Poison in Campbell's soup. What about in Progresso? Also, a report this week about testing toys at major kids stores revealed high lead concentrations (Target, Clara's jewelry, ToysRUS).

Don't fool yourselves everyone, this is not unique to Campbell! I am sure that most other canned food (unless new types of cans lke with some organic companies, etc.) companies and food items are just as bad.

You can't call yourself an environmentalist and eat meat.

@Stephanie: Yes, you can eat meat and call yourself an environmentalist. It is not exactly about what you consume, but how much and in what fashion you consume. Too much consumption before the supply can be replenished is a bad thing. Over-consumption is the root of the issue here. Amazonian cattle industry should halt their efforts before more damage is done.

My, My such a large amount of lack of confidence. No, I've not completely forgiven President Clinton for his indescretions, BUT pelple change w/o coercion! Have none of you reading this changed - a major change, as you feel that the way you felt earlier on in your life was NOT the way you feel/support today? As Donna McGee states, "we grow at ... Read Moreunexpected moments in our life..." President Clinton is six months older than me; I have changed, so is it so difficult to believe that he has not? Gay marriage, and the rights and lack of respect, makes me feel that TOO many citizens in this country, sadly, suffer from homophobia. Why? Is it disgusting to you? I bet broccoli is, too. Put your insipid fears off of all burners, and give those who were born gay all rights that YOU, and I take for granted!!

I've reported your vulgar post, Justin.

I don't understand your statement about not having the right make comments if one doesn't know they're true. Are you questioning that Beck has indeed made racist and extremist comments? Really? Seriously? I've watched and heard Beck make such statements. He continues to make such statements.

Obviously, the petition is not a waste of time, since it has gotten results, as dozens of sponsors have withdrawn advertising from Beck's show.... Read More
