(NaturalNews) The health-conscious community is rightly concerned over the pending passage of HR 875, the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009, which hammers small family farms with a whole new level of tyranny and oppression. The proposed law is chock full of ominous-sounding text that would allow government authorities to fine small farms $1 million a day while arresting and imprisoning their owners for refusing to spray toxic chemicals on their organic produce. (There are many other bizarre elements in this proposed law, too.)

But the law has a few other elements that no one is talking about, such as SEC 401 - Prohibited Acts (http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query...), which reads, "It is prohibited (1) to manufacture, introduce, deliver for introduction, or receive in interstate commerce any food that is adulterated, misbranded, or otherwise unsafe."

And that sentence, if actually enforced by the new FDA (Food Safety Agency), should immediately outlaw ALL foods containing:

• Aspartame
• MSG
• Partially-hydrogenated oils (an "adulteration")
• Homogenized milk (an "adulteration")
• Sodium nitrite

... and many other dangerous ingredients that I've written about for years on NaturalNews, and in my book Grocery Warning (http://www.truthpublishing.com/groc...)

Five years in prison for diet soda company executives?
