the-more-u-know:

The milkshake:  This is not limited to fast food nor to milkshakes.  That ‘concoction’ is the industry standard artificial strawberry flavoring found in everything strawberry flavored that isn’t naturally flavored.

Chicken nuggets: Total lies.  My sister works at the Tyson plant that provides KFC and McDonalds their nuggets.  There’s no ‘pink paste’ stage.  ’Reflavoring’ is an injection of mostly salt into the meat in order to give it some taste because modern day chicken is nearly flavorless.  If you want to disgust people, show them the conditions of the processing plants that dismantle the chickens.

The pubic hair one: You eat more of your family’s pubic hairs cooking in your own home.  You think you don’t shed once you walk in your own door?

Peanut butter: This is a cold hard truth of food mass production.  There will be insects.  You can never get rid of them or take them out of the process.  The FDA places limits on how much can be allowed into specific foods so that food manufactories don’t get lazy and just say ‘Well we can’t keep it out.’  The FDA limit helps immensely because it makes these places try to keep the insect population down through keeping things clean.

Shellac: Oh my god this is so stupid.  ’Shellac’ is an INGREDIENT.  It’s a NATURAL PRODUCT produced by INSECTS.  It is then PROCESSED into food-grade glaze or colorants, OR into wood and furniture polish.  They don’t just take wood polish and dump it on your jawbreakers.  Grow up.

Bacteriophages: The ‘phages of which you speak are used to kill the listeria virus.  Listeria is a bacteria that attacks the immune system and has a one in five mortality rate.  Bacteriophages?  They’ve been used as an alternative to antibiotic medications in Russia and France for 90 years.  That’s really disgusting and dangerous!

Coke: This is total and complete bunk.  It would have been far more effective to point out that colas and carbonated drinks have been linked to weakened bones in those who overconsume them, but this is complete lies here.  Again.

Salads: I think you mean propylene glycol.  And again, this is bullshit.  PG only causes reactions in those allergic to it.  It has a very low toxicity and can only negatively affect human health if very large amounts are ingested very quickly and over a very short period of time.  By which I mean ‘Find a vat of it and start drinking it and nothing else.’  Again you go for the lie instead of pointing out that fast food salads are processed and contain as much fat and cholesterol as most of the other foods offered by a fast food place.

Beef additives: This has nothing to do with fast food.  This is common in MOST meats in the US.  This is because the US has become so obsessed with the fat content of meat and making it ‘healthy’ that we have literally bred almost all the flavor out of every food animal breed we currently use.  Flavorants are almost ALWAYS injected during processing or most of our meat would be bland and tasteless.   ‘Flavorants’ typically being concentrated broth and/or salt and seasoning.

Cheese: Lies again.  Only those cheeses labelled as ‘Pasteurized process cheese food’ and ‘Pasteurized process cheese spread’ match these stats.  Pasteurized process cheese is simply a blended cheese made to have a sharp taste and be easily melted.  Your lie here is that the 47% is referring to the cheese’s fat content, not cheese content.

This image is full of lies and misrepresented half-truths and anyone spreading this as truthful should rethink their approach.

Even if it was true, I’d still eat it.

I hate fast food anyway. Lies or not, I STILL don’t want to eat it due to the simple fact that fast food is not healthy food.

It will take just 37 seconds to read this and change your thinking..


Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.

One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs.

His bed was next to the room’s only window.

The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.

The men talked for hours on end.

They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation..

Every afternoon, when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.

The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.
Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.

As the man by the window described all this in exquisite details, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine this picturesque scene.

One warm afternoon, the man by the window described a parade passing by.

Although the other man could not hear the band - he could see it in his mind’s eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

Days, weeks and months passed.

One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep.

She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone.

Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the real world outside.
He strained to slowly turn to look out the window besides the bed.

It faced a blank wall.

The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window.

The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall.


She said, ‘Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you.’

Epilogue:

There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations.
Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled.
If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can’t buy.
‘Today is a gift, that is why it is called The Present .’

The origin of this letter is unknown, but please pass it on.
