      …did you not? Physically by that age I was pretty done growing. Well. Except my stomach. I’m 40 now, and it keeps growing. But what am I SUPPOSED to do? STOP eating delicious bacon double cheeseburgers!!!

      Well…actually, yeah. Turns out theres a new trend males getting colon cancer at younger ages. Look, I accepted that those foods weren’t healthy. But I was always taught that the risk was you get real fat, and have heart problems later in life. NOBODY EVER SAID IT WAS GOING TO BE CANCER!!!

      Well, yeah. Turns out cancer. So now I can’t eat my favorite foods as much. Like…drastically cut them out of my life. So instead of 3-4 cheeseburgers a day, now I have like one a month…and I went a whole year without them.

      Guys. I think the FDA is letting things slip when my doctor went through 80-90% of my grocery shopping reciept and said “All of this needs to go. Most things pre-packed at the grocery store needs to go. I’m not even a fan of these cereals you bought.”

      God dammit, food. Why are you so delicious, but want to kill me? I just want to eat a hot dog injected with a glazed donut, fill the donut hole with a bite size snickers (sooooo …after shrinkflation, basically a regular size bar), deep fry the whole thing as a corndog, and feel all warm inside as I somehow don’t develop diabetes…which is weird, because I’m fatter than my dad, who has diabetes, yet somehow my blood sugar is healthier. Even my doctor is like “You ate HOW much sugar, and have healthy blood sugar??? Dafuq???”

      I don’t understand it either.

        this is by design

        they allow small amounts of poison in food, then explicitly tell people it’s poison through the media

        there are articles about how people use energy drinks mysteriously die sooner while the ingredients iinclude B-12 in a form bonded to cyanide

        there are too many people on the planet, it’s causing global warming, and we need to find any way possible to reduce the population so we are less likely to all die

        this is a very fair way of doing it. cigarettes will kill you, don’t smoke them, available in stores everywhere. YOLO, keep drinking until you get liver failure. why not have some delicious highly processed fake food with gut bacteria killing preservatives that will fuck your stomach microbiome? all of the poisons take years to kill you because frogs boiled slowly don’t jump out of the pot

        it’s awful but at least fair. we all get to “choose” and I put that in quotes because free will doesn’t exist. I say this as someone who consumes poison and can’t entirely stop despite knowing the consequences.

        a good rule of thumb: if it’s processed, it’s poison, if it won’t rot within a week unrefrigerated, it’s poison, if you feel very high and happy immediately following consuming it, it’s poison

        it’s hard because the right thing to do is drink water and eat vegetables and legumes and fresh things… but it’s hard because they have made food in a way in which addictive drugs are integrated into the food, and it’s not called that

        i know that coffee is for stupid people, but i drink it anyway because im addicted. i end up in pain and miserable and just say “fuck it” and it makes my health worse.
