    We're quite good with livestock growth hormones in the EU* - they're pretty much banned outright, which I find reassuring - god only knows what their long term effects are.

    It's the pesticides on veg that bothers me - if it's designed to kill bugs, surely it's also got to have an effect further up the food chain too?

    *not saying we're any 'better' than you guys - the UK's home of the whole feeding bits of omnivore animal A to omnivore animal B, with scant regard for the consequences.
