I wanna get physical!

Uncle Sam, Oh Uncle Sam, who are you doing now??

It's no secret that a whole lotta food, really is not food anymore, for the most part.

Deprived of nutrition, empty calories, Lotta high fructose corn syrup, etc...


My complaint is this.

They, the ever so dumb and greedy lawmakers, through the food and drug admin, they make our kids fat!!! Then they make laws to take our fat kids away!

kinda like the laws they make to enable drug lords to seduce our kids, then use the same law to put our kids away.


Is it any wonder Jesus said "Woe to you lawyers!"

Yep I concur with Jesus!

Keep in mind that human beings have been engaged in agrarian genetic engineering for 10K years. That we're now in a position to do it more efficiently shouldn't put us off these products -- their taste does that . . .

Also remember that the there's been very little data to suggest that the chemicals used to grow food efficiently do us measurable harm. (Like the MMGW thing, these are esthetically driven concerns, not issues rooted in solid science.)

The foods are a product of money hungry greedy corporations. The government doesn't tell you what to eat. You don't need to buy the crap at the grocery stores nor eat the crappy corn fed livestock. You can find a local coop or farm to get real whole foods. Or better yet, start foraging and eating wild foods. If we all started doing this at least a little, then the crap food system would fail.

I agree with everything but your second sentence. The Gvt does tell us what to eat! Just visit the F&D admin site and see, sweetie. But foraging for our own food would tell U Sam a lot, and I like the idea of the crap food system failing, so we can eat real again at a reasonable cost.

Thank you for your input!
