This is the truth - and it’s infuriating that assholes like RFK purport to want to remove nasty stuff from our food supply, but outside of total meme shit like a few red dyes and fake nonsense about seed oils being uniquely bad, he’s doing nothing to fix our insanely low quality and under regulated food supply.
I have had exactly the same experience as you every time I travel outside of the USA (luckily I’m already in good shape). I always come back skinnier than I left.
It’s infuriating that the only politicians who I can rely on to significantly regulate the ingredients in our food supply to remove slop will be hard left folks like Bernie Sanders - a breed of politicians which are going extinct.
But yes RFK, moving us to butter and tallow instead of fking seed oils will fix everything!!! (eyeroll)
I think there's just too much money in the way things are set up .
And that goes for almost everything in the United States. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to say food created using natural ingredients is probably better for you than something that came out of a lab. In the name of extending shelf life, everything is just saturated with as many preservatives as possible.
While this is great for something like emergency rations you shouldn't eat this stuff every day.
It's all about maximum profit. They sell us food that's optimized to remain sellable later.
Then this food makes you sick and depressed, so they sell you a bunch of drugs to "treat" that. The goal isn't healthy happy people. It's all about return customers.
