Cow Enzymes In Your Cheese

Really? These are the 'grossest things' in your food? You aren't eating the right food then.

I mean Isinglass, seriously? Jesus people, I'd hate to imagine if you had to make venison sausage. Pantywaists.

This article reads like it was written like a very angry vegan. What baffles me most is how he rails against cellulose. Cellulose is in every green plant.

None of this surprises me. None of this is new information to me. Pass the Sriracha.

The only things that affect me are chicken and cheese and I eat organic no-hormone chicken (yes it's wildly expensive but whatever, I don't want to live like a lab rat) and cheese, which I understand has always used rennet as a starter in very minute amounts. I'd be more worried about a rennet substitute at this point, it's worked for thousands of years.

No... see, it wants to cross the road. It knows that crossing the road would make the other chickens happy, and maybe it would get the acceptance it craves. But it just can't seem to motivate itself. Maybe it's just used to failure. Maybe it would be better off just laying in the road until a car comes by. It's not like anyone would miss one chicken, right?

Jesus farking Christ! Any good brewer knows what isinglass comes from and is used for... Same goes for rennet and pepsin - these are enzymes that have been used in cheese-making since the beginning of time.

Probably the biggest thing to be concerned about is all the shiat in chicken if you aren't raising your own or buying from a reputable local source (KFC is not a reputable local source).

Yeah. That one struck me, too.

"THIS JUST IN! WE'VE UNCOVERED EVIDENCE OF A CONSPIRACY TO MAKE CHEESE USING RENNET, AN ENZYME TAKEN FROM COWS! WE ESTIMATE THAT THIS PRACTICE HAS BEEN GOING ON... uh. Since ever..."

So a guy goes into a luncheon counter and asks "What's the special today?"

Waiter says "Beef Tongue sandwich"

Guy goes "Eww, that's disgusting! I can't eat something that came out of a cows mouth! Just bring me an egg salad sandwich."

Lanolin isn't even close to the worst thing in gum base.

Fun fact:
Gum isn't food, so they can put all sorts of synthetic polymers into gum base that aren't normally allowed for human consumption.

None of that bothers me except the chicken thing. I've been reducing my chicken intake for a couple months, preferring to eat beef instead. Of course all of our meat production in this country is so perverted that about the only way you can eat healthy is by living on a farm and raising your own meat animals.

Ah, thank you, article. It's either "eat food with this shiat in it" or "eat vegan." Apparently, there's NO in-between.

I clicked expecting a rant about the number of fly eggs allowed in a slice of pizza or something, but it's just an article going on about chemicals found in food that are also found in not-food. And they missed silica. "What? SAND in my food??"

Most of the "horrors" described in TFA are naturally-derived substances that have been used in food production since before industrialization.

None of that made me even think it was bad. Cow enzymes in my cheese? Ya don't say!
The cereal was the dumbest one. Oh no, there is a plant based ingredient that provides the fiber that is advertised on the box! What were you expecting it to be? Magic?

Indeed. I'm all, "hoogizzashiat?" They might as well have subtitled that, "make fun of everyone who isn't vegan!"
