Baby food returns to some Texas store shelves Associated Press DALLAS — Some Texas grocery stores, reassured by the Food and Drug Administration that Gerber baby food is safe for infants, have started or plan to begin returning the jars to store shelves this week, of ficials said Tuesday. Tom Thumb and Kroger food stores removed the food from shelves last week after a woman re ported finding glass in a jar of strained peas Feb. 24 she bought at a Grand Prairie Kroger store. FDA regional director Don Heal- ton said tlie agency examined the contents of 9,310 jars and found four glass particles — three in one jar and one in another. Healton said the particles were small and probably wouldn’t have harmed a baby. Healton said he told grocers they face two problems. First, lie said, it is impossible to eliminate all glass particles from glass jars, even though the jars at the Gerber plant are carried through the plant upside-down, are blown out by a strong air current and are washed. He said jars are turned right side- up “less than 10 feet from the filler,” and are covered by a plastic shield at that time. The second problem, he said, is that “in opened containers pre sented to us by consumers, we’re finding larger fragments and larger numbers of fragments. We do not beleive this constitutes a manufac turing problem, but have been intro duced by someone after the con tainers left the factory.” Cattle drive bogged down, organizer says Associated Press AUSTIN — The official Sesqui- centennial cattle drive bogged down Tuesday, mostly because of prob lems with the event’s liability insur ance. Bill Minter, trail boss of the drive, said, “I’m just shut down.” The trail drive left Monday from Manor in the northeast outskirts of Austin. The 25 participants, with their horses and 49 longhorn steers, were at Elgin, east of Austin, Tuesday. Minter, one of the organizers of the 250-mile drive to Alvin, near Houston, said that when the drive began he was responsible only for gas and oil for vehicles accompany ing the drive. “Now, the food people backed down and the insurance people jumped up their premiums again,” Minter said. “I’ve run out of money. That’s what the story is.” Minter said he was not canceling his plans for the drive. “I have a longhorn steer that is broke to ride,” he said, “and if I have to I will put him out front on the highway. “But right now we just can’t move from here. We can’t move the cattle.” CO-SPONSORED WITH MSC CEPHEID VARIABLE i IfyouVe only seen this film on television, youVe never SEEN... let us entertain | > YOU.

Do you keep eating long after you’re full: Chances are, your insatiable hunger is for something more than food. You could be one of the millions of people who use food to fill an emptiness inside. A feeling of rejection. Frustration. Or loneliness. Yet the more you eat, the lonelier and more unhappy you become. It’s a vicious cycle. But it’s not your fault. It’s a disease called Bulimia or Bulimarexia. No one can recover by themselves. Will power doesn’t help. Dieting and pills only make the problem worse. Even therapy isn’t always successful.
