Your Call 021609 Is the FDA looking out for us?

What will it take to ensure the Food and Drug Administration adequately regulates our food system? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about the FDA's food regulatory policies. The recent salmonella outbreak tied to the Peanut Corporation has killed eight and sickened more than 500 people across the country. How safe is our food system? What is the FDA doing to protect us? Is the agency on our side, or is it too close to food corporations? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Jaydee Hanson, a policy analyst on cloning with Center for Food Safety

William Hubbard, former Associate Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration
