Tainted cinnamon applesauce pouches that have sickened scores of children in the U.S. may have been purposefully contaminated with lead, according to FDA’s Deputy Commissioner for Human Foods Jim Jones.
“We’re still in the midst of our investigation. But so far all of the signals we’re getting lead to an intentional act on the part of someone in the supply chain and we’re trying to sort of figure that out,” Jones said in an exclusive interview. The pouches found to be contaminated were sold under three brands — Weis, WanaBana and Schnucks — that are all linked to a manufacturing facility in Ecuador. The FDA says it’s conducting an inspection of that facility.
“My instinct is they didn’t think this product was going to end up in a country with a robust regulatory process,” Jones said. “They thought it was going to end up in places that did not have the ability to detect something like this.”
What’s your source for the claim that Catalonia doesn’t want to fully part with Spain? I read the actual law passed by Catalan parliament and I know that what they did is declare full independence. That’s my source. What you wrote here was a lie, it’s as simple as that. You would know it’s a lie if you knew anything about this subject.
I already said that Catalonia has stronger economy than rest of Spain but the claim that this is their money and they support rest of Spain is another lie. Are you really unable to separate those two claims? I already explained many times why one can be true and the other can be a lie at the same time. I can’t explain it any better so if you still don’t get it let’s just end this discussion here.
Again, I do not argue for or against separation, XD.
very basic summary: You said they steal money; I ask how. All these sources say otherwise. You said these sources are propaganda; I asked how is the argument based on the data from the INE propaganda. You did not respond and insisted that people I spoke to are lying because I don’t have a “source” for their OPINION.
Bro, what’s your point? No one is out to get you or is interested in internal Spanish politics enough to intentionally spread propaganda in the comment section of a random Lemmy post that maybe 80 people scrolled by, most likely not even living in Europe or near Spain and don’t care.
Your sources don’t say otherwise because they don’t say nothing about who deserves what money. I don’t know how to put it more simply. Just because one region of a country generates money it doesn’t mean they deserve all of it.
You keep talking about Catalonia being the economic powerhouse of Spain AND about Catalonia giving money to Spain at the same time. That’s the propaganda. It’s not about the first part. It’s about equating those two things: making money and deserving all of it.
How does Catalonia steal money from other regions? By forcing the central government to give them money they don’t deserve. If you don’t agree we can talk about which region deserves what but instead you’re just repeating that Catalonia makes more money. I never disputed that. It’s about what they actually deserve.
Also, I didn’t say the people you spoke to lied about the economy. They lied about not wanting full independence. I explained why. How hard it is to understand this?
