And it would have been bad to eat quinoa 20 years ago before I knew how to pronounce it. Or shelled fresh soybeans (pronounce it? Heck, I can't remember the right name for it. I just call it shelled edamame, which is an oxymoron.)
Dihydrogen monoxide is scum. It's in EVERYTHING. Over 3,500 people a year die from it in the United States. If you're not careful, it can easily get into your lungs. How can they let food producers get away with this???????
Scary stuff. Somehow my kids got hooked on it too. They always are craving it after playing a soccer game or whatever...and they take the stuff to school too and the teachers encourage it. It's ridiculous. I feel like it's out of control, but nothing I can really do about it.5 -

There’s nothing natural about them. You literally are better off having real sugar but obviously in moderation.
And we're off!!
And it's closed. Lasted longer than I thought.7
