    It’s so bizarre to see this discussion play out on the basis of “health”

    Because there is a legitimate discussion to be had about the economics of how milk pasteurization requirements have affected local dairy farms. How the unsanitary conditions of industrial scale milk production have made it a necessity. How marketing and corporate interests have shifted consumption patterns.

    And yet these fucking dipshits have turned this in to “pasteurized milk personally harms you!” In grifter circles.

    How screwed are we that we can’t talk about the complexities of how corporate farming practices have effected our food supplies with out couching it in terms of “health food”.

    I cannot express how much I hate the term “health food”. There is no such fucking thing as a “health food”.

    It makes me want to rip my hair out when these topics come up.








  • Especially because that’s just the sandwich, not a side and a drink. A combo meal is like 10.15$

    I’m sorry but the quality of the food does not justify 10 dollars.

    For comparison, I remember in Berlin not even 5 years ago I got a currywurst with fries and a drink for 3.60 € (about 3.90$), and in London I got an absolute mound of fish and chips with peas for like 6.50 £ (about 8$). Both of these I got as much or way more food than a Big Mac combo and they were much better quality.

    Yah, mushrooms are not that hard to identify if you know what to look for. I worry people who do not know what to look for will be far too confident with such an imperfect tool.

    Especially with the growth of demand for foraged mushrooms in restaurants and supermarkets. It’s big money, and I have no doubt some “enterprising” people are going to get people hurt by trusting these tools too much.
