Guest guest Posted August 28, 2001 Report Share Posted August 28, 2001 i stay away from waxes and shellacs anywho..... and, the places i shop(whole foods and berkeley bowl) are really good at labeling wot is organic, wot is transistional, and wot is covered in wax.. if i can peel a layer away from the fruit, without damaging it, i'll make it a candle... fraggle " jallan " <jallan wrote: >>milk on veggies??? next it'll be pork fat on apples...... >>*in bad favio accent* >> " i can't believe it's not milk fat....

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2001 Report Share Posted August 29, 2001 don't know about you guys...but most of our fruits and some veggies have a loverly coating of some sort or other,...you have to go to nice nice places that won't buy shellaced fruit over here... i guess the other places figure the pesticides would wash off otherwise.... hey!! if you didn't eat fruit with pesticides and wax, you'd have cockroaches in yer belly!!! tis troooooo !!!! saw it on TV... *sigh* i'm actually more worried about the big push to have our food " cold pasturized*....that's irradiated to the rest of you egads!!! fraggle Gareth <gpashley wrote: >John... >re: shiny fruits > >Any idea who the main culprits are in the UK? > >Gareth > >__________ > >Get your free @.co.uk address at http://mail..co.uk >or your free @.ie address at http://mail..ie > > >To to the Digest Mode [ recommended ], send an email to: vegan-network-digest > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2001 Report Share Posted August 29, 2001 I have had dialog with Tesco on this. They are big on Shellac. Hence why I swapped to being a Co-op shopper. --- Gareth <gpashley wrote: > John... > re: shiny fruits > > Any idea who the main culprits are in the UK? > > Gareth > > __________ > > Get your free @.co.uk address at http://mail..co.uk > or your free @.ie address at http://mail..ie > ===== Free antivirus software at www.grisoft.com Free firewall software at www.zonealarm.com Check against email hoaxes at www.stiller.com/hoaxes.htm or www.scambusters.org/legends.html Get email alerts & NEW webcam video instant messaging with Messenger http://im.
