Scott C. Tips
After two years of Zoom meetings in place of live, in-person meetings, the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) finally met in-person once again in Rome, Italy during the week of November 21, 2022. Well, not quite. In deference to the on-going COVID-19 fear-mongering, it was actually a “hybrid” meeting where delegates...

Commercial Free Speech Wins Another Victory!

November 29, 2022
Scott C. Tips
One year ago, my article “The First Amendment Protects Vegan Creamery’s Right to Call Its Products ‘Butter’” appeared in WholeFoods Magazine and celebrated the legal victory of Miyoko’s Creamery over the State of California. The State had tried to prevent Miyoko’s from exercising its free-speech right to use the word...

Scott C. Tips
While almost all eyes have been focused recently on the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision overturning the pro-abortion Roe v. Wade case and on the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association case affirming the Second Amendment right to carry arms in public in New...

It’s Official, Courtesy Of Codex – Spiders, Ticks, And Lice For Breakfast, Oh My!

July 21, 2022
Scott C. Tips
 "Disgustingly, many delegates actually thanked [industry group] CropLife for presenting a plan on how to poison the World faster!" The new Chairman of the Codex Alimentarius Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR) is Guibiao Ye and he is an excellent chairman. Unlike some others I have encountered, he lets everyone...

Don’t Make the Mistake of Waiting Until It’s Too Late

May 24, 2022
Scott C. Tips
A friend of mine died recently. He was older, without being “elderly.” That is, he was in great health and not even one bit frail. Still, I had been hounding him off and on for several years to get his estate in order “just in case.” He didn’t have a...

The First Amendment Protects Vegan Creamery’s Right to Call Its Products “Butter”

November 18, 2021
Scott C. Tips
Call me crazy, but I’ve never been confused into thinking that peanut butter, cashew butter, almond butter, or even an olive-oil spread called “butter” was the same thing as dairy butter. Nor have I ever met another person who has confused a vegan butter product with real butter. Yet, there...

Scott C. Tips
About three decades ago, I was one of the food-and-drug attorneys involved in defending various persons and companies who for some time had been distributing an amino acid called GHB (gamma hydroxybutyrate), which although sold as a dietary supplement, had three remarkable characteristics: It helped users quickly fall asleep; It...
