Thanks, Nicola! Appreciate your note and link. There's another toxic tasteless additive I'm now aware of that I wasn't when I wrote the post. I went on a guided hike around the Wainuiomata Water Catchment area a couple of weekends ago (pix) which was both amazing and disturbing. The old growth forest is wondrous - and poisoned. I was surprised to learn how much 1080 is aerially dropped over the entire 7,350-hectare catchment area, contaminating the water supply and entire ecosystem. We do not know what chronic sublethal doses do to humans, but research shows infertility, hormonal dysfunction and mutations in several vertebrate species.* Sad also that AgResearch has discontinued research on alternatives to 1080 this past week. But happy to see that 92.5% of people from Kumara to Harihari opposed 1080 drops and the Westland Council is seeking a ban on the use of 1080. And in other good news, the enzyme that breaks down plaque that causes tooth decay has been deciphered, so another good reason to stop adding fluoride to the water. I love Waiwera water too! And their glass bottle. (And excited to try Antipodes' new Waiwera rose raspberry mamaku black fern toner, Ananda.)
