This should probably be posted on the Food Board but would be more interesting on the world-famous O-T Lounge.

I know O-T Ballers don't eat this shite because the ballers of the O-T treat their bodies like temples, but looks like they are now going after junk food!

quote:

Thousands of popular snacks could be banned due to ingredients that are linked to cancer as bills continue to advance in multiple states, the Daily Mail reports.

All of which are already prohibited in multiple European countries due to suspected health risks. New Jersey and Missouri are also reportedly considering similar bans to additives suspected to cause serious health risks which will outlaw brominated vegetable oil, potassium bromate, propylparaben and Red 3 additives linked to cancer and fertility issues -- but, but, but, it's ok to allow abortions!!!!!!!!!!

The additives targeted are included below:

Yellow 6-
linked to adrenal tumors (found in Lucky Charms, Trix, Froot Loops)

Yellow 5, Yellow 6-
can reportedly cause DNA mutations in white blood cells (Doritos, Ruffles, Cheetos)

Titanium Dioxide-
linked to lung cancer (cupcakes)

Blue 1-
reported concerns of causing kidney tumors (Oreos)

Red 40-
products must carry warning label in Europe, contains benzene, which is linked to blood cancers, possible (Duncan Hines 'Perfectly Moist' cake mix and icing, Pillsbury 'Funfetti' cake mix, various candies including Skittles, Sour Patch Kids and M&M's)

Food dyes-
linked to cancer and hyperactivity (Gatorade and Pedialyte)

Yellow 5-
Can cause cancer cells can grow faster upon exposure (Tostitos queso, Doritos 'Dip.')

The potential bans would force companies to remove the additives from their ingredients, which would force a drastic change to the look, taste and texture of various popular snacks.

I actually don't mind this. I hate that we have to legislate out ingredients that are proven to be non- beneficial at best, and out right bad for every human being at worst, but they are 100% non-necessary. Little Tommy doesn't care if his star marshmellows are a little less yellow or his Fanta isn't electric orange. He'll still drink it.

That is also what makes the cream in Oreos so bright white.

So, Oreos are basically weapons of mass destruction.

Hydrox would have never done this to us.

Time to get into the Black Snack Market.

Open up a trench coat and have all sorts of banned snacks and cereals.

The majority of this crap isn’t needed.

Been saying it for years. Especially the color dyes. Vaccines have nothing on our food.

I wonder what the toxic amounts are regarding some of this though.

Is it like drinking a gallon of yellow number 6 a day might give you a tumor one day.. or?
