>buying something without checking the ingredients
Are you stupid or something?

>>13304286
well the other brands of poppers, even the grocery brand dont have any trans fats, i just thought it wasnt something id have to worry about anymore

>>13304271
Uh oh, did the government deregulate this and cause us to eat transfats again while we were busy talking about mass shootings and mexican kids in border camps?

>>13304271
poppers are for anal consumption not in the mouth so there may be different rules

>>13304271
Yeah, I don't think fat transgender people are banned here, bigot.

>>13304271
why would we ban things in the land of freedom? those look disgusting though these need to have cheddar cheese inside them

An obscure pizza place sold Jalapeno Poppers and I bought them one time
Instantly addicted
But they are so fucking expensive here, literally $2 ea
A single Jalapeno can go as high as $5
WTF do I do?
Jalapeno slices in a jar are cheap, can I just make cheese sticks with diced jalapeno?

I thought they were just banned at a local level from being used in restaurants
I'm sure you can still get them in grocery foods

>>13304756
Why not just make your own stuffed jalapeno poppers?

>>13304302
Based faggot

>>13304271
the corn nuts at HEB have no trans-fat but the corn nuts at Lowe's have trans fat
guess it's where they get their supply from and if they care enough to check if they're adhering to city law. non-grocery stores might have more trans-fat items as a general rule since food items aren't their forte.

>>13304756
Grow your own jalapenos bby. Chili plants are easy to grow

>>13304271
There's plenty of grocery store food that contains trans fat still, friend.

>>13305342
Do they grow instantly?

>>13305376
shut the fuck up and go pay top dollar dumbass

Added trans fats are banned. Dairy naturally has trans fats

>>13304271
There is some trans fat in animal fat (and some plant fats but it's minuscule)
Partially hydrogenated vegetable oils were banned

Wtf is a trans fat and why is it bad? It is [2019 years after the ANNO DOMINI] you bigots.

>Wtf is a trans fat

>>13305526
It was a scapegoat used by sugar companies during the obesity scare in the 2000s (and really before and after).

>>13304271
>trans fats were banned
Just like everything in the US, it’s banned for poor people, but large companies can still easily access these products and use them as long as you can throw a 0G on the box and call it a day

>>13305526

Trans fats are genuinely bad for you, but only if you’re a fat fuck retard or too stupid to eat in moderation.

>>13304271
>concerned about health
>buying 40-50 deep fried cheese snacks

>>13305526
It's a vegetable oil molecule that has a hydrogen atom added to make it solid or semi solid. The body can't really process it like it can saturated and unsaturated fats and basically it fucks ur shit. Banned in many first world countries and the US followed around 2015 iirc

>tfw pizza hut stopped selling poppers

Barbecue restaurant where I used to work made smoked jalapeno poppers wrapped in bacon. I'd bring home a handful every night because we couldn't keep them that long.
God I miss that place

>>13307317
thanks obama

>>13304302
it goes in via the nose but i appreciate somebody saying it

>>13307327
>tfw ive never had a popper

>>13307265
>DAE LE MODERATION

The actual law as set by the FDA is that food can contain no more than 0.5g of trans fats per serving

>I can only pay attention to one thing at a time!
Sad
