We're really going to be fucked once AI figures out we only have 4 fingers and a thumb per hand.

Probably because the reason wasn't for sex.

No, the fox news channels and fox business was not part of that acquisition. Channels like FX and National Geographic films that were made by 21st Century Fox were part of the acquisition.

I had the same thought lol. It sounded too coherent to me.

I agree that you can avoid hitting the daily sugar thing (and avoid hfcs) by reading ingredients but I don't think many consumers do that. I certainly did not expect it find it in canned tomatoes and I use that in a lot of the recipes I found online. It makes sense why it's in there though if it's acting as a preservative. In fact, I'm going agree with a lot of folks here and just would like to send an end to corn subsidies.

So the problem with hfcs is that it's everywhere. And not just like juice, I'm talking like canned goods, deli meat, peanut butter, crackers, bread. So it's really hard to avoid unless you just make everything from scratch. And not I'm advocating for a total abolishment but it's easy to go over your daily sugar with it being in everything. I would try to limit it or maybe have a warning on packages. For the other person that linked a study, I looked into one of the guys that did it, and he does just like a lot of hfcs studies, like a weirdly amount and I found that kinda sus lol This site lists papers for and against the safety

Veronica: The company's position is that it's actually the opposite of racist, because it's not targeting black people. It's just ignoring them. They insist the worst people can call it is "indifferent."

Ted: Well, they know it has to be fixed, right? Please... at least say they know that.

Veronica: Of course they do, and they're working on it. In the meantime they'd like everyone to celebrate the fact that it sees Hispanics, Asians, Pacific Islanders, and Jews.
