“Then on the Delaney clause, all we are saying, again, is we want the FDA to decide what the standard should be for products that might be remotely tested in animals to have some carcinogenic quality. It is the old story, you hear these stories, well, if you ate 500,000 pounds of grapes every day for the next 500,000 years, you might have a one-in-a-million chance of having cancer. That is sort of an absurd level of micromanagement. What we really want the FDA to do is tell us what is safe for our kids to eat, what is safe for us to eat, what will not increase our chances of cancer. And you tell us, you have got the experts, and we will make it apply nationwide.”
