WHY CANT STUFF STAY GOOD?
Why did these candy companies make STUPID,UN-NEEDED CHANGES TO THIER CANDY?? (Why did mars change to SKIM MILK/MILKFAT when they had the BEST candy ever...Same with HERSHEYS going to SOY LECITHIN) Why did Mcdonalds change the sauce on BIG MACS,why did they get rid of ORANGE DRINK?? Why did they change to WHITE MEAT on thier nuggets? (When they had gold mines on all counts) Why did Nabisco CHANGE OREO COOKIES (Added some stupid preservative and now they are aweful (The shell (MUCH WORSE THAN IN THE 80s WHEN I LOVED THEM!))) Web sites im on that used to look SO GOOD,now look like crap and i dont understand it!!!!!! Why are people satisfied with GARBAGE?? -- They wouldnt have been 10+ years ago!! WHY WHEN SOMETHING CHANGES IT GETS WORSE?? Almost 100% of the time!!!!! People have just become SO DUMBED DOWN its sickening as to what they consider good.. (Candy,etc) I just dont get it

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
I'll tell ya, I ask these very same questions all the time. I imagine it all comes down to money and greed on the company's part. They got these people sitting in a room just trying to figure out how they can shave a few cents off the manufacturing costs while charging people more for their products.
It comes down to them giving you as much nothing as they can for as much as they can possibly get away with charging you for them. |

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
healthier?
lol they have made it more toxic... lets just take one single thing that was pushed through and bypassed health safety regulations.. aspartame you cannot buy gum at all anymore without this fucking toxic chemical alternative surgar.. it's totally unhealthy.... I'm not a fan of wood alcohol being the end result of how aspartame breaks down floating around in my brain. it's been recently linked to the influx of peoples eyesight deteroriating faster.. While a pinch of it won't hurt emediately.. it's in so many things now and tastes like total shit, that death by 1000 cuts doesn't even begin to explain it. People only think short term nowadays... when they should be considering long term effects. Blindness and massive cell death counts aren't what i had in mind.. it's far worse then drinking every single day for days and days and years. Children shouldn't be having any of it. And that's just a single "artificial" toxic chemical being used. Healthier? My ass. People are getting sicker faster and more frequently today then they were years ago. and i'm not talking 20 years ago... i'm talking 50 years ago....

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
The amount of aspartame in a piece of gum is so minor there would be no ill effects. You'd have to chug a few aspartame soft drinks much like Dude111 does to wash down his Big Mac and Oreos to get enough of it to start doing some damage. Aspartame is mostly in junk food and many products are sold with or without it so it's avoidable.

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
that's a generic responce to the situation.
As i stated.... Aspartame still produces a wood alcohol when it breaks down... this isn't easily flushed out... i stated death by 1000 cuts... you have a single stick of gum lets say twice a day... you combine that with other foods.... shit look at the people drinking diet pops for example which has quite a fair share of aspartame.... mix that in with the sugarless sweetener for coffees and teas... I should find the interesting document where it took averages of the consumed aspartame by children and by adults.. and when it was figured out.... within a week, damage starts occuring due to frequent and consistant intake of aspartame over time, the damage compounds and is irriversable overtime. The resulting damage is loss of eyesight as i stated, not to mention countless other mental disorders can be linked to it. It's still a sythetic sugar, that did not pass health standards, it was meerly forced through and bypassed, which has a large world wide impact.... and frankly those connected to it's orginal "invention" should be clear evidence enough to be very doubtful of it's well being. All artificial and synthetic foods and alternatives that end up being eaten or digested in some form are justifiably being critisized and now more work and investigation into them are being exercised... But the fact remains.... the good old fashioned drinks and foods are superior to that of what we are forced fed daily without any choice. I haven't had a stick of gum for jesus.... probably 5+ years due to none being available in any store that doesn't have aspartame... Nothing beats a REAL home cooked meal with REAL out of the garden fruits/veggies without all the bullshit chemical warfare sprayed on them. And i'm greatful that i've had this from the start....

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
yup.. coca cola zero for example is even worse for you than regular coca cola, due to the amount of aspartame that substitutes for sugar.
Good thing I very rarely eat junk food, and never drink soft drinks. ![]() TS shouldn't be bitching about his junkfood getting disgusting. It already was, at least now he has a reason for not eating it.

