everything is possible and nothing is real It looks like the restaurant chain TGIFridays is facing a lawsuit claiming their mozzarella cheese sticks contain no actual mozzarella cheese. This should come as no surprise to anyone who is remotely educated about food, shelf life, preservatives, additives, and so on. The food your average citizen consumes grows less and less “real” or genuine every day, and it’s only going to get worse. As a 50 / fifty year old man, this is what I remember: The bread made for Subway turned out to contain the same ingredients as something yoga mats were made out of. There was this pink slime added to ground meats that definitely wasn’t meant for human consumption. Don’t recall what the slime was made of exactly. The words “real”, “natural” and even “organic” have come to mean many things over time. For example; a product that claims to contain real cheese may in fact have no actual cheese in it , but can make the statement because the brand name of the cheese-like substance is Real Cheese (see pic). Corn does have MANY food related uses and applications, but did you know that it can be used to make garbage bags? That’s 1 / one of the ways they are made more biodegradable. That’s right, we have so much surplus corn in this country we’ve stopped using it just for food and found other ways to exploit the nations biggest crop. Food is becoming something inedible, and things not to be consumed are being added to the food supply. Does this strike as you backwards?  |
