    So many foods and cereals are being made here without it. It's an easy fix. If these reputable agencies are finding such serious correlations to cancer diagnoses then there is no excuse to keep adding it to foods that many many families and children eat every single day.

    BHT and BHA is found in foods like cereals and processed meats. There are alternative substances that can be used to preserve and prevent oxidation in foods. Let's ban these harmful chemicals, like other countries have.

    It is absolutely deplorable what our food industry is allowed to put into our foods. Obesity and Cancer Causing agents are in everything we eat and yet no one can figure out why America is so obese or why we have the highest rate of diabetes and cancer in the world. STOP putting these chemicals in our food, its literally killing us!!!

    This stuff had caused me agonizing body aches, nausea, vomitig, diarrhea and migraine like headaches for many years before I figured out the culprit! Even today, I can tell within a few hours when I accidentally consumed this poison. As with so many wrongs, it's legal because it's profitable.

    Would you eat a hand full of bha or bta or even better yet BPA. Well you have no option on the BPA because the world is coated in it but it's not to late to get rid of horrible chemicals in the food supply. Oh and did I mention I'm only 22 years of age and this is a life problem for me, please don't mess with the "pursuit of happiness", because it's hard for me to be happy with my body full of triclosan, bha, tbhq, Caesium-137, think about it please and thanks. Sincerely young American generation that wants to grow old

    If we can't be leaders at least follow the leaders in food safety! Come on remove BHT and BHA (and any similar replacers) from the food chain. You can make some substantive positive changes that affect us all and families and children. A win for the good guys ... it's time!

    This ingredient is banned virtually in every other country, except here in the United States. It's toxic. Why are we feeding this to our children?
