"PRODUCT PLUNDER OF THE WEEK:
CANCER-CAUSING BENZENE IN SODA DRINKS
The problem of cancer causing benzene turning up in sodas seems to pop up in the U.S. with alarming regularity. Last week, the FDA reported that it tested 100 sodas and found unacceptable levels of the known carcinogen in five of the drinks. Some of these drinks had benzene levels nearly 100 times that which is considered safe by the EPA for drinking water. The toxin is formed when a soda manufacturer uses two ingredients: ascorbic acid and sodium benzoate or potassium benzoate.  These can react to form benzene.  Soda companies found to have dangerous levels of benzene have vowed to reformulate their drinks. In the meantime, boycott the following beverages and consider avoiding any soda with the "toxic two" ingredients, found in an astoundingly high number of popular drinks. (As a note, beverages labeled as "organic" cannot contain these ingredients.)

Sodas Found to Contain Carcinogenic Benzene:

    * Safeway Select Diet Orange
    * AquaCal Strawberry Flavored Water Beverage
    * Crystal Light Sunrise Classic Orange
    * Giant Light Cranberry Juice Cocktail
    * Crush Pineapple
