It's hard to find a more balanced link!! But I found one and edited that part, leaving the previous link as an example of how this minor incident was politicized and became widely repeated. Does that work? For the record the quote I was looking at from the new article says: "Although catsup was not mentioned by name, the regulations did state that a catsup-like concentrate would qualify as a vegetable—so long as it was served with a healthy portion of another real vegetable, a point that got lost in the general handwringing."

Sorry about the "USDA passed a law" mistake. I should have said something like "the USDA proposed a set of regulations that were passed into law". I still object that as it's stated it is a half-truth, and happens to be a half-truth that is popular among Reagan bashers. But it's your site, and a minor point. I'm just trying to figure out how things work around here. [[User:Bwilliston|Bwilliston]] 13:42, 10 March 2007 (EST)
