Big in Japan: Eating Mozzarella cheese can kill you

As a Canadian already affected by our own Government's use of Agent Orange, Agent Purple and Agent White on us as Canadian soldiers in CFB Gagetown in New Brunswick Canada for more then 28 years, I fine it very hard to believe that only the Buffalo Cheese from Italy is contaminated with Dioxin.

It is well documented that dioxin attaches itself to fat molecules, leaving Olive Oil, Olives, meat products and many other products containing fat or preserved in fat also suspect for contamination with Dioxin.

It must be remembered that Dioxin is Bioaccumulative which basically means that once it is in your body in doesn't leave easily and that every with ever subsequent exposure to dioxin adds to the total amount in your body.

I and many thousands of other Canadians have experienced many of the medical conditions outlined for Vietnam Veterans and citizens and we can't afford any more dioxin, not even what Italy is now calling acceptable levels.

For now and until the Italian government can take complete control of its Provinces and the contamination problems that they are now attributing to the Mafia, I will buy no Italian further food product.
