But given that some contamination of the food supply is inevitable for any mode of production, given that the "subject" of our mode of production is capital itself and its purpose the accumulation thereof, don't you think that these limits were set with something besides (note I didn't write "else" there) people's health in mind? -- Curtiss, who despite this likes raw milk cheeses
PS. And of course, there's the question of whether or not these limits are even enforced....
