This is a good example of how easy it is to fool people if they don’t have their own understanding of how things work.
Highlighting this has been a priority in my parenting. My child is having a great time trying to scare friends about the dangers of the chemical dihydrogen monoxide, which is found in a surprisingly large number of manufactured foods.
Right. And wonder bread is awesome for your health.
Wonder Bread is horrible for your health, but it’s not because of “chemicals.”
Orange juice is also bad for your health BTW!
Nobody said it was. But it's not bad because of chemicals, because all bread is created with chemicals.
As for natural versus artificial - that's also bullshit. There's many natural ingredients that are poison, and many artificial ones that are good for you.
I mean, if I eat home made fried chicken everyday, you can bet your ass I'm not gonna live very long.
Asbestos is all natural.
Don't forget poison ivy, amanita mushrooms, and box jellyfish.
