(New York, NY) -- New York Senator Chuck Schumer wants the Food
and Drug Administration to ban the use of a potentially cancer-
causing chemical in foods. Schumer says many fast food chains,
restaurants and groceries use the chemical to bleach bread and
make it "bouncier." But it's also used to make yoga mats and
shoe soles. Subway announced it would stop adding the chemical
to its bread last week after an online petition put the sandwich
chain at the center of controversy.
