Seasonal Flavored Products I Don't Like Must be Stopped

Re: Pumpkin Spice Products Must be Stopped

Yes, there is a logic to food. Master chefs spend years learning this stuff.

And I say, let's take pumpkin spice beyond the realm of food. Bring on the pumpkin spice soaps, deodorants and colognes!

But seriously, the simple way to avoid all these pumpkin spice flavored things is to eat real, whole foods that you have to prepare yourself, instead of all the chemical-laden processed products that dominate the shelves at typical grocery stores.

Kor

You do realize that whole foods that you prepare yourself are made entirely of chemicals too, right?

Call Muad'Dib! He knows a thing or two about stopping spice.

I use half foods, myself. Sometimes it's bread and saran wrap; other times it's beef, broccoli, and those plastic rings you find on soda containers.

Claiming that "natural" foods are somehow healthier than "processed" ones is a marketing gimmick, nothing more. There's no such THING as "natural".

OK, I'll just live off of twinkies, TV dinners and Kraft macaroni and cheese from now on.

Yeah, processed foods are unhealthy (because of all the added sugar, salt, and fat that makes them processed), but that's got nothing to do with the nebulous notion of "chemicals" as you used the term. Everything is chemicals, and the chemophobia that's sweeping the nation is dangerous.

I admit my comment was imprecise for the sake of brevity.
I was also thinking of preservatives and nitrates. I would prefer to go without them as much as possible.

He'll, I'm getting old....I need all the preservatives I can get.

Preservatives are what will allow me to live to 500 while making me appear younger. Nitrates are necessary as a future method for restarting my heart every century or so.

I'm counting on genetically modified food to enhance my body, kind of like the Six million dollar man, but for the price of a daily cheeseburger and fries. They can rebuild me, we have the technology.

For that matter, so are you!

As far as I'm concerned, if something contains proteins, carbohydrates and/or lipids my body can assimilate, it's food.

OMG healthy eating zealots are as bad as religious zealots.

This is why I do not follow TV shows like The Biggest Loser. it's zealotry in nature and Michelle Bridges can go suck on a lemon...

Not meaning to go on a rant and sidetrack but that woman has made millions out of "healthy living" and pushing her views onto everyone..

Pumpkin Spice is the new fruitcake.

Now there's something I truly love. Dark, at least 50% fruit, and topped with nuts. I can wait until after the pumpkin spice goodies, though.

Have you tried the pumpkin spiced Oreo cookies? They are pretty good.

Re: Pumpkin Spice Products Must be Stopped

We used to have Farmer's Union brand egg nog on sale in Australia in the flavoured milk section. Used to be addicted to that stuff. It was yummy ..

Re: Pumpkin Spice Products Must be Stopped

I would love to have egg nog, but I can't. Well, I can, but I have to make it myself.
