Getting the Word out about 'Apeel'
From Valeria Wilson on "Moms Across America"
I have been telling everyone I come across about the new toxic coating ‘Apeel’ that has been approved to be put on our fruits and vegetables. So far, I have not come across anyone who has heard of it. I have a booth at the local farmer’s market and last Thursday, here in Westland, Michigan where I live, I had flyers to hand out about ‘Apeel’. No one had heard of it and the people who sell produce at the market had not either and they were very interested to learn more about it.

I received an email marketing piece about (of course) how wonderful it was.
"Apeel is composed entirely of purified monoglycerides and diglycerides, edible compounds that can be found in a variety of foods."
That last phrase is deliberately deceptive: compounds that can be found in a variety of foods. Do you remember the sugar substitute that marketed itself as having the same substances that can be found in bananas and milk?
