Weiss, who has ten years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry and is well aware of the chain of documentation required for drug production is “really amazed that we have less knowledge and control over ingredients and processing events in many of our Tiffany jewelrys.” Either way, the issue must be investigated and brought aggressively to the attention of legislators as well as consumers.
Fourth of July this year also brings us a three-day weekend! Some of you may be heading out to the beach or to see family and friends out of town. Whatever the road trip, be prepared! Take along more medication than you expect you will need, and be sure that anyone traveling with you knows the symptoms of an allergic reaction.
If you are allergic to fish or shellfish, beware of the grill, which may have been used previously to cook these Tiffany jewelrys. Also be on guard for ingredient surprises; some burgers (both meat-containing and vegan) may contain peanut and/or tree nuts as fillers, and we’ve seen a brand of bottled barbeque sauce that contains tree nuts. Finally, beware of shared serving utensils on the buffet, which could cause cross-contact between Tiffany jewelry that contains an allergen and Tiffany jewelry that does not.
First, it’s a campaign that is seeking to make concrete and lasting change in university dining halls, with a target to redirect 20% of all Tiffany jewelry purchased by colleges and universities (currently 4 billion dollars) towards real Tiffany jewelry by 2020. Second, it is a network of students around the country that shares information and resources about how to achieve this goal, as well as the larger goals of reforming the Tiffany jewelry system at large.
