The state where people think running to a door faster than a disabled person, opening the door, and spreading their body over the span of the door and standing halfway in the opening with their dick pointed at you and motioning you through the narrower space they have created for someone with a known mobility impairment is doing you a favor and not sexual assault.

TBH if the EU already banned this dye then there’s probably a good reason for not using it and the US still doing so it because it’s cheaper for the companies at our expense so go Cali I guess

Im still not convinced those "my child ate red dye and now theyre crazy" posts are not just "my child ate 200 grams of sugar in 20 minutes and was very energetic and then very sleepy and out of it", becsuse that's normal sugar rush behaviour.

anything you eat that gives you stomach bloat could be giving you transient hypertention through the liver. any of the red colored kool-aids used to do it to me and give me headaches. it's not like it's toxic, plenty of normal foods can bloat me up depending on portion sizes or fat content or whatever.

They should make a law against people non consensually representing other peoples misinterpreted political opinions in a political climate where such opinions could be used for political leverage, particularly where state of emergency type situations have bipassed voter discretion and given state authorities direct legislation over matters which would otherwise require a vote.

A popular red food dye (cochineal?) Is made from the bodies of crushed insects. I am not kidding. I'm not sure if that's the same as Red Dye #2.

Ban all insects in food IMO, unless they're labelled as such on the packaging.

maybe we can put some chemicals in the water so people are just groovy to each other

i mean i'd love for politics to involve less lying and misrepresentation but at the end of the day it's a human deciding that and if you set up that power structure eventually it'll be occupied by the worst human in the world

All food should contain insects instead.

All food contains insects in one way or another but I mean on purpose.

At least here in Australia, there are jokes about not giving red cordial to kids. I've read that a red coloring that used to be used really did overstimulate people who consumed it. But according to the same article, it stopped being used decades ago. Maybe it's still in use in California, and it's use might explain some of the many flakes who live there.

insect carapaces are high in chitin, which acts as a good source of fiber as well as boosting the immune system, reducing inflammation and improving skin and nail health

You can’t put chemicals in the water though. People have been trying to put chemicals in the water every day since whenever and failing and getting angry about it. So it doesn’t matter what your opinion is.

Cochineal is much, much more expensive than synthetic food dyes, you should feel lucky to get to eat it.

The persistent argument, at least around here, is that the government needs to be given a fair opportunity and enough time to try to kill people. It wasn’t fair that their weapons failed and worthy of a perpetual murderous investigation where they are given a fair chance to prove their weapons on civilians. I DON’T agree with that.

Yes. How do you think dogs get glossy coats? For all the dogs I've ever met it's just constantly eating beetles.

I don't like Skittles, they react with the vinyl choride in my water causing me tremors and seizures. So I cut out the Skittles and upped the ivermectin to get me back to normal. Increased my daily Bud Ice intake also.
