    We need a consumer based body with enough money to test our water and food on a regular & random basis.
    It needs to be independent of government which has clearly failed us.
    Just why are we importing recycled sewage water from Asia labeled "made in Australia"? Disgusting, but not overly surprising.
    What is surprising, is there are no penalties for lying.

    What I found interesting in that program was how the experts said that the FNAZS organisation is basically a business agent of some sort. That supports my view about issues with selling eggs and poultry.
