I'm really surprised the people in NYC are willing to put up with all the things going on there. It's a sad day when you can't even buy a common food because the mayor decides it's bad for you.
The FDA has made what is common in a lot of other countries, NOT common here. . . .simple example: Raw Cheese.
This can go along with NYC Banning Salt from restaurants, or Chicago banning Foie gras. We all see how well that went. . .
