It’s not going to stop until the only thing safe to eat in America is Hot Pockets and Purina.

    Are the “Make America Healthy Again” folks still happy with their choices?

    Those assholes won't be happy until we have a lot more people, including children, killed by their war on vaccines. Also, they want Fauci in prison.

    Because they are very stupid people.

    Can we just get a list of foods that don't have some disease all over them? It's basically just:

    Pie

    Salt

    Spaghetti

    Fish sticks

    On the flip side, GLP-1s tend to cause constipation. It just evens out.

    make every crap their pants

    I can understand wanting to make pants. I don't understand wanting to make a single crap into their pants, let alone the idea of making every crap into their pants. It's just wrong.

    There needs to be a rule for tagging something that's not global or international. This is mostly about the tons of US specific things posted like nothing else exists, like this post.

    Hampton Grocer has recalled its popular Lacnola Lactation Granola, after one of the ingredients, moringa powder, tested positive for the bacteria.

    Moringa powder? Never heard of it. I wonder what it's for...

    Moringa powder is a green superfood made from the dried, crushed leaves of the Moringa oleifera tree. It is packed with vitamins A and C, calcium, iron, and plant antioxidants, and people use it to boost energy, lower inflammation, and support overall wellness.

    Oh, cool, a completely unnecessary supplement ingredient with a bunch of gibberish medicinal claims.

    “I’d like to reiterate how difficult it is to have granola infected with salmonella. It’s even more difficult than chili peppers, and no, it’s not ‘foreign producers’ that are the problem,” Chef Joe Gera wrote on X. “It’s quality control and standards not being enforced.”

    They literally don't care about us. These giant corporations and rich assholes have almost all of the money and power, but it's never enough. They'll relax regulations and standards to increase profits and if people die, oh well!

    And funny enough because every supplier has now lowered their standards, it means every manufacturer has to spend more doing checks to see if raw materials are actually up to quality required.

    No they don't. They don't care about quality either.

    Up to the point that whatever they use or produce doesn't work anymore because of bad parts, or customers die, their stuff gets a reputation like the Ford Pinto and sales tank.

    With how many corporations have merged, they don't care anymore. They'll risk the loss because they can pivot to a different brand in their conglomerate.

    On anything that matters, try and buy local. The smaller the company, the less they can ignore risks like you mention.

    As always in life it's a little column a and b. I think what they're trying to get at is that this doesn't save any economic productivity in the long run and runs counter to the traditional "principles" of capitalism.

    We are the only developed country that has allowed salmonella in our chicken supply, after pressure from the industry. Propublica did a piece on it some years back.

    you know I heard we were heading towards a food safety crisis and at the time I kinda thought it was a bit fear mongery.

    now? not so much.

    The bigger danger is chemical contamination in the food supply, and it's harms will rarely if ever be recognized for their sources. Not unless we make them be recognized. Not an easy task with influence operations and social media being completely sold out.
