We don't use it or add it to any of our products. I wouldn't say one way or

another what you should take from the studies. The reason I posted it is

that there was some news coverage here in Canada about it last week. I

posted only as a head's-up figuring some would like to know that there

" could " be an issue. I didn't do an exhaustive search but I'm sure you can

find more studies out there on the internet. I'm also sure some will say

avoid it, some will say it's ok. As with everything, the more information

we have, the more informed decisions we can make on everything we eat.
