colas from the 1950s were the only items ever approved to have added
caffeine by the FDA. The FDA has reportedly met with several large food
companies such as Mars Inc. to discuss their concerns.
</div><div>"It is disturbing. We're concerned about whether they have been adequately evaluated," said Taylor.</div>
<div>Ironically, the main concern for most food safety advocates is genetically-modified foods (<a href="http://www.examiner.com/topic/gmo" class="inline_link">GMO</a>), which Taylor has a long history of supporting.</div>
<div>Taylor was not only a lawyer who represented the GMO giant <a href="http://www.examiner.com/topic/monsanto" class="inline_link">Monsanto</a>,
who are most known for producing such poisons as Agent Orange, but
later became Monsanto's Vice President for Public Policy before being <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jeffrey-smith/youre-appointing-who-plea_b_243810.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">appointed to the USDA and later the FDA a second time under President Obama</a>.</div>
<div>Despite the release of <a href="http://biointegrity.org/list.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">secret documents</a>
from the early 1990s showing the FDA's extreme concern over safety
issues regarding GMOs initially, Taylor went on to help approve GMOs for
human consumption while alleging their safety.</div><div><br></div><div class="yui_3_7_2_49_1367450422230_73" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 18.6667px; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><a href="http://www.examiner.com/article/fda-concern-over-caffeinated-food-prompts-investigation-still-ignoring-gmos">http://www.examiner.com/article/fda-concern-over-caffeinated-food-prompts-investigation-still-ignoring-gmos</a></div><div> </div><div style="color:rgb(255, 127, 0);"><font style="color:rgb(255, 127, 0);font-weight:bold;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" size="2"><span style="font-family:bookman old style, new york, times, serif;"><span style="font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">===============================</span><br>Chuck Palazzo<br>Agent Orange Action Group</span><br>http://aoag.org/<br><span style="font-family:bookman old style, new york, times, serif;">Hoa Binh
