Ban the use of "Natural Flavors" & "Artificial Flavors" on food labels. The components of those flavors must be listed.

Many foods in America are processed with various chemicals and extracts that are legally labelled as "Natural Flavors" or "Artificial Flavors". These generic terms can cover any number of things from synthesized chemicals to petroleum extracts. At this time a company does not have to disclose what makes up its "Flavors" as long as they are from extracts and chemicals deemed "safe" in small amounts. However, some people would rather not ingest ingredients known to be toxic such as butyl acetate or amyl alcohol. Some people can have allergic reactions to combinations of these ingredients and may wish to know what ingredients are in their food before they buy it. This petition isn't to ban these ingredients, but to have them listed so people can make informed decisions when buying food.
