Bill - You point is well taken, but, as I understand it, Surround is
nothing more than well machine kaolin clay. It is approved for use on
fruit surfaces that are actually eaten. It's a safe product. If I
were a rich man, I'd go for an unapproved use on an non-consumable
portion of a food plant. But, in the law, you are right. -Allan
