Abstract
The Food Quality Protection Act mandates that consumers be informed of the risks and benefits of pesticide chemical residues in food. But since these new consumer "right-to-know" provisions are not clearly articulated, consideration of the carefully scrutinized medical right to know offers insights into the kinds of information about food that may prove useful to consumers as well as to those charged with carrying out the provisions of the Act.
