I have a theory. A conspiracy if you will. If someone in some sort of control wanted to cause food shortages they could make these companies issue recalls and cover the refunds and give them kickbacks for doing it. It doesn’t really hurt the public opinion of the companies bc people have such short attention spans. But they pull food out of the general supply. Like that freaking baby formula shortage.
That could be done, but I have another one for ya. Been hearing people getting sick on various foods of late. Beef, chicken, veg, mostly cheap/budget items. Chemical tastes, nausea, GI issues, malaise, hives, headaches, etc, etc. Maybe it's cheap imitation chyna crap finding its way into the food pipeline, or it's intentional. The former is worrying, the latter is rather terrifying. Glad I grow my veg and hunt for meat.
Interesting theory.
On a side note, have you ever checked the expiration date of your margarine (like Smart Balance spread)? It will make you go hmmm.
Nah. Spouse does.
Pretty much plastic
You know that stuff was invented as a feed for turkeys right? The turkeys died so they rescued it by marketing it to people.
--Things that make you go, "Hmmmm...",
Sauce please. Link please.
Oh dear ...
So I heard that decades ago from someone or other and I guess I never fact checked it. Go looking for some sauce and apparently:
Emperor Napoleon III of France offered a prize to anyone who could make a satisfactory butter alternative, suitable for use by the military and the poor. French chemist Hippolyte Mège-Mouriès invented a substance he called oleomargarine, which became shortened to the trade name margarine. Mège-Mouriès patented the concept in 1869 and expanded his initial manufacturing operation from France, but had little commercial success. In 1871, he sold the patent to the Dutch company Jurgens, now part of Unilever -Wikipedia
Oops, guess I have to stop using that now, apologies. And yet interesting, Unilever.
I 'member oleomargarine.
The wiki article was actually rather interesting. Apparently there was once a margarine made from coal. No, seriously, from freaking coal. Took a wacko process and some 40kg of coal was turned into a kg of "coal butter", discontinued due to "inefficiency" of the process. Wow, synthetic foods.
Stocking the bunkers.
I'm going with white hats wake up call to sheep to demand and eat better foods/baby formulas, etc
People can make baby food in the oven and then tossing into a blender.
