In-N-Out Burger Petition

Los resultados:

• In-and-Out french fries had the highest level of heavy metals in all of the top twenty plus one fast food brands tested.
• The heavy metal cadmium, detected in the In-and-Out French fries, was 1,158% higher levels of cadmium than what the EPA allows in drinking water.
• Cadmium is highly carcinogenic and can cause toxic reactions even at low levels.
• In-N-Out Burger samples also tested had trace amounts or higher of lead.
• Even low levels of lead in blood have been shown to negatively affect a child’s intelligence, ability to pay attention, and academic achievement.
• The scientific consensus is there is no safe level of lead.

Moms Across America requests that In-N-Out Burger take these results very seriously and make immediate changes to its sourcing of ingredients.

EPA Limits for Heavy Metals in Water

We thought you’d want to know that you can make a difference in the abysmal health of our nation. Here’s how:

We request that In-N-Out Burger alert your suppliers that you will be transitioning to sourcing from suppliers who regularly batch test for the presence of heavy metals (typically an $85 test) as a quality control measure, and do not allow their presence. Suppliers must be regularly third party tested for these toxins in order to have your business.

Para reducir la presencia de metales pesados. En sus productos, el proveedor necesitará obtener fertilizantes (la fuente más probable de los metales pesados encontrados) u otros agroquímicos que no contengan metales pesados (como los herbicidas a base de glifosato).

Para reducir los residuos del herbicida glifosato en el suelo (que puede permanecer durante décadas), patólogo de plantas Don Huber PhD. recomienda el siguiente producto para eliminar el glifosato del suelo antes de realizar la transición a la agricultura orgánica regenerativa. El producto "PaleoPower Microbial de Biociencia orgánica antigua, Inc ha demostrado que elimina el glifosato del suelo en 30 días: tienen investigaciones y resultados sobre la degradación del glifosato y AMPA en el suelo utilizando su producto.

A nontoxic weed killer and drying agent solution is Contact Organics. Contact Kathleen at Livkleen.com or through Contact Organics.

Taking these quality control steps is essential for basic human health at any level of consumption of your food.

We are asking In-N-Out Burger to be leaders in sourcing safe potatoes and food products that are heavy metal-free. Please respond to us regarding the steps you plan to make. We would be thrilled to share with our network and the public how much In-N-Out cares about your customers and our nation's future!

Sinceramente,

Antecedentes

Por qué probamos la comida rápida:

La comida rápida es consumida por ochenta y cinco millones de estadounidenses cada día, y muchas cadenas son a menudo los proveedores de almuerzos escolares. Treinta millones de comidas escolares se sirven a nuestros niños todos los días, y para millones de niños desfavorecidos, estas comidas tóxicas son su único acceso a la nutrición. Nuestras pruebas anteriores ha demostrado que los almuerzos escolares de Estados Unidos son realmente tóxicos.

To further investigate the status of a major source of food and nutrition in America, Mamás en toda América supporters, including Children’s Health Defense, the Centner Academy, and many individual supporters, recently initiated extensive testing focused specifically on America’s most popular fast food chains to explore the potential contamination of our food supply, which is likely affecting our physical and mental health.
