I find this to be disturbing but not surprising. It makes me wonder if pm is going to be the FDA's next target...

why do you think I wanted to find a way to grow my own?

The FDA is not declaring walnuts illegal, but thy are saying that Diamond cannot make health claims to market their product unless it goes through the FDA approval process for a drug, because that is the FDA's mandate, to make sure that any substance advertised to have a health benefit must go through their approval process.

All Diamond has to do is stop making health claims in their advertising to get around this. They could just start a viral campaign saying that walnuts are good for you, but that wouldn't benefit their brand of walnuts specifically, so they chose to fight the mandate rather than just educate consumers that any walnuts are good for you. :}

The article is alarmist to say the least. The FDA appears to be doing the right thing and telling them they cannot advertise things that they cannot demonstrate the truth of. Making claims is not the accepted method of demonstrating validity. There is a process for it and many, many manufacturers are proof the process can be used. The core argument that shows the article's true bias is where they say let people try to cheat others and the market will punish them sufficiently; i.e. they don't agree that the government has any protective role to play in society. I'm surprised they don't go all the way and say that these things wouldn't happen if our children were better armed.

Where on earth does it say that?

And realistically the (US) Government isn't supposed to have a "Protective Role" any farther than Protecting the Nation's Borders.

Here is another Article on the Main OP Issue anyway.

I wonder what would happen if makers of Vitamin C put on their labels that it treats and cures scurvy? Vitamin D and rickets? Beriberi and Vitamin B1? Although, Congress and the FDA are trying to regulate supplements. (I'll have to get back to you on this, after I get another email on the subject.)

As for growing your own, you can grow your own nut trees. However, I have heard it said of these trees, walnut and pecan, that they are "Trees that you plant for your grandchildren." They tend to be slow growers. My mother planted a pecan tree and in ten years, it produced one nut.
