THESE WILL KILL YOU


Jonathan Benson has assembled a list of Nine Foods You Should Never Eat Again, complete with explanations and links to references for each.  For those who pay attention to health and diet, most entries are familiar.  A few may not be.  They include ~

  • white bread / refined flours
  • conventional frozen meals
  • white rice
  • microwavable popcorn
  • cured meat products with nitrates, nitrites
  • most conventional protein bars / energy bars
  • margarine
  • soy milk and soy-based meat substitutes
  • "diet" anything
My first thought was "only nine?"  Of course the list could be extended to include foods high in salt or sugar or fat, fast foods, etc.  But these nine items are a good start.  Check the article for more info on each entry.  What you find may creep you out, which is a good thing.
