weird food rumours

[crudemood]

State weird food rumours you've heard that may or may not be true

For me I've heard:
- Mcdonalds burgers were made out of worms
- KFC's had their chickens modified with 6 legs
- not fast food, put unpasturized milk would leave alot of puss, watery kind and they add chalk to it, to whiten it.

that last one put me off milk for a while.. yuck
high school days are really retarded.

I don't think I know any food rumors. :I

McDonald's shakes are made from a base of pureed potatoes. Your milk shake from McD's is actually a potato shake.

[happiestmferoutthere]

Dr. Pepper is made from prunes.
I used to love Dr. Pepper, and all the asshole kids said it.

Red and processed meats cause an increased risk of cancer, especially lung cancer.

Not a rumor as much as it is fact.

Eating potassium cyanide will kill you.

crudemood- A lot of mass-produced milk does have hints of pus in it. Pus is just another term for white blood cells that gather at the site of inflammation- pasteurization kills bacteria in milk, so ther'es no risk of infection, it's just a scare word. There's blood in meat, and people don't seem fazed by that.

There was once a New York City ice cream company named Bungalow Bar, with trucks decorated with wood to made to them look a bungalow (picture below), which came to some of the boroughs of NYC during the warmer seasons. Good Humor ice cream was much more popular with children.

I have read that there was a false rumor implicating Bungalow Bar products with the spread of polio, but I do not remember hearing this in Brooklyn.

Here are several street chants that kids would sing when they saw the Bungalow Bar truck coming:

Bungalow Bar
tastes like tar
The more you eat
the sicker you are


Bungalow Bar
Tastes like tar
Put it in a jar
And throw it far

Bungalow Bar
Tastes like tar
Take a bite
And spit it far

hahaha i heard this shit TONS of times growing up....

Yellow #5 (food dye) in mellow yellow and mountin dew, makes your penis//balls smaller

Yeah, to think that puss was in it. TOTALLY put me off it. I couldnt drink milk without thinking about puss going down my throat. YUCK.
But I'm over it, if they don't kill you, they don't kill you.
Milk, does your body good. :)

I heard that KFC has the 3 second rule.

This isnt to do with eating, but smoking.

The song Mellow Yellow supposidly was hinting that smoking bananas get you high. They dont.

Maccy D's burgers are meat cut offs from the floor. Including dust [probably true ahha!]

[stinkyattic]

McDonald's milk shakes are in fact thickened with carageenan (a seaweed derivative) and a synthetic polymer that is useless as a thickener when exposed to Sodium chloride above a certain concentration. Put salt in your shake... it should thin down significantly.

Fig Newtons contain a measureable percentage by weight of fruit flies and their eggs.

Pineapple juice doesn't improve your sex life.

Scottish Haggis have longer legs on the right side than on the left, this enables them to run round about hills more easily as long as they are going anti clockwise.

One statement is true the other false.

I've heard breakfast is the most important meal of the day

I've heard fast food is bad for me

It's all bollox I say

I agree. I hardly EVER have breakfast, and dont think i ever did. I'm hungry when i wake up but i just cant face food. So now, my breakfast consists of a nice big joint and a refreshingly cold beer which wakes me up and relaxes me at the same time. Very rarely do i ever have brekkie, and it's only ever a good few hours after i've woken up. I supose it's more like lunch really. A nice big fry up every now and again is lovely.

And your right about the fast food thing - it's not bad for you. It's only bad if it's all you eat, and who on earth is stupid enough to do that? [Well, i supose alot of people - concidering everyones getting so fat]

Theres a song by lazyboy or something like that, about drugs and fastfood and the usual crap. It's quite humourous actually! And true! :D There a good bit about weed in it too.

Robert42 had a bit of it in his sig for AGES! I miss him. And MaryJaneScott and MaryJaneInTheCloset, and Cambam and CannabisCampbell - there loads of people that i miss. I dunno why but i was thinking about it last night.

The best thing for breakfast has to be a bowl, no wonder it's so important =]

The media tries to spin in, implying that kids who eat breakfast will do 'better' then someone who doesn't. I couldn't disagree more, it's all about motivation anyway. They're just trying to sell cereal. I am no less of a person if i don't eat breakfast, they may have more energy but not intelligence, breakfast doesn't magically equal brains.

Fast food is great, it's exactly what you said, don't eat it every day for every meal, exercise, you'll be fine. As long as i burn off the fat, i won't get fat, i'll never allow myself to get fat, i have too much pride.

I miss all those great people, there's so many, maybe they'll be back one day, i'll be around gettin high to welcome them.

I hear taco bell uses the same meat supplier as purina dog food.
Margarine is one molecule away from being a plastic bag.

Both statements are false.

Drinking pineapple juice is supposed to make certain male fluids taste better.

True: Cows generally live up to 21 years. However, milking cows only live 3-5 years, dying early from exhaustion. The milking cows meat then gets sold cheap to fast food chains.

I think you might mean colon cancer, and its true eating too much red meat increases the risk of colon cancer

strawberries, oysters, and pumpkin seeds are aphrodisiacs partly due to their zinc content.
hemp seeds have all the essential fatty acids and also boost the sex drive
onions, garlic, brussels sprouts are good for the liver
if you drink a lot of alcohol one night, drink a glass of water and a glass of orange juice before bed to recover better:)
k I guess those aren't weird food rumours but practical pointers

Aeromark, the company that does all the food supplying for the prison system and college system in NC, laces their foods with laxitives to stop the absorption of extra fat.

Straight from my brother. I can believe it too having attended UNC charlotte.
