Cool? Are you on board with completely eliminating the FDA?

If I drank my coffee black
It's not as hard to do as you think.
I used to tell my friend he was an idiot for drinking black cofffe and it's gross.
Then I made myself do it and woudln't you know, i enjoy it a whole lot more now with nothing in it than i did back when i'd put sugar and milk in it.
Wife was the exact same way, and she sucked it up and drank it black and eventually came to appreciate it as well, and she thought it woudl be impossible to like black coffee.
It isn't all that great for the first week or so, and then you adjust to it and then you actually come to like it, and when you go to coffee shops and get different coffees, you can actually taste the difference in different types of coffee.
I liken it to the same as drinking bourbon with coke/sprite. When you go from drinking it with coke/sprite to just on the rocks, it takes some time to get used to. then you realize you weren't actually tasting the bourbon when you mixed it, and now you're drinking it neat b/c you actually want to taste it.

I'd rather have no FDA than an over restrictive government eliminating a lot of my freedoms.
I certainly wouldn't want to live in the UK or Canada right now, I'll take the USA.
The FDA is more than welcome to release their suggestions for me to read and make the decision of what I want to buy with the money I work for.

Fixing this is something that the majority of both sides could get on board for. Problem is the people in charge of doing won't. That's really shows issues with where we are as a nation. No longer a legit representative republic.

It took me about 2 days to adjust. Office ran out of sugar. Tried 1 cup each with an artificial and decided I didn't like any of those. Started drinking it black and I guess you could say I haven't gone back.

I don't give a frick, I don't want to. I enjoy my coffee with a little cream and sugar and I'm not changing that.

You do realize that there are healthy cereal options right? No one is forcing anyone to eat fruit loops for breakfast. Almost every grocery store probably has 10 if not 25 cereal options that are healthier.
Should we not sell candy either? Its not your job to police what anyone eats for breakfast.
Hell, I've had sugary cereal at night before. What does that make it? Should we sell it in a different aisle? Maybe we put the "healthy" cereal in a breakfast part of the aisle and everything else on the other side of the aisle?
Should we just outlaw cereal all together?
Why do we allow beer and liquor sales? Why do we allow popcicles and soda at all? Where should we stop?

I drank black coffee my entire life until about a year and a half ago, when I was going through chemo I couldnt handle it anyore and would throw it up.
Since then I've had to put sugar and coffee in it. Might be psychological, not sure but after a lifetime of black coffee, just cant do it anymore.

You're the one who jumped to assuming people are advocating for outlawing these foods altogether.
People are simply asking why are the same versions of foods are healthier in other countries.
Fruit Loops would still taste the same without the food dyes.

I'm guessing they could do a bunch of vids on meat supply.
Back in the 70's, I knew about the meat supply in the US and grocery stores. 60 lb blocks of frozen beef was shipped in from Argentina. After using these blocks years, it was found to contain horse meat. The blocks were cut up using the meat saw, water added, then ground up. This was basic ground meat.
Now for the better cuts, say ground round. After a few days in the meat case, the lights, temperature changes, folks picking through to get the better looking steaks. They'd take the round steaks you wouldn't buy, add water, run it through the grinder. Ground Round.
Back then, many can goods were 25 cents, you never marked them for a quarter. If you did, folks would buy 1,2,3 or so. When marked 4 for a dollar, folks always bought 4. Same price, better results.

fruit loop consumption remains optional
You know, you can only hand wave "personal choice" for so long. It completely ignores hundreds of other factors and pressures that play in to these things.
It's ridiculous that trying to hold companies accountable and questioning things somehow is a terrible thing.

What will you compare those suggestions to? Why would companies list ingredients or give any insight into the slop they serve you?

I support big food and think they should be allowed to up the ante with the things they put in food. The only people that buy things like fruit loops now that they cost like 12 bucks is people on food stamps
Instead of only putting preservatives and corn syrup they could add birth control and some sort of anti violence medication and we could save America

Educated people won’t but many people are not educated and/or don’t have access to healthier options. Lots of food deserts where the only options are dollar general tree and highly processed crap.
also Europe does not have that many shootings, but they do kill each other with knives and such. They do have less fat people there though.

For some it is a time and affordability issue...
For poor people going through chemo, working long hours, it is difficult to purchase and prepare fresh options, even though their doctors recommends this for health reasons.
I know about this firsthand and we're doing something to help.

You continue to miss the point, or you're just arguing to argue.
These companies shouldn't be allowed to manufacture food products that include known cancer causing chemicals, dyes, etc.
It's not about shutting down all cereal products. These companies use Americans as lab rats to see what this shite does to us. There unfortunately has to be heavy regulations for a product that is ingested by humans.
