OPA warned against preservative-laced vegetables

KALIBO, Aklan, Dec. 19 (PNA) -- The Office of the Provincial Agriculture (OPA) urged Aklan residents to be vigilant against the high possibility of the proliferation of preservative-laced vegetable in the province.

Uldarico las Pinas, high value crops coordinator of OPA, on Monday, said that they received complaints from residents on the matter.

"Unfortunately, we do not have the capability to be scientific in our findings to prove that a certain vegetable, especially cabbage was laced with preservatives or was it made up of synthetic materials. We do not have available laboratory in the province to do the confirmation," he said.

Due to the said limitation, he said that the OPA does not have power to prosecute suspected sellers of preservative-laced vegetable.

"What we could only do is to warn the residents to be vigilant, especially this Christmas season. It should be better if they buy vegetables from backyard garden or plant their own to ensure their health," he said.

Residents here fear that they may incur cancer if they eat too much of these suspected preservative-laced or vegetables made of synthetic materials. (PNA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
