80% of Pre-Packaged Foods in America Are Banned in Other Countries | |
van down by the river User ID: 647094 United States 06/24/2013 03:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If you or your kids enjoy pre-packaged convenience foods commonly found in grocery stores across the U.S. such as Froot Loops, Swanson dinners, Mountain Dew, and frozen potato and bread products, you may think twice before purchasing them after hearing what they contain: dangerous chemicals that other countries around the globe have deemed toxic to the point that they're illegal, and companies are fined hundreds of thousands of dollars for including them in food products. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14894593 [link to shine.yahoo.com] Are we waking up?? ummmmm...kinda. smoking can kill you and also has chemicals in it that you would never ingest on their own, yet smoking is rampant in many of those countries that won't allow chemically processed foods in their stores or on people's tables. Apparently, there must not be enough money to be handed to governments to accept these nasty foods like there is for cigarettes. I wonder if any predominately muslim countries are banning any of these foods while still allowing their 5 yr old daughters to be promised to pedophiles or are still allowing honor killings. Just wondering... |

That being said, I've held a notion in my mind that wild game and fish are much better for you that processed foods. That is until I came to the realization that all of the deer, quail, rabbits, squirrels, etc are eating GMO corn and beans too! There is no escaping this fact. Quoting: anon 31497956 ^^^This!

Sure, there's a lot of unhealthy crap on the store shelves, but you don't HAVE to eat any of that, just buy the good stuff and be happy and healthy! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 300884 Isn't it that way in the US too? lol Fuck off. I've been to Sweden plenty of times and you have the same crap as we germans. Healthy ? Yeah right. There is no fucking organization or corporation that sells healthy food successfully for a longer period of time. It would be shut down right away. You're pretty frustrated, don't tell the guy to fuck off just because you don't agree with him, Germany is the wanna be USA from Europe and yes there's lots of healthy food around, in fact agriculture is one of the biggest industries in Portugal. You just won't see the healthy stuff on TV. Last Edited by isozy on 06/24/2013 03:38 PM "Give me control over a nations money and I care not who makes it's laws." |

Most other countries eat fresh food that were locally grown in there country from my experience. Quoting: AwesomeSauce No they don't. Most developed countries don't have diverse enough an agricultural output or industry to mainly eat what is grown in country.

Of course its all about money here in the US, if they can pay the food watchers off they sure will.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 42269146 New Zealand 06/24/2013 05:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Majority of Americans wanted GMO labels on their food, but GMO labeling in the US was shot down by Monsanto lobbyists and big food companies using gmos. They literally bribed politicians with over 60 million dollars and had the legislation thrown out. It's backfiring though as now a non-gmo label nongmoproject.com is taking off big time. 600 US food companies a month are signing up to obtain non-gmo status and get the label on their foods. All these doosh bags selling gmo foods will be SOL when people only want to buy food with the non-gmo project label. Basically I will not touch anything now without that label while I'm in the US. |

It doen't matter which fucking country you are from, because the major corporations on this planet supply the whole fucking world. So of course they will include the toxins also in other countries besides the US. All fucking governments work together, even if it doesn't seem like it at first glance. Now fuck off. |
