HFCS... Have fun chomping shit? There might be meme potential here 🤔

it's corn sugar. way worse than cane sugar.
high fructose corn syrup
i never heard of it in australia because we have sugar cane everywhere. all the way down to Sydney. in europe it's the norm, and used to be cane sugar before but all the colonies got ornery and they quit buying it from them and built factories to extract the sugars out of corn grown on the continent. but most of the corn is imported actually from the USA and so whatever happened there, happened also in europe.
it has got even worse now, because HFCS is bad but even worse is chemically treated maltodextrin. that is made by treating starch (from potatoes, i think) with sodium hydroxide. personally, that shit gives me actual toothaches, in my whole mouth, and it's really nasty to the kidneys, first time i encountered it, it was the sweetener in a cordial powder mix they gave us in prison. after i drink it, i piss brown. pissing brown means it's killing my kidneys.
Ah, strange that I didn't put that together. Everything in the US is made of HFCS, or a mix of HFCS and seed oils. There's no escaping it. I am fairly certain its only in Europe because of our corruption here. And what you say about kidneys... That explains some stuff. Crazy that no doctor has mentioned it to me. Useless people, truly.
Well anyways, how life at the new house?
Uh and if you piss brown, go to the doctor immediately. I've had that. Kidneys could be entirely shut down if you get that.
yeah, that's what maltodextrin does to you in larger amounts, by which i mean like 1/4 teaspoon. it goes away, but it does feel pretty bad.
all the synthetic and semisynthetic sweeteners are all nephrotoxic.
ah, it's quite nice here at the new house. about the only annoying thing is farmers nearby have some machine that makes a big bang every half hour or so. at first i thought they were shooting rabbits but no, i think it's to scare off pigeons that would eat the seeds tehy plant.
i'm very far away from anything, nearest place that is hardly ever open with groceries and stuff is a mile down a very steep hill, and then nearest after that is 4 miles away, and nearest proper supermarket is like 8 miles away.
and yeah, those doctors and the drug and food and agricultural companies are all pure fucking evil. the doctors depend on people getting sick, to sell them drugs that they wouldn't need if they ate proper food, and the farmers are herded into using all this shit, the pesticides, the GMO seeds, and the products are also toxic.
i sometimes get mildly suicidal over it because i have been sick from their steadily escalating buffet of poisons and "medicines" for the last 40 years and i suffer a lot of pain, my vision has been half way fucked up, my sleep is completely rekt most of the time, just slept about 5 hours last night and wake up wide awake.
oh yeah and of course, not to forget, the sun and earth join the party of death as well, i'm sure that the increased ingress of solar energy due to the weakening magnetic field is impacting me too, the stats on that are pretty clear: solar storms trigger people to go loopy.
Well hang in there. I'd be very sad if you disappeared from nostr. If there's anyone capable of hacking all these problems, its you.
yeah, i have found things now near me that are better... better than what i could get in any other place i've been in, in fact. the selection of beef and lamb at the nearby Continente supermarket is fantastic. aside from having a vegan in the house everything is way better.
A vegan in the house 😆😂
Maybe you can convert them to carnivore. Or eat a huge slab of meat in front of them 😂
nah the corruption is here in europe also. idk why you americans think it's not. pretty much exactly the same. it was better 20 years ago but definitely not now.
