think of all the stupid unnecessary crap that companies add to their food to “make it taste good”, or “preserve it”.
Seriously, there’s high fructose corn syrup in everything that’s a beverage, pretty much, unless you’re drinking water.
Even then, a lot of brands add minerals “for taste”. Nestle Pure Life water, for example, has shit in it I can’t even pronounce on the label.
And I’d drink water from the purifier, but it’s still hard city water. I mean, if it makes your skin itch with a purifying thing on the showerhead, do you really wanna drink it?
And adding salt to everything, like nuts. It’s like companies picture that overweight, middle-aged guy sitting at Denny’s abusing a salt-shaker, and are like, “Salt would make these better! Everyone loves salt!” Seriously, nuts are good on their own, like dry roasted peanuts or pistacchios right out of the shell.
Just saying that if companies were so worried about our health, they should put less crap in their products.
I mean, we have a choice, definitely. But are you going to go without your favorite treats for the rest of your life? Do you have time to go around and pick stuff up and see if it’s “healthy” enough for you to eat? Of course you don’t. You don’t have the time because you work and wrangle your kids around and do other stressful everyday crap. Plus, produce does not last forever and not a whole lot of people can visit the store every week to pick up new produce. I just think companies should nix the unnecessary crap. People will still eat their products, probably buy more of them without the added crap, and thank them for it in the end. Am I right?
