What? No trans fats in the protein bar, how can they call that healthy!

Fully hydrogenated rapeseed oil is a trans fat. All fats that are artificially hydrogenated, partially or otherwise, are trans fats.

IMO, General rule of thumb (of course there are exceptions, Yeah-Butts):
If it comes in packaging, it’s processed, and most likely contains preservatives. Therefore, garbage.
Alas, anything in moderation; nothing to extreme. {too extreme?}

This meme is good. Been eating cackle fruit just about every day.
Love those dark orange yolks that free range layers put out.
Let them keep eating bugs, Klaus.
Me, I’ll take 3 over easy with 4 rashers of bacon, some rye toast, black coffee, and if really hungee,
some hash browns with grilled onions folded in.

C’mon man! Everyone knows you can’t reach your depopulation goal by letting people eat natural, healthy food.

I avoid or limit any food that comes in package or bag, with the exception of some natural raw nut products.

That’s why I eat chocolate chip cookies instead of protein bars. If I’m going to eat crap, it might as well taste good.

Sometimes I skip the cooking too and just eat the chocolate chips right from the bag.

On the way to my mom’s cottage on Lake Ontario via Route 14, there is an Amish farm that sells one dozen pasture raised eggs for $2.25. We always stop and buy some.

Between Route 14 and Route 88, traveling is a nonstop delight of pure Whiteness.

You wouldn’t believe the culture in my mom’s community. People giving each other food constantly, doing favors, saying hello, watching each other’s homes, it’s everything that we lost as this country descended into the depths of Diversity. I’m enjoying living with her and helping her out. White neighborhoods are the best.

Amish chickens are better than Tyson by a long shot. In the midwest, buy Miller’s.
Best of Luck taking care of your family’s matriarch, Arch.
Enjoy the simple pleasures, before she sets sail for calmer harbors.

Even after Tyson sprinkles bonus protein bug powder on it? Damn, you just can’t make some people happy.

Years back I bought a golden plump chicken for about 99 cents a lb.
I also bought a free range chicken from a local farmer I had been buying grass fed beef from for years at $4 a lb.
I cooked them side by side, and no one in my family could tell the $4.00 chicken from the $16.00 chicken. Needless to say it was the last time I bought a $16 dollar chicken, though Biden has the price close to that for the store bought chicken now.

I used to go across the border to Ogdensburg frequently pre-lockdowns; it’s only two hours or so northeast from where you describe.I often saw the Amish shopping there, with their buggies and horses patiently waiting in the Walmart parking lot. The service, hospitality, and ambiance we experienced in upstate NY was a refreshing break from the norm.

Fast-Food Graveyard – Sickened for Profit

The modern food system is responsible for making swathes of humanity ill, causing unnecessary suffering and sending many people to an early grave. It is part of a grotesque food-pharma conveyor belt that results in massive profits for the dominant agrifood and pharmaceuticals corporations…

Consider that fast food is consumed by 85 million US citizens each day. Several chains are the primary suppliers of many school lunches. Some 30 million school meals are served to children each day…

In 2022, Moms Across America (MAA) and Children’s Health Defense (CHD) commissioned the testing of school lunches and found that 5.3 per cent contained carcinogenic, endocrine-disrupting and liver disease-causing glyphosate; 74 per cent contained at least one of 29 harmful pesticides; four veterinary drugs and hormones were found in nine of the 43 meals tested; and all of the lunches contained heavy metals at levels up to 6,293 times higher than the US Environmental Protection Agency’s maximum levels allowed in drinking water. Moreover, the majority of the meals were abysmally low in nutrients…

The Health Research Institute tested 42 fast-food meals from 21 locations nationwide. The top ten brands tested were McDonald’s, Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, TacoBell, Wendy’s, Dunkin’ Donuts, Burger King, Subway, Domino’s and Chipotle…

Three veterinary drugs and hormones were found in ten fast food samples tested. One sample from Chick-fil-A contained a contraceptive and antiparasitic called Nicarbazin, which has been prohibited.

Some 60 per cent of the samples contained the antibiotic Monesin, which is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for human use and has been shown to cause severe harm when consumed by humans.

40 per cent contained the antibiotic Narasin. MAA says that animal studies show this substance causes anorexia, diarrhoea, dyspnea, depression, ataxia, recumbency and death, among other things.

Monensin and Narasin are antibiotic ionophores, toxic to horses and dogs at extremely low levels, leaving their hind legs dysfunctional. Ionophores cause weight gain in beef and dairy cattle and are therefore widely used but also “cause acute cardiac rhabdomyocyte degeneration and necrosis”, according to a 2017 paper published in Reproductive and Developmental Toxicology (Second Edition).

For many years, ionophores have also been used to control coccidiosis in poultry. However, misuse of ionophores can cause toxicity with significant clinical symptoms. Studies show that ionophore toxicity mainly affects myocardial and skeletal muscle cells.

Only Chipotle and Subway had no detectable levels of veterinary drugs and hormones.

A friend/client sold his large (500+ employees) baking biz earlier this year. He made this comment to me 10+ years ago, as follows:

“We’re not in the baking business anymore, we’re in the chemistry business.”

I also would have sworn that I read a couple of years back that Tyson is now owned by a chinese entity … but searching on gaggle.com doesn’t show that.

Anyone?

Are you perhaps thinking of Smithfield?

Smithfield Foods was founded in Virginia in 1936, and its pork products are ubiquitous in U.S. supermarkets, but the company was actually bought by WH Group, formerly known as Shuanghui International, for $4.7 billion in 2013.

Tyson is listed on the NYSE. I’d be willing to bet that Red Chinese entities own a hefty % of it.

Yeah, but I don’t have to cook the protein bar. I only buy those when I have a low blood sugar attack at the grocery store, so I’m not sweating, shaking, and trying not to pass out in the checkout line. *shrug* So sue me.

Egg white protein is the most biologically available of any protein source, and was a staple of mine in my bodybuilding days. I never consumed any so-called protein bars, as they were heavily processed and filled with additives as can be seen in the ingredient description above.

Hardly any consumer understands basic nutrition, let alone the fact that not all “protein” is the same or equally beneficial.
