Goyslop - Colors, Additives, Radiation, Sugar and Other Perils

Also that nose....
 
On Instagram and Telegram, I like Dr Eric Berg; he does short but informative nutrition and health-related clips:



Also on Instagram, thefoodbabe breaks down a lot of info about goyslop* and its ingredients
(*she doesn't call it that, haha)


It's best not to take nutrition advice from someone named foodbabe, just like you wouldn't take it from corrupt FDA. In this case she is probably just uneducated.
Rapeseed oils is extremely toxic stuff originally used only as machine oil and fried food in general isn't good for you, being highly cancerogebic and bad for stomach health, so UK is being poisoned by slightly different version of slop

Well, I'm judging by the content of her posts, not the color of her username. Pretty much everything she says checks out when compared to other sources.

In the specific post I linked to, she's not implying that all the UK ingredients are good, indeed she has plenty to say about canola aka rapeseed oil (none of it good). She's simply pointing out there are fewer bad ingredients than the US slop version.
 
This isn’t exactly news, as Oreo cookies have been around for a very long time now



Rapeseed oil started out as an industrial lubricant for steam engines in WW2.
It worked well because:

- Stayed liquid in cold temperatures
- Didn't break down easily under heat
- Created smooth mechanical operation

World War II: Massive demand for rapeseed oil in naval machinery. Canada grows millions of acres specifically for industrial lubricant production.

1945: War ends. Massive rapeseed surplus. No longer needed for ships.

Problem: What do we do with millions of gallons of industrial lubricant?

Someone has a brilliant idea: "What if we just tell people to eat it?"

Problem: Rapeseed oil contains 50% erucic acid, which is toxic to humans. Causes heart damage in animal studies.

Solution: Selective breeding to create low-erucic-acid varieties. "Canola" = "Canadian Oil, Low Acid"

1970s: Launch massive marketing campaign. Rapeseed sounds industrial. Call it "Canola" instead. Sounds friendly. Natural. Wholesome.

"Heart healthy!" "Better than butter!" "Low in saturated fat!"

Within 20 years, Canola oil is in everything.
What they don't mention:

- Still requires chemical extraction using hexane
- Still highly refined using heat and chemicals
- Still oxidises rapidly when heated
- Still high in omega-6 inflammatory fatty acids

You're eating steam engine lubricant that was rebranded as food after the war ended and they needed something to do with the surplus.

Next time you see "heart healthy Canola oil," remember:

- You're buying industrial lubricant with better marketing.
- Your great-grandmother cooked with butter and tallow from her local farm.
- You cook with chemical-extracted, heat-damaged, petroleum-processed machinery oil from industrial agriculture.

Progress.

^ This reminds me of a bread video I recently watched.

Take home on the video is that pretty much any bread you buy shouldn't really be considered food but rather a manufactured product that looks like bread.

It's pretty shocking.

They go into what medieval bread was like and how laborers could "just eat bread" and have energy all day to build things like cathedrals.

What was amazing to me is that even how we now use steel to mill the grain destroys essential nutritional oils that are preserved by milling with stone (less heat).

I suspect AI generation with the voice, etc. But it's still very informative.



What we have for bread now is little more than poison. All for convenience and profit.

The real test with bread is how fast it goes bad. Supermarket bread brands will not go bad after a couple of weeks in the back of th fridge, but bread bought from my local bakery will go moldy after a week or two, because it doesn't have industrial preservatives.
 



The new brand all the dumb girls are wearing is alo, it's all polyester. They are paying 10x markup for Walmart and temu clothes. I wear nice brands, don't get me wrong I won't wear anything that actually has the brand name displayed on it I'm not a billboard, but for my nice clothes I'll wear farragamo, Armani and Hugo boss among others because they fit well and last forever. So spending money on nice clothes i can't talk but to spend stupid money on polyester garbage has to be one of the dumbest things I can think of.



I was at Kroger yesterday looking for tortillas which should have like all of 5 ingredients. They were out of their organic brand which I usually get and they are delicious but had like 20 others I thought I could at least find one, nope they all had a CVS receipt worth of ingredients on the back.

I made meatloaf with my ground beef instead...

Share the same approach - spending more for quality products, saves You more in the long term. Although I'm not a fan of the so-called luxury brands, I put more effort into finding locally-made quality brands. Also, I buy some of my clothes in the same place I buy boating supplies. Kinda joking, but not really.

Locally made brands huh? Give me some examples that's interesting....

We've always had some great designers/craftsmen they just got overshadowed, and in many cases put out of business by large retail brands. Things have changed with the onset of online sales - it became easy to find and order made in the USA quality gear, one just have to do some research. So for example, I got myself lately a pair of Wyoming-made sweaters. 100% wool, no synthetics, sourced and made locally.
