You don’t even want to get me started on all this commercial foodstuff boondoggle crap. If I lived alone, I’d grind my wheat, bake my bread, and eat it all by myself like the Little Red Hen. Well, that would be the ideal, anyhow…
When I see the bold-print “ALL NATURAL!” lies on the plastic packaging, I want to do an Ignatius Reilly turn and screech, “ABORTION!”
To paraphrase dear H.L. Mencken: “Nobody ever went broke underestimating the nutrition-disinformation of the American public”…
Actually, I wasn’t calling out your left-wing “natural” “vegan” deal, though I do agree with you wholeheartedly, you little socialist you. I’m more concerned about a packaged-goods company that would actually *tout* its “other natural flavor,” or the one that expects us to jump up and down because 8 is one-third greater than 6! As I’m frequently reminded, these peeps have exactly the same voting privilege as do you and I. *Sigh* Maybe the mass marketers are way ahead of me — or maybe they’re simply as dumb as I think they are. It can’t be their *customers* who are that dumb — can it?
