BS.
What if I only eat zee bugs?
THIS IS THE KIND OF CRAP DEMS LOVE THROWING $$$$ AT.
But the study was flawed. 80% of the leftists showed not enough brain activity to register.
Another study supposedly “proving” we’re “born that way” and “there’s no such thing as free will”.
What is this nonsense about milk and eggs not being branded? I only buy Mayfield’s dairy products (they really are better, to my taste) and Vital Farms pastured eggs (which I think are best). I don’t even have to think about it. Just grab the Mayfield’s and the VF.
I myself prefer free range eggplant.
they were in non branded cartons
It’s kinda obvious who is a leftist when you go to Trader Joes...
The lobotomy scars are another good indicator of liberalism.
This sounds like a project funded by USAID.
Stalking them in their natural habitat is a mental and physical challenge....
I purchased a small cluster of Tomatoes On the Vine recently.
There were five tomatoes on that one vine, and each individual tomato had some kind of sticker on it showing a Bar Code. I don’t want to be bothered pulling itty bitty tags off my fresh produce. Will grocery stores ever go back to not slapping a paper label on every piece?
I thought this was already established with Birkenstocks?
I was surprised to learn that Democrats have any brain activity.
The person who buys red meat versus a person who buys tofu might indicate political leaning.
I read the opening, started thinking about it in that part of my noodle that I call “the lower 40.” It will think about anything, indiscriminately, and go hmmm.
Then I wondered, when I shop, can I tell who’s a conservative and who’s a liberal? Pictured some folks — sloppy Walmartians, tattooed persons, old ladies, people cussing, people with little kids, people with support animals...
Nope, can’t really sort them out politically.
Finally the higher points of my IQ kicked in, and hollered, “Who cares?”
So, how much funding did this bunch get for their silly investigation? And what can anyone do with the information? Birth another algorithm, perhaps?
We found that when making non-hypothetical, economic decisions about food, Republicans show greater neural activity than Democrats in specific regions of the brain, and Democrats have greater neural activity than Republicans in other regions, yet the ultimate food decisions are not significantly different between the two groups. There is no specific conservative, liberal, Republican, or Democrat “grocery shopping” region of the brain, which means political decisions, economic decisions, and day-to-day decisions such as food choices must be made using the available decision “hardware.”
I can't make sense of any of this. They say there are differences then they say there aren't differences.

Wrong. I’m eating Trader Joe’s dark chocolate orange sticks now. We go every once in a while, I’m a Patriot.
It sorta sounds like conservatives use the rational, male part of their brains to choose which item to buy, while lefties use the more emotional, feminine part of their fevered noggins.
