dubious medical tests unapproved by the f.d.a.

of f.d.a. approval, yeah. mind you, the trouble may not be with the product. it may just be the surgeon.

the same standard is simply not reasonable. in fact, it's ridiculous. furthermore, f.d.a.'s existing regulations force businesses to provide information that is often useless to the consumer. the common sense nutrition disclosure act provides calorie information to the customers when it would actually be helpful before they order. knowing how many calories are in your meal is at the point -- at the point of purchase is not going to help everyone. having calorie information when you place your order will help customers make better decisions. the rules will expos restaurants and re-- expose restaurants and retailers to rsh -- and it will protect from frivolous lawsuits. our bill address impractical f.d.a. regulations. for example, fliers and advertisements were never meant to be menu but the f.d.a. said they consider them menus. f.d.a. had a chance to make corrections and they did not. this must be fixed and our bill does just that. this bill came to our subcommittee on health with a voice vote. in full committee, it passed with a bipartisan vote of 36-12-1. i look forward to passing h

an f.d.a. inspection in 2012 found the company's parmesan was actually a mixture of cheaper cheeses like swiss and cheddar, and in one case an unknown ingredient. >> advertising it as parmesan and romano and putting something else so the supplier could make more money. that's just clearly fraud on the consumer. >> reporter: this was fraudulent in your view? >> yes. >> reporter: but we found fraud might not be the worst of it. these f.d.a. records show finished cheese was stored in this unfridgerated room, which could cause bacteria to thrive. what's more, the company found listeria, a potentially deadly pathogen, in its production area ten times, but castle continued to produce and sell its cheese to stores like target and wal-mart without testing it. that might be troubling enough if we didn't also find records of agriculture which inspected castle around the same time as the f.d.a. those records tell a very different story. in june of 2012, state inspector david trotter wrote, "the plant continues to be in excellent condition. i appreciate the plant management and the quality work
