Could you tell us more about how it failed to meet the standard? Does this mean that "cold" pressing isn't an effective way to process the seed? I really like using the seed rather than the oil because of it's benefit for the colon, but I didn't know about the different ways they process the seed. I know the seed must be ground, and can't be whole, but I'm not sure what cold pressing means. I think it's great the government is taking an interest in this, and telling you that the product doesn't meet standard. Maybe the company will up the standard.
