“The tertiary butylhydroquinone and dimethylpolysiloxane in the McNuggets probably pose no health risks,” Nestle said. “As a general rule parents shouldn’t feed their children foods with ingredients you can’t pronounce.”
I like the word "probably, very reassuring. Nestlé there's a beacon of truth. :)
Speaking of fat, the only fat I eat is butter and coldpressed oils. Most people would be shocked if they found out how margarine is made.

The only person who gets offended by what I have written is someone who feels the need to defend their own habits. If you didn't give a shit about McDonalds I doubt you would react to what I posted.
If you eat at McDonalds and enjoy it by all means keep doing it.
If you don't like what I post, I suggest you don't read it.
As far as salmon, I prefer pan-fried salmon. Wild salmon if possible. Salmon cakes sounds sacrilegious. Who in their right mind minces perfectly good meat to puré?
I'm not the least bit offended by what you say, that's my point! Everyone knows that it's not the best quality food out there, so why do people feel the need to point it out. The majority of this thread is just food snobbery and there is nothing more boring than a food snob with "a passion for food".
Food snobbery? How is not wanting to eat dyxlophenihixtramengalineturbolax food snobbery? Is trying to find alternatives to oil as a fuel, oil snobbery?
That you want to live in denial about what you put in your body is fine. But the more people "don't give a shit" the less options there are for those who want options.
Hence, the only way to battle apathy is with information. If I am a food snob in your eyes because of that, then yes, I am a food snob. And a proud one too.[/quote]
This is why you're a food snob. You seem to think that people who eat McDonalds do so through ignorance whilst you have some information that will enlighten us all like some kind of fast food prophet, we could call you McHammed. I know it's not good for me, same as I know Guinness won't give me a washboard stomach there's no denial here, the difference is I don't care.
