They...Well, why not put it in tobacco and in booze? They aren't allowed those either so it'll be just as effective.<br /><br />Simon - Milk and butter are fat, eggs are cholesterol and Salmonella, in the simple minds of the population.<br /><br />So they pay more for watered-down low-fat milk (instead of just using less of the whole milk), buy plastic simulated butter and won't touch eggs until after they've hatched. <br /><br />Latest scare on shellfish involves something about prawn farmers crapping in the ponds. Nobody mentions the extensive food testing that goes on before the stuff gets on the shelves.<br /><br />Eggs actually aren't all that loaded with cholesterol anymore and are now a good source of Vitamin D. But don't try to tell the drones this. They won't believe it. Tell them eggs are radioactive, that alcoholics dribble on them and that all chicken farmers are chain smokers. They like to hear things like that.<br /><br />I've even had someone tell me olive oil is 'just fat in a bottle'. <br /><br />I've given up trying to educate them now. I just make their fantasies wilder.<br /><br />It's more fun.Leg-ironhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04932361799889315359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-55088632301203931102011-04-27T20:02:51.101+01:002011-04-27T20:02:51.101+01:00Shit loads of lava bread for the bints it is then....Shit loads of lava bread for the bints it is then.F***W*T TW****Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07120609386466244408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-2108933781821511862011-04-27T18:30:00.194+01:002011-04-27T18:30:00.194+01:00Iodine deficiency ? ...
