Just this last year, the president said this program was saving lives. We know of at least 50 threats that have been averted because of this information. Reporter but look at what this report says. It says we have not identified a single instance involving a threat to the United States in which the program has made a concrete difference. Not a single one, david.

And the Ambassador Says americans back home should be very concerned about what is happening here.

But could some actually cause cancer . Consumer reports tested 110 sodas from california and new york. They found some had an ingredient in the coloring called 4mei.

California requires a cancer warning on products that contain certain levels of the chemical. Consumers shouldnt have to be subjected to this unnecessary risk just to color food brown. Reporter but while the fda today said they have been looking into this, they did make clear they believe sodas are safe to drink. The American Beverage Association disagreed with Consumer Reports concerns, as did pepsi, which pointed out that it even adheres to californias toughestinthenation regulations.

Based on what we know right now, you would need to drink more than 1,000 cans of soda every day to take in as much of the chemical as the mice that got cancer. Im not concerned.
