Oct 21, 2011 - I love DDT!

dlstb Says:

Oct 21, 2011 - wasn't there a test in which they fed men DDT everyday and then found out that those men had something like an 80% lower chance of developing cancerous tumors? And weren't the eagles in the famous weakened shell tests deprived of calcium in their diets? Since DDT has been banned from manufacture/use in the US and elsewhere, there have been 500 million people die worldwide from Malaria.

Oct 21, 2011 - Did the guy really say that the FROGS ate the PLANTS? Last I checked, frogs are carnivores and eat insects. Granted, the translator may have made a mistake, or maybe he ommitted the part about frogs eating insects that eat the plants, but if you want to be taken serious, you should get this stuff right. And do they ever get around to mentioning that they need so much spray because the seed market is ruled by Monsanto?

Oct 22, 2011 - @kalimaganeshshivan lol@Ur sensitive little pussy.

FedupwithR Says:

Oct 22, 2011 - @TheEpicVBayer made it originally but has now stopped.

kalimaganeshshivan Says:

Oct 22, 2011 - I love eating sensitive little pussy so I guess I am what I eat, however don't make light of people with extreme health problems due to this debacle taking place in India. My heart goes out to them because because they are my brother's and sisters!

TheEpicV Says:

Oct 22, 2011 - Bayer? Didn't Bayer also knowingly distribute AIDS infected transfusion blood to hemophiliacs and kill thousands of people around the world? Why does this corporation still exist?

FedupwithR Says:

Oct 22, 2011 - @TheEpicVI don't know about "knowingly" but they have been accused. One of their pesticides was finally banned here in France, but only after a long struggle by beekeepers who were loosing two thirds of every hive. They are a vast multinational producing so many different products, not all of which are bad, so we probably can't do without them.

yourtreat2 Says:

Oct 22, 2011 - Must be the Lamb Vindaloo.

FedupwithR Says:

Oct 23, 2011 - Which probably means we won't see an end to it shortly!

Mr3Dillusions Says:

Oct 24, 2011 - Once again Bayer's chemical hand is evident

theapollomoonlanding Says:

Oct 24, 2011 - I agree with you. It is a wonderfull product. We have to start manufacturing it again in America.
