Arsenic in Rice

Can we not trust anything that we don't grow ourselves?! One article suspected that some of the inorganic arsenic comes from fertilizing fields with chicken manure because some commercial chicken feed contains arsenic.

  1. Well, that's all I smell right now when I walk out my door. Chicken poop! They are putting it on every field in this valley this week. Everywhere. It looks so good though. All dark and loamy and makes me want some on my gardens. But no, not gonna do it. That's scary!
