Damn she looks like shes smacked out, no wonder they revamped her image.
Tbh I only made the initial post to be a pedant because bored.Damn she looks like shes smacked out, no wonder they revamped her image.
Well I didn't know she started out as the least sexy pinup, so thanks for informing us.Tbh I only made the initial post to be a pedant because bored.
Sure, the "we can do it" poster originally had zero affiliation with Rosie, Rosie originates from a song. But at this point that poster is what comes up whenever Rosie is mentioned and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who knows the song even exists.
Here's another fun fact to leave you with:You know when I started this thread, I never expected it to be so educational
Did you know that, in addition to typical jewery, one of the major reasons all the food companies are owned by a few conglomerates is because when public perception on cigarettes started to shift, the cigarette companies pivoted to buying food companies and pumping up the addictive substances -- mainly fructose -- to keep the same business strategy?Here's another fun fact to leave you with:
Westinghouse Electric, where the poster in your OP comes from, is the same company Nikola Tesla worked for.
After a series of business dealings, it has split into CBS and Viacom.
Edit: I guess more shit happened since 2019. Both merged again and now operate as Paramount Global.

Unlike glucose and other caloric sources
man, a blind woman is probably the only ill ever get one to date my ugly ass.View attachment 7110204

why does she have the star of david on her gloves?
No that's a pentacle, she's clearly a witch.why does she have the star of david on her gloves?
You are illiterate."Processed" foods do not have a higher fructose to glucose ratio than "whole" foods. An apple, organic or not, has about a 2:1 ratio of fructose to glucose whereas HFCS has a roughly 1:1 ratio.
No, I understand your argument very well:You are illiterate.
No, I understand your argument very well:
The "core of the argument for whole foods" is that tobacco companies bought up a lot of the food companies and started loading them with addictive substances. Specifically, you cited fructose and sneed oils.
With regard to fructose, you argued that it does not provide the same feeling of satiation as "glucose and other caloric sources." So foods with "thousands of calories of corn syrup" added to them will not make someone feel as though they have taken in a adequate amount of food and therefore people will eat more.This argument only makes sense if you believe these processed foods have a higher ratio of fructose to other caloric sources, which I explained is patently false. HFCS has significantly LESS fructose than the same weight of sugar you would extract from an apple. Your argument is built upon a "fact" that simply isn't true.
I thought it was propaganda to get women into factories so the military industrial complex could continue since all the men had been drafted and now were being sent overseas to be mowed down or bombed or what have youRosie the Riveter was propaganda to get women into the workforce to double the tax revenue per household while oversaturating the labor market and devaluing labor and normalizing a dual-income household so employers don't have to pay men a wage that can sustain a family but that aside yeah I would.
Wrong. Fructose doesn't not make you satiated, it makes you the opposite of satiated. It makes you more hungry. The more you consume, the more you feel the need to consume. That's why it's profitable.No, I understand your argument very well:

That still does not address the fact that HFCS does not have more fructose than natural forms of sugar.Wrong. Fructose doesn't not make you satiated, it makes you the opposite of satiated.

Yeah "natural forms of sugar" being processed sugar. I don't know why you're unable to wrap your head around what I'm saying: taking compounds out of their natural sources which we evolved to consume, refining them and then consuming them at concentrations orders of magnitude higher than what we evolved to consume fucks you up. This is as true for HFCS as it is for sucrose as it is for seed oils as it is for LDL as it is for cocaine.That still does not address the fact that HFCS does not have more fructose than natural forms of sugar.
Hell, plain corn syrup is almost 100% glucose. Any argument which somehow hinges on the metabolism of fructose vs other forms of sugar is an absolute non-starter.
not to mention the reason HFCS is profitable is really because of US tariffs on sugar cane and US corn subsidies, which is the real reason you don't see it much outside of the US.
