But things with scientific sounding names scare me and therefore are bad.

you could argue that natural foods are full of natural chemicals, and you might be right.

however, it doesn't mean that people should eat soap and drink blinker fluid.

when people say "ewwww! chemicals in my food!" they usually mean additives like yellow 5, high fructose corn syrup, and other nasty junk that they don't want to be eating.

>>5092920
water may very well be a chemical, drink too little, you die of dehydration. drink too much, hyperwaterpoisoning electrolytes or something = death.

is walking into the woods and getting bit by a snake, a natural experience?

there are many good and bad natural things, but my point is that people usually mean this:

>I want a banana 100% natural with no chemicals

what they mean:

>banana.
>no bells
>no whistles
>no tricks
>no trucks

its like salted butter, alot of people just want to buy butter, but then they realize some jerk put extra salt in it, so they stop buying that brand, and buy another brand that stuck to the pure values of what real plain simple pure natural butter should be.

that is what people are doing right now. people are ceasing to buy things they don't like, and buying things that they DO like.

understand?

its silly to make the assumption that just because some uneducated people get scared when they see "sodium" on the label, that all people who avoid additives or "muh chemicals" in the foods they eat, that ALL people are stupid morons who are afraid of silly things.

this is a troll thread and I will explain why.

by making this assumption, the troll or pic related, attempts to imply that all people who want to make decisions about the way they eat, are simply too stupid to have the right to say "I wont eat this because I don't trust it"

you know what? if people don't like something they have the right to avoid it.

I wont eat high fructose corn syrup, and you shouldn't care.

Most people ARE stupid morons who are afraid of silly things.

It's not that they don't like it, for example corn syrup has a different taste than sugar; it's that they're uneducated fucktards.

This.

>all food has chemicals, nothing is natural, reality is a lie

The distinction comes from a food constructed perfectly by nature versus a food constructed by dumb humans who don't know the repurcussions of their actions and ingredients until it's too late

[Anonymous No.5093004]

>>5092988
I can understand your point of view, but it is silly to assume that ALL people are stupid.

there are plenty of soccer moms watching dr.ooz and shopping at whololo foods just because it makes them feel cool or smart, but there are genuinely many real people out there who really have a passion for eating healthy and really do know better.

how do I know this? well, besides meeting other people and talking to them and realizing that they have a brain in their heads, I know that there are other smart people out there that aren't morons like those you are talking about, because you yourself have an opinion about other people.

if you are smart enough to tell me "HELP. I SEE STUPID PEOPLE" then by giving you the benefit of the doubt I can carefully assume that you may be one of the smart ones.

so that makes two already. you and me. smart.

we are not alone, and while it may feel like we are the minority(and we might be just a bit) there are other smart people out there that shope the wholefoodwops with purpose and meaning, and to be honest, I don't mind seeing other "stupid" people shopping along side me.

people are just people. if they want to eat healthy, let them.

>>5093007
I didn't learn programming language, but are you further asserting your opinion that smart people are the minority and that stupid people severely outnumber smart people?

is that what you are saying? sorry If I am wrong.


If I am correct, I will say this:

we are trying. humanity is like a 5 year old trying to build a sand castle too close to the water at the beach. the waves just keep on coming and no matter how fast the kid builds, the waves just keep eroding their sand castle. yet humanity is a work in progress, and soon we will move the castle further from the water, and maybe make it out of wood, and then stone, and then metal, and then composite, and then super materials, and beyond.

however stupid and messed up we all are, we will prevail. somehow. ( unless the retarded world governments nuke each other and the whole world out of political stupidity) then we start alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll over.

But I am hopeful that we wont make that mistake again.

>implying this hasn't happened many times before and we haven't lost all our technology and had to start over many times, losing all records of history in the process.

but one of the things that gives me hope is the fact that we are still here. humanity isn't gone.

how are we still here?
