Sick of buying products that are radically changed

*facepalm*

It's required to add it to the ingredients list, because it's purchased separately, and added in as an additional ingredient.

Example

What kind of shitty ice cream has that? That is stupid. Stop buying that $0.99 a gallon shit.

Today I cut up a mango and tasted it. It tasted like turpentine. I was like: "Didn't I read a thread about something tasting or smelling like turpentine yesterday?"

Turns out some cultivars of mango taste like turpentine.

What the fuck's the point of breeding that? "Mangoes look cool, but I've never really been a big fan of the way they taste. Is there a way that we could make them more like huffing gas, something I'm a big fan of, so that I could enjoy eating this groovy fruit along with everyone else?" Good business plan, that.

Maybe bodybuilders heart muscles get so thick with strength that there isn't enough room for blood in them.

Bodybuilders typically don't exercise their hearts very well. There are many stories of them dropping dead in their 50s (or younger) from heart disease. Good looking corpses, though.

If they cultivate anything other than turpentine mangos Monsanto extorts many a penny from them or send the geshtapo after them. Just kidding. Maybe.

I don't, but it exists. Breyers turning from value to plain junk, like the rest, has had an upside, though: less eating of ice cream, because almost all the good stuff is >$10/gal, now, with very little middle ground 🙂.

Many chocolate products have switched from all cocoa butter to vegetable oil. Cocoa power (and soy lecithin, also subsidized) is way cheaper than cocoa butter.

Sadly many people don't taste any difference (even becoming angered by any attempts to raise awareness) but to me it tastes like cocoa wax. Therefore companies get away with deceptively stating, for instance: "made with 100% cocoa!"

Absolutely no mention of cocoa butter. Yuk!

Another huge food substitute, as mentioned, cheap subsided corn byproducts.
