Hmm: Applesauce Pouches May Have Been Deliberately Poisoned

 The Washington Examiner reports that "Applesauce pouches may have intentionally been poisoned with lead: FDA." From the article:

    Food and Drug Administration officials suspect that tainted cinnamon applesauce pouches that have possibly resulted in the lead poisoning of at least 65 children in the United States may have been intentional, according to a preliminary investigation.

    FDA's Deputy Commissioner for Human Foods Jim Jones told Politico that "all of the signals we're getting lead to an intentional act on the part of someone in the supply chain."

    The FDA has been investigating lead contamination in the applesauce products made by Florida-based food manufacturer WanaBana since October. WanaBana, along with other brands Weis and Schnucks, are linked to the same manufacturing facility in Ecuador.

    Updates from the agency as of Tuesday indicated that the FDA is also conducting on-site inspections of an Austrofoods facility, the South American exporter, and is working in conjunction with Ecuadorian authorities.

The fruits of globalism.
