Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

Sorry stupid thing keeps double posting

Hmm not motivated enough to go check those claims about margarine on snopes but it really does have the ring of a piece that may have exaggerated the truth a little

That said we don't eat margarine here either. I figure by the time you add a chemical to make it a solid and another to make it yellow and another to make it taste good there is no way it can be better for you than something with no additives.

The process used to make margarine makes the oil bad. It causes both cancer and heart problems. Crisco is bad for us too and it turns out that Lard is not bad for us. Go figure.

Because of the process and the type of oil used, Margarine goes rancid quickly and you can taste it as a funny taste.

It was one of the stupidest things the Government and the Oil companies did to us stop us from using healthy fats.

No, it doesn't cause heart disease and cancer like that. It only results in that if you eat to much, just like if you consume too much of any oil and fat. Margarine is made of generic vegetable oil and sometimes skim milk' making it go bad just the same as generic cooking oils.


No government or oil company is doing anything to you when it comes to margarine. That's a widely debunked hoax made up because of the word rape in rape seed. There are tons of credible articles about this' including Wikipedia (with citations), health sites, and science sites.

The only thing that comes close to oil companies doing anything wrong is the olive oil companies selling oil-just like the oil in margarine--instead of actual olive oil because the Italian mafia controls he trade in olive oil.

My daughter has Autism, and in the beginning, we researched all kinds of stuff about foods and additives. Some of the information gleaned was scary, to say the least. i will always stick to what my grandmother taught me as a kid........"anything in excess is bad for you, if you stick to the real stuff, in moderation (meaning butter, olive oil, cheese, etc.), you will be healthy, nutrition wise". THE KEY: MODERATION
Now I have been reading reports about how horrible canola oil is for you, neurologically, and the FDA has been pushing it for years because it is- according to FDA studies- supposed to be better for you...............
The FDA is made up of representatives of food manufacturers.........That's all I'm saying

I haven't looked up canola oil (my family has to use margarine fr my dad's allergies, which prompted us to research margarine and the worst we found was lard--too fatty and bad taste--and milk-the stuff my dad is allergic to--that was it.


The FDA is very much controlled by people with strong connections to the food industry, but the industry is monsanto--a very creepy corporation indeed. It doesn't control all food--thank goodness.


Thankfully, most anyone can o some easy for research on other food these days. Personally, I think it makes food more interesting to know here it came from and how it was made.

Not to crash anyone's 'party', but isn't this thread supposed to be about chickens? I mean this stuff on food is interesting, but I kind of miss the crazy things people say about chickens. Thank you.

I was cracking eggs for a cake, into a black cup so that i could pick out a shell if one fell in... My aunt by marriage (who is dirty minded) points to the suspension cords of the yolk and says "eww aren't you going to dig that out? Thats rooster sperm, you might as well be bobbing on the rooster if you put that in your cake!" i havent invited her to my house since.
Then there was this snooty couple that came to look at a horse trailer i was selling. Both claimed to have grown up on a farm. The girl goes "oh my gawwwddd like i didnt know chickens and horses could live on the same farm" and then giggled i said " ummm yea they funny that way"
People kill me with their ignorance of animals
