Hippie alert!

I have been reading this book alot latley.
Slow Death by Rubber Duck
Isnt that a friendly title?
This book, and others like it, are going to turn me into some kind of a hippie or hermit or something. It is really scary to think of all the chemicals and known toxins that are pumped into EVERYTHING we use all day long and we have no idea!!
Did you know that companies can put chemicals into whatever they want without having first tested them to make sure they are safe??? Even as this book has pointed out in numerous studies that companies know some chemicals they are using are toxic to human health yet they continue to use them until law suits come up and they are forced to stop..... what the?
It has been a facinating read so far and I am learning alot about the products that we use everyday.
I really really really recommend this book to everyone!
especially if you have kids!
