Foods to Avoid
One thing to keep in mind is that the people who manufacture and distribute and sell these foods don't give a rat's fat ass what effect they will have on those who eat them. Their primary concern is making a profit. Neither is the government concerned enough to eliminate them from the market. After all, taxation of food is revenue. In other words, the only one who can protect you from harmful food is yourself.
Sounds easier said than done because it is easier said than done. Once we take a bite out of our favorite food we tend to forget all the negative things we know about it. It's like escaping into a world of gustatory pleasure where all worries are temporarily forgotten. But rest assured, that the consequences, such as heart attack, stroke or morbid obesity will not be so easily dismissed or forgotten once the kick in. Neither will be refraining from the food do any good once the damage is done.
I recently ate a whole pack of hot-dogs in one sitting knowing full well that they are packed with fat. What I didn't know was that they are also full of carcinogens in the form of preservatives. Was the risk of cancer, a stroke or heart attack work the momentary pleasure derived from eating that pack of hot dogs. I seriously doubt that will be my opinion if either of these horrible things occurs due to ingesting food that I should have avoided.
The following video provides a list of many foods considered tasty which people carelessly ingest. At least if you do come down with any of the sickness mentioned-it won't be because of ignorance. It will be due to a lack of self-control or just sheer stupidity. Or maybe suicidal tendencies? Who knows? Humans tend to be weird that way sometimes.
