I could sure go for some Ivermectin squeezed on top of a hotdog and washed down with some motor oil about now.

Can I have a little sausage, as a treat?

I felt shitty, I made changes to my diet and exercise, I feel much better now.

It doesn't take research to convince me that processed foods, especially industrial, large scale, profit-above-all-else, processed food is bad for me.

These results shouldn't surprise anyone, and I don't think they do. But, people will find excuses to keep doing unhealthy things they enjoy, and that is their prerogative.

Some of this food isn't great for you, but if you only have it now and then it shouldn't be a problem.

Moderation and a diverse diet is key.

publishing this article three days before independance day is terrorism

edit: two days. Somehow I thought the fourth of july was on the fifth.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago

i usually use a little mnemonic device to remember exact dates for holidays. for fourth of July i try to match the last word with the month of the year and the first word with the day of the month.

i can't argue with toddlers

Jokes on them. I do tons of unsafe shit, and probably only one of those things is going to kill me. There will be no accountability for 99.9% of the bad behavior, including unregulated hotdog intake. Suckers.

For me, it's about the quality of life before I die, not which shitty thing I'm willingly doing to my body that ends up "winning".

Didn't think it needed the /s, but maybe it always needs the /s

Are the Germans dying in droves due to this?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

Ya well in the 70s and 80s this was what we as kids were given to eat.

I'm paying for that now

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

There is no safe amount? What? Not even zero?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 week ago (4 children)

sorry but one hotdog a day is not a small nor moderate amount.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

What I liked was their phrasing: "people who ate as little as one hot dog a day"

I'm assuming it's just the average though, I generally ingest my 7 hotdogs for Monday morning breakfast, and then eat healthy the rest of the week.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

One hotdog a day is little compared to the 30+ hot dogs day they are force feeding those poor albino rats.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

There are plenty of toddlers who'd disagree with you

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Right lol that’s an insane amount of hot dogs

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Every few trips to Costco already seems too often, but it is delicious.
