In 2009, President Barack Obama selected Monsanto executive Michael Taylor to be the nation’s first food safety czar.
In 2012, citizen Frederick Ravid collected 186,000 signatures on a petition at signon.org to force Taylor’s removal. All those signatures lead us to ask…
Should Monsanto be in charge of America’s food safety?
This Saturday at 9am Pacific, the Food Chain Radio show with Michael Olson hosts citizen Frederick Ravid for a conversation about the relationship between the federal government and the Monsanto Corporation.
Topics include why the President selected Monsanto’s Michael Taylor to be the nation’s first food safety czar; what the Food and Drug administration has been doing to make food safe; and why, in a very short period of time, 186,000 people signed a petition demanding Michael Taylor’s removal.
