Processed foods aren't causing death.........

According to the "clean" and "unprocessed" food eaters here, eating processed man made foods will end up making us unhealthy and a quicker demise.
So then shouldn't we just inundate death row with processed foods? It would be legal.
Oh wait, we already do that, along with the lowest quality foods and medical service. And yet, these guys are still alive and costing the taxpayers.:laugh:

Although I don't have a bicep pic, I feel I can comment here ....
Maybe the inmates wouldn't live so long if they didn't have all that sweet workout equipment we see on tv.0 -

Processed food is good for you , GMO's are too ! Feed your kids that fluorescent yogurt and don't worry about 2 paragraphs of things you can't pronounce in the ingredients .

Always love the "if you can't pronounce it" statements. Like that's a pre requisite for "non chemical" foods!:laugh:Processed food is good for you , GMO's are too ! Feed your kids that fluorescent yogurt and don't worry about 2 paragraphs of things you can't pronounce in the ingredients .

Pronounce these: neohesperidin, naringin, rhoifolin, lonicerin, hesperidin, and other polymethoxyflavonoids (tangeretin, nobiletin, sinensetin, auranetin, rutin, etc.) dimethoxycoumarin and umbelliferone, citraurin, violaxanthin, and cryptoxanthin.
Believe it or not, that's the chemical make up of an orange peel.

I guess it's easier to adhere to pointless rules about eating foods based on one's linguistic skills or use words like "processed" or "chemicals" as if they have some meaning in the discussion, than it is to actually articulate the concern.0

It's an even more crap rule when you've worked in hospitals for years, so can say Latin and Greek words (and understand their entymology) as easily as breathing.0 -
I choose not to fill my body with man - added chemicals. You choose to do so.
Don't hate.
It's impossible to avoid it all..but you can avoid most of it. :~) and I intend to.
Oh yes.. and those chemicals.. I would put money on it that they are the cause of most disease.. of course.. we haven't lived long enough consuming them to really know.. since pre what.. 1960s?? almost nothing was processed??
Either way.. my clean unprocessed food tastes better and I feel fuller eating it. lol
ETA: Oh yes... I'll take the pixie stick injection.. minus the dye please.. LOL (sugar is natural ya know.. LOL)0 -

I always thought that was a silly statement. Some people don't even have problems pronouncing seemingly difficult to pronounce words. Ask me to spell it if you said the word to me, and yeah I probably couldn't. Slightly different skill. But I can say it if I'm looking at it.0 -

No hate. Just eye rolling the when it comes to those that say processed foods are killers. Lots of it in Asia. Spam, ramen, msg, sodium nitrate, but for some odd reason they don't have the issues (especially with weight) we do in the US.I choose not to fill my body with man - added chemicals. You choose to do so.

Call it waxing poetic, but I thought death was causing death. Nobody would be dead if they didn't die. Hm. It's a conundrum.0

So true. I can state with 100% confidence that the number one killer in the world is death.0 -

After eating my carry-out buffalo wild wings with Caribbean Jerk sauce and sipping my diet Squirt and having a two month old Twinkie (OMG - it's still fresh!) for desert...I am sure I definitely have no opinion about this.0

My granny was one of the most out of shape, junk food eating, cigarette smoking woman I ever knew. She weighted 135lbs when she passed away at 92. A few days before she stopped eating she asked us for a box of nutty buddys, a box of swiss cake rolls little debbies, a large cheese pizza, some mellow yellows, and a bag of marshmellows while she lay there and finished the last season of lost. We all sat with her chatting about her show and laughing, having a good time with her for days. She did finish her show a few days before she passed. I hope I live to be as old as she was.0

It really sucks for the illiterate...they can't eat anything because they can't even read it, let alone pronounce it...and forget knowing what it is. They're totally screwed.0 -
I wish everyone a long life no matter what their choices.
Here's a good read on why some people chose less processed eating:

If that does work, goes to webmd and searching on the terms diet longevity should take you there.0 -
Just stop beating a dead horse already :P Eat the best you can and don't answer to anyone but yourself. No one is on trail and no one frankly gives a **** what you do.0