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
Just an observation...... You could remove the junk food references and replace them with any other goods or service and make the same deduction..... everything is going down the tubes. Just sayin'

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
I have been drinking about 10-12 litres of diet coke (tastes better than regular coke) a week for about 15 years now. I don't need glasses to see, I haven't been diagnosed with any disease and I do not suffer from any allergies. If aspartame is really that bad then I should be dead by now.

Seriously though, that's actually a dangerous level of diet pop. Stick to regular sugary drinks they'll make you fat and rot your teeth but at least your body can metabolize it.

doesn't necessarily have to effect the eyes.. some people have issues elsewhere.. who knows.. maybe your body is better able to deal with the wood alcohol being produced.. or perhaps your system is emediately rejecting it and your pissing it out faster then it can destroy any specific part of your body.. long term wise.. you it might all show up at once....

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
Well it's not just Aspartame that they are adding to foods, look at the "healthy" foods that still have High Fructose Corn Syrup in it. They add it to damn near everything to give it a more "sweet" taste to it so that you keep eating and buying the same crap. It's still a type a sugar and it's more then what we should be taking in for sugar on a daily basis. Heinz had such a back lash from adding it to their ketchup that they quit adding it but that's just them. Even bread, which should be made of just wheat, yeast and maybe something else or two has it in it. In order to buy bread that doesn't have it in it, you're paying 1.50 more a loaf... Why?
The only reason I know any of this and Judas is right on almost everything he said, is that my daughter was diagnosed with ADHD and I have looked at removing a lot of crap from her diet which has kept her off of any of the drugs they were pushing and we haven't had any problems since changing her diet. The crap they are adding to our food is just nuts. Part of it is because we've over stressed this planet with over population and trying to make shit spread out further then it should but most of it is greed and money especially when it comes to HFCS where they are getting subsidized for using it instead of real sugar. It's bullshit if you ask me, it's almost as if the Food industry is working with the Medical industry so that they can both feed us crap, make us sick, and then be force fed their meds so that both industries are making a profit. |

haha no indeed.. those things are full of weird stuff.
Good bet that the flavours are all artificial with maybe 1% of real salt /vinegar

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
crap is cheaper to produce and its cheaper to sell and you sell loads so profits are higher, quality is much less and people just accept it

the list of alternative solutions laced with somewhy synthetic and totally unnaturally based form of food or other such applications that are used daily.. there was recently a writeup about decafinated (alternative) coffees showing signs of well bad stuff happenning. Worse yet is that food is being massed produced in such a way. Take chicken for example.... the various companies responcible for producing mass amounts of chicken are using a growth elixir to be able to grow chicken damn fast, under terrible conditions, and feed them food that basically makes them mutant chickens.... the benefits is being able to obviously produce larger chickens faster the downside now being taken into consideration is that these elixirs are still in the chickens.. and showing signs of effecting human as well as even cooked at high temperatures.. there is a small chance of it still making it into our bodies and actaully doing something. The list of thing is utterly enourmous. The plan is simple.... business... it's a create a problem.. provide a solution system.... MANY of the companies own or partially own every part of the entire industries.... meaning you poison the food.. you provide the drug to counter it... or you provide the bad drug and provide the "organic" food to counter it... many of the organic food is not even remotely organic.... 10% organic.. mixed with 90% bullshit again... Tip of the iceberg boys and girls..... the rabbit hole goes much much deeper ....

Considering how full our environment is with bad stuff it's impossible to produce anything completely organic. There's all kinds of stuff in the soil everywhere already.

Re: [Rant] Things getting worse
lets not get started on the spraying of aluminum and boriam in the atmosphere in order to attempt to control weather or sunlight..
This is also a fact.. It's called Chemtrails... or more accurately confirmed to be Geo-Engineering.. the is full documents on this... plenty of pictures.. I've even a relative that pilots these planes. Completely toxic .. killing plant life and animal life and sevearly hurting us. What's more idiotic.... Mosanto the creators of and basically the monopoly of the work in terms of these kind of things... always has a relation to the creation of aspartame as well.... corn syrups.. and bio-engineering too... have produced "solutions" and patents for plants/crops/grains that are resistant to these EXACT chemicals...
