Some years ago I read an
article that included a video which talked about Codex Alimentarius, and how foods would soon be categorized and regulated as drugs according to some vast corporate global conspiracy to control the world's food supply. Though the article was interesting and logical, I thought it was a little bit too "woo woo" conspiracy. Surely the very foods we eat in order to live would never be controlled as dangerous drugs. I mean really, what sort of precedent would that set, to allow the government to control our food in such a way?
And here is the video I mentioned above which was included in the article
"Let Them Eat Cake"
Well folks, I am sad to report that there is no exaggeration in either that article or the video. This is not conspiracy theory. This is conspiracy FACT, as of now...
