No wonder those things are addictive.

yeah but check out that iron source for that portion size!

pros and cons, man, pros and cons

NOW THAT is a funny post. XD

Humanity has been genetically modifying crops since farming began. Without GMOs, we never would have been able to start farming in the first place!

There's lots of reasons to not like Monsanto, like their refusal to let farmers save seeds or the horribly unsustainable way they meld their crop-breeding and pesticide sales. But GMO is not really one.
No, human bones can not enter the food supply chain.

Animal bones are sometimes ground into bonemeal and used as food (especially for pet cats and dogs). Humans, no, unless maybe you are in a country with very sketchy food practices.
*facepalm*

Food can't be infested with pesticides. Pesticides are not living critters that can infest something. Fresh fruits and veggies can have pesticides on them - organic versions have more pesticides, often, just of a slightly different type - but that's solved by washing.

Also, human bones are not allowed into the food supply in the US or any other developed nation, or in fact any nation that I have a passing familiarity with the food regulations for. IDK how things are in Cuba, but that is absolutely illegal in civilized places.

Lab rats...in pet food, maybe, ground up into feedmeal. But most lab rats need to be treated like hazardous waste because they were subject to experiments and can't be sold into the feed supply chain.

Re: Mayo
Mayo and mayonnaise are owned phrases. I think trademarked? Other companies can't use them, they have to say 'mayo-like', etc. It's got nothing to do with the food and everything to do with labeling.

Re: Food labels
Google is just a click away, my friend. Put something in and be shocked as you get a comprehensible response back that explains exactly what you searched for!

Re: Marketing and Labeling
Yeah, this is all kinds of messed up because marketers want you to buy products and will do just about anything to mislead you. Labeling in the US is extremely convoluted and unintuitive (see also: mayo vs mayo-like).

Re: Calories
This is middle school math, honey. There are a certain number of calories/gram, it's a simple 3-variable equation. If you really are getting a Comp Sci degree, you ought to be able to do this. Or write an app to do it for crying out loud if you can't find one already in the app store.

sure, you may read this first

i may used a wrong term, but i think you know what was meant by infested. what you say sounds wrong, unless you can proof with a link to an article, that fruits and veggies can have pesticides on them but not in them. thats physically and physiologically impossible.

That's true, but what does it have to do with food ingredients?

Is it because of that label on your forehead that says, "Contains 100% All Pure Beefcake"?

apparently it is. i think there's just no other reasonable point to incorporate human ramains into animal food.

And here I was worried you were running out of good jokes.

Have a well earned +1 from me. lol

Your link refers to an article in The Lancet which is a hypothesis; which means it is a theory which has not (yet) been proven right by emperical data. (The origin of bovine spongiform encephalopathy: the human prion disease hypothesis), and it talks about human remains (not bones) entering the food chain at a local level, not at an industrial level.

Industries are usually geared to create profit; I seriously wonder (doubt) whether processing human remains at a large scale is profitable, but I might be wrong.

I remember seeing a scifi movie once which explored the idea of a society which had eradicated disease; hunger and unemployment. The way they had reached this utopia: people over 65 had to report to a place where they were to be sent to a well deserved vacation - or so they were told. (Sounds familiar?) But ofcourse something else happened to them: they were processed into tablets to be sold as basis for the daily food supply.

In the meanwhile, back at the farm:

*A flash of light: the sensation of a sudden stop. You are not sure how much time has passed while you where unconscious. You open your eyes to find yourself deep within a marshy jungle...*

Keep healthy. ;-)

How is this even a thing, Canada? It's about as terrible as "free movement of capital" or "flat tax". I am disappoint.

Everything in the US is a scam. A company could probably sell acid in a bottle as a softdrink but when someone burns their head off they could successfully claim in court it wasn't their fault because it said on the fine print acid was in it. Because capitalism.

Dude, I don't think you read the article you're linking.

1) It's an untested theory
2) It says nothing about industrial food processes
3) It's about India, which has massive food contamination issues in general

No, it's just knowing how to cook.

In savory or salty food it's often MSG or MSG-derived, which is a huge problem for people who get migraines from MSG (guess how I know!). People know to avoid MSG if they have headaches often, so companies began calling it 'natural flavors', because it is natural.
