I know an inane thread, but I picked up a couple of snack sized bags of Veggie Straws for 33 cents a bag(a similar sized bag of Lay's potato chips would cost around $1.50)

Anyway I like Veggie straws, had a bag as a mid afternoon snack, when I was done I noticed that the nutritional information was in spanish. The title was in big english letters.

I know inane but I've noticed some Cheerio's boxes are now in spanish lately.

I’m sure they’re made with seed oil.

I am SO sick of "greenies", and trying to say what I should eat.

BTW, the Fedgov changed their "Nutrition Pyramid" again just recently. Think I will go fry up some some tasty burgers.

My ever-so-self-righteous former boss used to swear by them. She thought they were actually made from the vegetables depicted on the bag. I told her that they were essentially potato chips (primary ingredients are potato starch and potato flour). The rest was just flavoring.

You can use the free app “Yuka” to read the barcode of any processed food. It will rate that food from 0 to 100. It will give an explanation of its reasoning and list the additives in the food. It will give details on each additive, whether it is OK or harmful. Then you can make an informed decision about what you want to eat.

Take it from somebody who knows the system;
If you really, truly enjoy a certain food and or beverage, rest assured that food or beverage is ‘bad for you’ in some context.

If I may paraphrase, I believe it was the late Barry Goldwater who said;
“Extremism in the pursuit of ‘health’ is no virtue!!!”
(Exclamation marks are mine).

If it’s covered in salt and comes in a half-filled sold by weight, not by volume shiny plastic bag, yeah, pretty much, you can be sure there are much better things for you to eat

I basically just eat a rotisserie chicken and a Little Caesar pizza every day. Instead of chips, I take the skin off the chicken and run that through the air fryer.

Next they’ll be telling us that Bloody Mary mix isn’t a tomato smoothie.

[Celtic Conservative]

If they’re so concerned just make them out of dried pasta like they did in the 19th century. Nobody is tempted to eat those.

My wife brought those home touting their advertising.

I turned the bag over - to a big eyeroll - and called it worse than potato chips. “Junk.”

I stand by that statement.

I’ll take it you’re in Texas there, DallasBiff.
