This is part of why I cook most of what I eat, only go out to eat when out of town or to meet people, and always buy organic.
Wow, Didn't realize we have been fertilizing our crops with sewage sludge for the past 30yrs. That's one of the main reasons I don't buy Chinese seafood.
" Then, with the sweep of a pen, the EPA reclassified sludge from *hazardous material* to *compost*.

[h=3] What is Dihydrogen Monoxide?[/h] Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colorless and odorless chemical compound, also referred to by some as Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid. Its basis is the highly reactive hydroxyl radical, a species shown to mutate DNA, denature proteins, disrupt cell membranes, and chemically alter critical neurotransmitters. The atomic components of DHMO are found in a number of caustic, explosive and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol.
[h=3] Should I be concerned about Dihydrogen Monoxide?[/h] Yes, you should be concerned about DHMO! Although the U.S. Government and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) do not classify Dihydrogen Monoxide as a toxic or carcinogenic substance (as it does with better known chemicals such as hydrochloric acid and benzene), DHMO is a constituent of many known toxic substances, diseases and disease-causing agents, environmental hazards and can even be lethal to humans in quantities as small as a thimbleful.
[h=3]What are some of the dangers associated with DHMO?[/h] Each year, Dihydrogen Monoxide is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths and is a major contributor to millions upon millions of dollars in damage to property and the environment. Some of the known perils of Dihydrogen Monoxide are:

When I saw the title of the thread I immediately thought of this one girl in high school
Suprised it took this long.......
It wont effect me but it looks like vegans,vegetarians, and muslims are ****ed.
Vegans/vegetarians already don't eat that stuff.
Definitely not going to change anything even if people know what's in their food. Look at the number of smokers/dippers we still have. And that stuff is known to cause cancer.

- Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.
- Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.
- Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.
- DHMO is a major component of acid rain.
- Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.
- Contributes to soil erosion.
- Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.
- Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.
- Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.
- Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions.
- Given to vicious dogs involved in recent deadly attacks.
- Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere, and in hurricanes including deadly storms in Florida, New Orleans and other areas of the southeastern U.S.
- Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect.
