    All you haters, it's the stupid format mfp uses.

    I just think it's funny when I look at some of the comments people leave and then look at their pictures.. I guess keep doing what YOU think is right.

    Results may vary. ;)

    I eat some of those horrible chemical laden things. Want to talk about my picture? I had McDonalds and Pop Tarts this weekend.

    THE REALITY OF CHEMICAL TERRORISM IN OUR FOOD Is it really that hard for most people to believe that we are being assaulted on a daily basis by chemical terrorism? Genetically modified foods, artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, emulsifiers, and sweeteners all made with toxic chemicals, all of which are proven toxic to human health. We are being bombarded on a daily basis by an astronomical level of toxicity, all controlled by these chemical terrorists on behalf of the food industry. Worse is we let them.How many more toxins will we permit in our food supply before we stand united and simply say “we’ve had enough?” How long will it take until we assertively proclaim that we will not allow any more chemicals or toxins in our foods?Since food and health regulators cannot properly do their job to protect the public, there will come a tipping point when the people will have to do it for them. We discuss toxic chemicals almost every day, but what percentage of the population is interested enough, curious enough or most of all disciplined enough to actually make the dietary changes necessary to rid all the toxins from the foods they eat? How many people can avoid all processed foods every single day? I would estimate that percentage to be extremely small. Barriers are typically societal pressure, convenience and income. The reality is that we could all have a safe and healthy food industry if we truly wanted it. There are just not enough of us that want it that badly….yet.Every year or two we have a new chemical terrorist making its way into the food supply almost like clock work. Once the public becomes savvy to the harmful nature of the new toxin, it is then renamed, rebranded and often modified into a deadlier form than its predecessor. Aspartame and aminosweet, and high fructose corn syrup and corn sugar are two excellent examples.Let’s take a look at some of the biggest offenders that are in more than 80% of the foods we eat.Artificial Flavors and ColorsArtificial flavors and colors means it is derived from a chemical made in a laboratory and has no nutritional value. Every single artificial flavor and color in the food industry has some kind of detrimental health effect. These include neurotoxicity, organ, developmental, reproductive toxicity and cancer.* Examples- Glutamates- Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)- Maltodextrin- Autolyzed Yeast Extract- Disodium Guanylate- Disodium Inosinate- Blue 1, Blue 2- Yellow 5, Yellow 6- Red 3, Red 40Genetically Modified FoodsGM Foods causes allergies, organ damage, cancer, immunotoxicty, and damaging transgenes which affect future generations. Many fruits and vegetables for sale in the U.S. are already genetically modified. The most commercialized GM fruit is papaya from Hawaii—about half of Hawaii’s papayas are GM.* Examples- Corn flour, meal, oil, starch, gluten, and syrup- Corn Sweeteners such as fructose, dextrose, and glucose- Modified food starch- Soy flour, lecithin, protein, isolate, and isoflavone- Most vegetable oils and vegetable proteins- Canola oil (also called rapeseed oil)- Cottonseed oil- Anything not listed as 100% cane sugarToxic Preservatives Artificial preservatives are responsible for causing a host of health problems pertaining to respiratory tract, heart, blood and other. Some are very neurotoxic especially when combined with specific nutrients.* Examples- Antimicrobials- Nitrites (i.e. Sodium Nitrite)- Nitrates (i.e. Sodium Nitrate)- Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA)- Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT)- Sulfites (i.e. Sodium Sulfite)- Potassium Sorbate- Benzoic Acid- Propyl Gallate- Sodium BenzoateToxic Emulsifiers An emulsifier replaces surface proteins and aids in forming the network in specific food recipes. There are no healthy non-organic emulsifiers. They are all toxic causing everything from infertility, digestive disorders and migraines.* Examples - Polysorbate 80- Mono-diglycerides- Carrageenan- Xanthan Gum (non-organic)- Guar Gum- Soy Lecithin or Soya LecithinToxic SweetenersSweeteners such as Neotame are thousands of times sweeter than sugar. They are all very potent, neurotoxic, immunotoxic and excitotoxic.* Examples- Aspartame- High Fructose Corn Syrup- Neotame- Sucralose- Sodium cyclamate- Acesulfame-KToxic Adulterants Food fraud and economically motivated food adulteration is highlighted by some very toxic substances which cause cancer, glaucoma, digestive and liver disorders. These are added to foods to increase their color, volume or weight.* Examples- Metanil Yellow- Potassium bromate- Malachite Green- Tamarind seeds- Washing powder- Argemone seedsThis list is by no means extensive. There are now hundreds of toxic additives in our food supply. Chemical terrorism in our food supply must end and it starts with you.Please look at the ingredient lists before you purchase any processed foods. If you see any of these, don’t buy the product. Continue to educate yourself on the influx of new toxins introduced every year. Eventually, if we investigate enough the answers come. Rule of thumb, if the ingredient list has one chemical or more…it’s one too many.

    Strong effort!

    now that was funny. Ok himalayan crystal salt or sea salt. I definitely don't consume that dead sodium chloride.

    You know those are both sodium chloride too, right?

    I Would talk about your pictures but I like being nice. So I won't say anything other than, great dedication.

    Enjoy your bigmacs.

    Why so obsessed with everyone's pictures? All of us are works in progress, we are human, and we have opinions. You put a post up, we answer :-) It's the way society works my friend. Not everyone will share your opinion!

    What's wrong with people's pictures? what does that have to do with anything?

    Duh, some of us are fatties and fat makes it impossible for a brain to function at a rational level. Psh, learn to science.

    there was no effort required. Not only did he not write it, he admitted he didn't read it either....
    He is now in the process of being ridiculed for it and his response to that is to tell us all we have bad pictures lol

    Well you guys are definitely way too cool and way too smart for me.

    I'm happy that all of you are content with yourselves and don't care about what you put in your body.

    My only goal with that run on paragraph of information, was to maybe make people more aware of what they are putting in their systems.

    You guys are too much for me though. You all win. I will head back into my lovely vegan cloud and leave you all be.

    Hope you all do more research into what you put in your body.

    Ciao everyone

    I think we've done more research than you think we have. You have no idea what any of us eat. You make some huge assumptions about our diets that are more than a bit insulting.
