Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
They're the number one source of aflatoxin, the most cancer-causing molecule we know of. Okay, it it's in peanut butter, even good peanut butter, whatever it says good cuz it's got a nice sticker on it or something. A lot of people know about the lectins in peanuts, that those are a serious problem and the phytic acid and things like that, but what a lot of people don't know about is something called VLCFA, which is very long-chain fatty acids.
