This was posted on one of my meetup groups and thought it would be a good idea pass it along.

Hello,

In 2007 we created a petition to rally support from all people
worldwide who care about preserving their diminishing health
freedom rights. We did this in response to a Federal mandate
that declared as of August 2007 that all RAW almonds grown in
the US were to be pasteurized.

Many American almond farming businesses went bankrupt as a
result of this ridiculous federal mandate. But thanks to all of
the help from the Cornucopia institute and the over 25,000
people who signed the "Mandatory Almond Pasteurization is
WRONG" we may soon be able to buy Raw California almonds again!

August 3, 2010 — LATEST UPDATE – Almond Farmers Win Appeals
Court Victory. Click here to see. We believe we have compelling
legal arguments and a strong lawsuit. It is our opinion that
the USDA exceeded its regulatory authority in imposing the raw
almond treatment. Even if the agency has the authority, its
badly bungled its enactment. The legal team assembled by
Cornucopia is working hard to successfully make the case.

But to be successful, the legal effort will need help from all
who want to preserve the right to truly raw, authentic almonds
grown in the United States.

PEOPLE, PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS NEXT SENTENCE: It is
imperative that we help the Cornucopia Institute win this
battle NOW because this victory will give us the foothold to
prevent the Government from further diminishing our health/food
freedom choices.
So here is what we are asking you to do:
-If you have not already, please sign the petition and send it
out to your email list. Forward this link to as many people as
possible and post it on all the social networking and blog
sites.

The Cornucopia Institute will be bringing this petition to
court to show that people care about their food freedom
choices, it will also be presented to the California Almond
Board, the FDA and the USDA.
Remember, soon Raw California almonds may be legal purchased
again and it is because of the support of people like you who
truly care about maintaining their health freedom rights. So
please continue to take action if you care about the health of
our species!

We need 100,000 signatures, please help us achieve this goal!

Thank You
