Satire About Food

1,500 pounds of food each of us eats every year. Imagine that. Imagine how much aspartame, fluoride, BPA, genetically modified food, pesticides, high fructose corn syrup, pharmaceutical drugs and toxic vaccines that we all gladly consume every year. Since the introduction of food additives and unhealthiness, North Americans have experienced an increasing rate in medical problems such as obesity, heart attacks, diabetes and cancer at an alarming rate and it needs to stop, start supporting your local supermarkets where much more is fresh and farmers markets are a great alternative as well.
