#19 it is not the bread of our youth- thanks for including memes on the food problems too.

True. Our bread these days is usually a horror show of chemicals. In Europe the situation is much better, generally just flour, yeast, and salt.

Ever since discovering that rapeseed (branded "Canola" to avoid the word "rape") oil is in literally just about everything, and that it's toxic until refined with some horrid chemical process, and then still slightly toxic, I've been trying to avoid it. But it's very difficult.

I took a flight recently and from the options offered, I picked a pack of almonds because that seemed unlikely to have Canola oil. I was wrong! They were literally coated with Canola oil and the ingredient list said so.

Are they trying to kill us with that shit, or is it just so cheap that they save money by using it?

It’s both: a win-win for the vipers. Just say no.

that one about stopping the voting made me decide I must go voting, even though I know it won't do a thing! even if the election is 20% rigged, I might be the one to tip the balance! Thanks for a super selection again.

Patrick, your posts are great twice: on first exposure, then when I come back the next day to collect and share the ones that stuck in my brain.
