"To heighten their colour, the rhizomes from which the spice [tumeric] is extracted are routinely dusted with lead chromate, a neurotoxin.

@Huntn00 No. I don’t demand you pick a side. But if you’re going to criticize, you should be able to offer a solution. I feel that as long as Hamas as around, there is no solution beyond destroying Hamas. Unfortunately, they’re hiding amongst the innocent inhabitants of Gaza.
