What exactly is the consumer agency going to do for us? Tell us what we should and should not purchase?

I heard on the radio this morning that the FDA is recommending that consumers stop using zicam because it might damage the sense of smell. Now, if the FDA had proof that this was true, wouldn’t they force Zicam off the market, not just tell people not to buy it?

I think that they are punishing Zicam for advertising on the Rush Limbaugh show.

You may be right. The article I read said there were only 130 complaints out of millions of units sold.

This would be a trial lawyers dream, how could you prove someone could smell?

I do know that the idea of another federal office stinks.
