If you knew half or what you eat contains, you'd not eat any processed food at all. If it is less than what you can taste, and it's not poison, then your fine. The FDA says so.
If the hair was long enough, you could floss with it when your done eating.
Yes, yes and yes! I know whats in it (intentionally in it that is) because I used to work in Food Science, R&D. I quit that in a hurry. It's one of the most unethical fields out there. And the FDA allows poison too - half our additives are banned in Europe. More like if you don't die immediately from eating it, then the lingering slow aftereffects of the poison can be brushed off as coincidental, and therefore given a pill for the symptoms.
Money to be made by all involved. The consumer is the one harmed, but they don't care; they already have your money and are guaranteed to keep getting it as long as you keep eating their food. Then they use your money to fund marketing to combat any bad vibes people may develop about the food when finding out it's toxic garbage. (Hey arsenic tastes great when excellent flavoring science is employed. So lets not make people feel bad about eating it. That affects our sales. Remind them how the small amount of whole grain fiber and protein in the slop is so good for them and helps them lose weight and is so fast and convenient. Tastes great too. The kids love it.)
No, it's really not the cigarette butt, the hair, or the skin, or the roach or rat turd that we can see that we should be so concerned about... just one more reason to not eat it.
[Sorry about the diatribe. I have massive issues from my insider experience in the food industry. Just trust me. Make it yourself from scratch - source your ingredients carefully. This is the end of my public service announcement for today!]
Where are we going... and why are we in a hand basket?
