You are what you eat...

Nemeses · 22-07-2013 04:02PM #1

So yeah, found this lovely article online (I get bored in work alot...) about the 9 foods I shouldn't eat. I lol'd at this a bit and got some dirty looks in the office..

http://www.trueactivist.com/nine-foods-you-should-never-eat-again/

The list:

1) White bread, refined flours.

2) Conventional frozen meals.

3) White rice.

4) Microwaveable popcorn.

5) Cured meat products with nitrates, nitrites.

6) Most conventional protein, energy bars.
7) Margarine.

8) Soy milk and soy-based meat substitutes.

9) “Diet” anything.

So if this article is fact...I've learnt something from it and taken my spin on it as my understanding of this is..........

1. Don't eat sandwiches or bread toast etc- They are toxic wrapped by Mr Brennan himself! *
2. Don't be lazy like me and cook a feckin' dinner, Buying Tesco's Finest MicroMeal is radioactive and could leave you walking away with a disease
3. Don't be rascist and eat Brown Rice - What did the fellas do to you in the first place?
4. Go buy popcorn in the cinema - Tatyo's Micropop are a hazard to your lungs and may stop you breathing, presumably by not choking on them...
5. Don't be getting them breakfast rolls from your local Spar at 6/7 in the morning - apparently they are cancerous.

My God, I'm only halfway and my life span has been shorten by a few years already.. carrying on..

6. For those energetic sports champs out there - don't bother with those engery bars - you'll get more energy licking the ground than from these chronic illness death bars
7. Don't be tight by buying margarine and go get some real butter from a Cow.. Or lard is a good alternative replacement for your lethal slice of toast in the morning (See point 1)
8. Soy Milk ? More like a cup of toxic waste bath water... very appealing.
9. Diet? More like die disguised as a 4 letter word..

So there you have it. If you are indeed you are what you eat and I am.. then I am a walking dead man and have planned my funeral for tomorrow as I clearly have poisoned my self to a degree where I am way beyond medical help!

Nice knowing you all!

* I do not know Mr Brennan, have no affixation with the company and other legal jargon that could get me into trouble..

I'm a big orange banana strawberry yoghurt.

NothingMan · 22-07-2013 04:05PM

I'm a level 7 vegan, so I don't eat anything that casts a shadow.

So in order to be healthy you have to spend a bloody fortune.

I'd rather be dead.

You should prove them all wrong and only eat what they tell you not to.

See what happens...

ScumLord · 22-07-2013 04:47PM

Life isn't worth living if you can't eat cured meat.

Thanks for the reassurance.

Now if I can relocate my pack of cigs I should be smoking it then

Staff Infection · 22-07-2013 05:00PM

Excellent, I may be immortal so as I don't eat any of the nine "killer food items". I may also be extremely dull and boring but that is the price I must pay for life eternal.

So you've never had bread, rice, toxic waste matter?

FreshKnickers · 22-07-2013 06:29PM

So what the hell am I going to do with my diet frozen, ready-meal pastrami sandwich buttered with margarine washed down with soybean milk-o substitute and popcorn with energy bar for dessert??!

Pug160 · 22-07-2013 06:38PM

1, 2, 3, 7 and 9 seem pretty obvious. I'm not sure I understand what ''conventional protein'' means. Did they elaborate on that?

Edit: Nevermind, I checked the link and they just mean most protein bars. The comma confused me.

No one will ever be in full agreement when it comes to nutrition anyway. There are too many grey areas.

Ah I never pay attention to this rubbish.

You could eat right, exercise all you want, and still drop dead of a heart-attack in the morning, or get run over by a bus etc

Besides the years this "unhealthy lifestyle" threatens to take off you are always those crappy ones at the end when your kids have stuck you in a home/flat where you live in fear of everything and unable to look after yourself

If that's the reward for "eating right" then you can keep it!

*mulls over ordering Chinese, chipper or pizza*

Lentils cast shadows when they are viewed from a certain angle

El_Dangeroso · 22-07-2013 07:39PM

1) White bread, refined flours.
Agreed, terrible for you.

2) Conventional frozen meals.
Ditto

3) White rice.
What?? Did someone tell the entire continent of Asia this?

4) Microwaveable popcorn.
Agreed, not many people realise these are the biggest source of trans-fats

5) Cured meat products with nitrates, nitrites.
BIG difference between a ganky hot dog and artisan prosciutto. The nitrite thing is a load of bollix, the biggest source of nitrite in our diets is leafy veg, which we know is very good for us. Issues may arise from heating nitrite but if you have a glass of orange juice with your bacon you'll be fine

6) Most conventional protein, energy bars.
Yeah, pretty much agree

7) Margarine.
Agree

8) Soy milk and soy-based meat substitutes.
Agree

9) “Diet” anything.
Agree

Basically you can't go too far wrong from eating things that ARE ingredients not MADE OF ingredients.

Well I'm a vegetarian so I abhor fun, I also don't eat lots of things on that list like nitrate meats as a result too.
Definitely haven't eaten any bread or white rice in the past five years anyway as I try to only eat complex carbohydrates (I'm keenly aware how dull that sounds). As for the toxic waste matter, well I do try but those fancy glow in the dark plutonium mushrooms are tempting by times

You are what you drink.........and I'm a bitter man.

krudler · 23-07-2013 03:02PM

Ah fcuk that, everything is bad for you and gives you cancer these days, if you lived on water and lentils you'd be told you'd get cancer from that too. I'll be enjoying my steak and beer and take up smoking cigars when I'm old.

You are what you eat...
