I hate to burst anyone’s bubble, but they keep using the term “Petroleum Based” Chemical dyes. All our pharmaceuticals are from the same base chemicals.

Not a big deal. If you can no longer get Red No. 40, then use Red No. 39 as no one will know the difference.

I’ll stock up now. I’ll buy out every store in a 50 mile radius. May have to rent a U-haul.

Tumeric for food coloring? Yuck! No thank you, that stuff's healthy and we all know healthy stuff don't taste as good as the BAD stuff. Give me Red Dye #40 or give me death in a cereal bowl.

Yeah and that's not just the patients. The receptionists and nurses at my clinic can hold their own with Lizzie (before she got on Ozempic).

I was in Germany in 2000 for a business trip and I noted that there were practically no fat people around. People walked everywhere, because the stores were in the neighborhood, cars were unnecessary.

And German diet is not all that different than the American diet.

Conversely, when Europeans come to the US they are shocked at the obesity of Americans..........
