    Those lifesaving chemicals are not what they’re putting in our food.

    TBHQ certainly isnt a lifesaving chemical. It shouldn’t even be in our bodies its a petroleum based product that contributes to a whole host of problems in our bodies.

    I’ll admit my statement on lethality is misguided when considering naturally occurring chemicals, the point that I’m making is that the shit synthetic chemicals that are put into our foods are accepted because they’re “within acceptable levels” when they shouldn’t be in our food at all considering the long term effects weren’t known when they were introduced into our food and now we are experiencing the health impacts. You are what you eat and cancer is booming.

    We need oxygen and water to live that’s conflating natural and synthetic chemicals which are completely different.

    While all chemicals have a theshold of toxicity regardless if they’re natural or synthetic, some natural chemicals we rely on to survive as opposed to synthetic chemicals which in the food industry only serves to either preserve food, make it taste a certain way, or maintain a specific color or consistency.

    We do not rely on these chemicals to survive and they are actually toxic to our bodies, cancer rates are on the rise because of synthetic chemicals that have been poisoning our foods for decades.

    Mmm yeah then you stick that delicious cup of peanut butter laden with man made chemicals like Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate (PGPR) and tert-Butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) into the garbage.

    Fuck Reese’s Peanut butter cups.

    I’ll stick to Unreal Peanut Butter Cups that are all natural.

    None of this gross shit that will have long term negative side effects on our health. Just because these big food corporations want to cut costs at the expense of our health.

    Some will say it’s “Generally Recognized As Safe” or “its only harmful in large doses” that’s Big AG propaganda. Generally Recognized As Safe is allowing the Food Industry to regulate itself, If it’s lethal at high doses its not good for you, period.

    A little bit of poison might get you sick but won’t kill you unless you take it at higher doses.

    If its not natural, its not good.
