i am so sick of reading "sugar/high fructose corn syrup/maltose/maltodextrin/cane juice/fruit concentrate" on every single pre-packaged food available.
it's even in bread. bread you buy at the store.
this is why i do my own baking.
i fuind it scummy how food companies will claim "made with fruit" on the front label, when on the back you read "fruit concentrate" which is fruit boiled down & sifted until there are no vitamins, no fiber, not any good thing left except the fructose.
it's sick. it's ugly. it's because consumers are addicted to sugars, which makes more money for the food companies.
what an ugly, distasteful truth.

one guy from the UK who I met near the Nile was telling me how those living in developing nations are going to be so much more healthy than the western world ten years from now because they leave their butchered meats to sit out in the open air for a day or two. Consequently their bodies have excellent immune systems while ours deteriorate because our companies fear every little thing that might be a problem with food so we process the crap out of it. anyway, yeah my body seems to be falling apart too as i return to the states and eat at restaurants. I must've farted over 100 times in the last few days, and all of them are rank. let's get together sometime with your boy Moose like we used to do.
peace
yes let's!
well, the meat companies here in the states label meat "hey! you gotta cook this extra hot because of the danger!"
not because meat is especially dangerous, but because they raise, butcher & package it uncleanly.
ah i see. maybe i'll start raising and slaughtering my own animals to avoid the packaging process :)
