Normally I'm live and live with this kind of stuff but I think there is some scientific illiteracy that drives this stuff that's worrisome. Just WTF is "processed" food and do people think sugar somehow isn't "real" sugar unless it comes from sugar cane? :dunce:

It's bad enough when I can only get a crappy-tasting organic variety of some type of produce at the store,, but now people are getting squeamish over preservatives? Sure hope they don't go too light on those just to appease people peeing their pants over "chemicals!" :ohno:

As you're fond of saying... we get the government we deserve
and I wholeheartedly agree with you

Big Food gets exactly what it deserves
Big food shenanigans are a litany of shame
they are getting exactly what they deserve - just exactly right on the dot - what they deserve
