The Sh*t we put in our mouths
I'll start with storebought eggs.
Perfect shape, perfect texture, perfect color. The yolks are the same size and color, and these eggs come from genetically engineered "chickens". Yum! These chickens are fed genetically engineered soy. I call them SoyChickens.
You are what you eat! There is no more egg in these "eggs" than there is in dirt. They don't taste like anything anymore. The chickens are SOYturated. Yes, I agree that soy is an excellent source of protein, but it's not fit to replace the entire dietary intake of mankind. Soy has no caffeine in it, has no saturated fat, no refined sugar, no hydrocarbons! It's lacking in all the things that we require of sustainance! I want cholesterol! I want CARBS! I want STIMULANTS!
My husband has morphed into a walking peice of "Smeat". He likes "flakes of" in his sandwitches. Flakes of "ham", flakes of "chicken", flakes of "turkey". He mixes it with mayo and relish, and then, as if it suddenly makes Smeat good for you, he puts it in a whole wheat wrap.
I've made this for him before. If I took the labels off, they would be indistinguishable from one another.
"meat, mechanically separated meat, sodium, salt, meat byproducts, may or may not contain traces of meat, monosodium glutamate, soy and/or egg distillate(s)...''
In Canada, all products must display labels in French as well as English.
The French side of a carton of Eggnog reads "Lait de Poulet", translate this verbatim back to English, and it reads "Milk of Chicken". Almost made me stop drinking it.
