While we're beating people, i want to pick on (and my 'friend' already said this..) Aspartame (and #whoever's responsible), and along with that partially hydrogenated oils & poly-unsaturated fats.

i said whoever's responsible, but re partially hydrogenated oils & poly-unsaturated fats, i'm not bothering to kill the people between spaces here.. i'm killing #Capitalism, because even the #FDA couldn't prove enough..

Basically, #onescientist discovered a chemical by accident, #someone found out that it tasted sweet, #somecompany (general foods) wanted to sell it as an alternative to that bastard Sugar which is more healthy despite being unhealthy, they did the obligatory tests, they failed, they hid the evidence like the #tobacco companies (where #it's #lucky that their product rhymes with #smoke), then they #bribed several #FDA members to #pass the tests and push the product onto the #markets..

partially-hydrogenated oils are simply created due to a cheaper manufacturing process that i won't bother to get into - look into it - and they act as a veritable poison on the cells.  they kill you slowly & make you fat... and God knows, there are enough things making you fat these days.  #not-excluding Aspartame, for at least two reasons which I could go into, but I'm sure I already have somewhere..
