I did an renovation and extension contract on a chicken processing factory. I don't eat chicken anymore and I try not to think about other food processing procedures.
I once delivered a load of packaging material to a turkey processing plant. I had plenty of reasons i dont eat turkey before that. And several more after i left that place. Ughh, the smell alone will do it.

Don't work in a restaurant is all I can say... .Unless you are trying to reduce spending of disposable income used for eating in restaurants.

Fast Food Nation is a phenomenal book.... If you are planning on a life of anorexia, etc.

It really is fantastic but you may wind up buying at whole foods for a while, desperately trying to convince yourself that the "organic" label you are reading is not just the Wizened, left over misshapen apples from Walmart.

Then again, the ability to handle a certain amount of horrible/gross does seem connected to the human condition somehow. We deal with toxins really. No nee to freak out over any one thing TOO much.

You’re referring to our president then? Not sure how well his super high priced private education took though. Probably best spent a n someone who was “intelligent” to begin with.

Are you referring to our forty-fourth president? Do not speak ill of the Messiah.

There is a cure for these issues. Watch the TV show called "Alone", I think it's on the History channel. People are dropped off in harsh wilderness completely alone (no camera crew, no producers, just them) and they have to survive. They start off thinking they will get enough fish, but by the end they are eating slugs, mice, ants/ant larva, snails, and even leeches...or just straight up starving. After watching that you will be a LOT more appreciative of your access to processed chicken, turkey, and fast food....no matter how gross that stuff really is.

I grew on rural acreage . We raised up our pet calves, lambs and piglets and then slaughtered and butchered them, stuck em in the freezer and then ate them.
We "processed" our own chooks(healthy/normal looking creatures . I have no problem with the whole concept of raising animals to slaughter, butcher and consume. I just wont be eating chicken from any of the major processing plants.

I don't have high expectations of the e-liquid that's mixed at a vape shop counter by a 19 year old who isn't wearing gloves and didn't wash his hands. But the companies selling e-liquid as "premium" could step up to show they are charging a premium for more than just a colorful label. I have seen some companies post independent laboratory tests showing that their e-liquid is diacetyl free. The independent testing could be expanded.

The same goes for companies that sell DIY ingredients.
 
The topic has strayed a little but it seems relevant somehow. If a scientific study down to the subatomic level shows particles of every known and unknown element/particle/ingredient/thingy on Earth, there should be no surprises that faecal matter is still traceable. After all, everything excretes, some, more than others. (You can tell by my posts) Some people pay top dollar for the privilege. Kopi Luwak comes to mind.

Maybe we should shut up before they send the prices sky high.
When all is said and done, everything returns to Earth. Profundity and it aint even Friday.
Picture this....meateors.

I think you know, but just to make sure... I was just teasing, Eskie.

The test results are actually very practical. Nothing was subatomic. And 8.01% 2-amino-octanoic acid is more than the nicotine they found. It's more than the nicotine that I use in my e-liquid.

Better off eating the packaging and 0 else IMHO. "Think of the children!"

The packaging might be the healthiest thing McDonald's serves. ;)

Actually, it's British. ;)

I'm off topic. I kinda assumed this was British the first time I got a notification here. It's a lot similar to another forum I am a member of, the notification, ratings and tabs etc. And that one I know is British. I wonder if that's software related or just a lot of dudes from that region likes this layout, or same web host.

Race Department, anyone?
