Restaurants Making More Tasteless Food

I got a chicken sandwich from Culver's [they are a more local upgraded restaurant, up a few notches from fast food], on the way to go grocery shopping, I was hungry and desperate at 1:00 o clock and there was nothing to eat at home. This chicken sandwich was so absolutely tasteless, I am considering writing a letter to the company, saying "Look, it was like eating a piece of cardboard between two pieces of softer cardboard." I ate about half of it for blood sugar reasons and threw the rest away. Maybe it's my taste buds, but has anyone else noticed food just does not taste the same? Could someone also inform some food executives, that if food loses any taste just from sitting for a few minutes and getting colder, that something is very wrong with that food? If you are noticing that food tastes far worse, leave a comment.

It's like they have bred all the taste out of it. Don't even get me started on main stream fast food or lower cost restaurant food, gross to the max, and in my case, eating it means immediate illness. Trying to find food that tastes good, is tough, when you have bad food allergies and they have glopped everything with a pound of cheese and everything is fried and breaded. For some reason I live in a restaurant wasteland, outside of one good Chinese restaurant, and one higher price deli and two bistro places, unless you got 30 bucks per person to pony up for a meal, food around here is pretty low in quality and sinking lower. It must be the economy as they buy cheaper ingredients to make the stuff with.

Now just wait til they enforce some of those salt and other rules they've been talking about. Is it just me, or is food losing taste? I know McDonald's definitely cut down the quality and taste over the years, the McDonald's of 25 years ago, definitely there was some taste left in the food. When they do things like make all the chicken McNuggets "white bleached" out meat, instead of when there used to be some made from darker chicken meat, then you know they care more about uniformity then taste. I am eating out less and less, it's a spin of the roulette wheel avoiding illness, maybe I am spoiled having learned how food is supposed to taste eating more of the real and organic stuff. They keep telling fat people to lose weight, but good food is becoming less and less accessible and harder to get a hold of. I have a cousin who just became a truck driver, I can see him gaining 100lbs just from bad road food alone.

McDonald's Happy Meal Resists Decomposition

A picture of a McDonalds Happy Meal exposed sitting outside is making the Internet rounds, and definitely shows something very wrong with our food [particularly fast food]. After I found out about the Silly Putty Chicken McNuggets, that was enough to make my stomach hurt.

Vladimir Lenin, King Tut and the McDonald's Happy Meal: What do they all have in common? A shocking resistance to Mother Nature's cycle of decomposition and biodegradability, apparently.

That's the disturbing point brought home by the latest project of New York City-based artist and photographer Sally Davies, who bought a McDonald's Happy Meal back in April and left it out in her kitchen to see how well it would hold up over time.

The results? "The only change that I can see is that it has become hard as a rock," Davies told the U.K. Daily Mail.

I was thinking about this, even if this lady has an apartment with a humidity of 10% [impossible during humid New York City summers even with air conditioning, how come no flies or bugs even came to pick at the burger?

Are They Trying to Make Us Fatter #2?

Check this article out and the new recipes some of these restaurants came up. Its like in all their test kitchens got together to try to break the world's record for the most fattening food ever!

Yes that is lumps of white-colored cheese melted within the cheddar cheese!

Are They Trying To Fatten Us Up On Purpose?

Is there a reason Hardees has to sell a 1400 calorie hamburger, the so called "MonsterThickBurger"? Or that KFC came up with a sandwich the so called "Double Down" that uses fried chicken patties for 'the bread" with cheese and bacon in the middle? Are they competing to make everything as cheese laden and fat filled as possible? People scoff at so called "conspiracy theories" but its hard to ignore the fact at the very least corporate interests seem to be conspiring to make us all as fat as possible. Maybe its a deal with Big Pharma to sell more diabetes pills but some of this really makes me wonder.

Some have said fat and grease sells, but I have felt my own desperation in trying to get something less then plastic while on the road, if food with taste and some nutrients was out there, it would be bought.

Even now I am facing the facts when one has to pay under 20 bucks a meal at restaurant, they are either stuck with Chinese food--sauce and fat on the side, no egg rolls please, or copious amounts of disgusting food that is a nightmare for the lactose intolerant and forget trying gluten free, with a few limp salads thrown in for looks with fried crispy things tossed on top.

When I watched Jaime Oliver's Food Revolution, I wanted to scream at the TV, we are all being fed a load of trash! Only people on farms or big gardens, and those with cash for organic food, [young people seriously consider that as a lifestyle for your own sake] are getting the decent stuff anymore Jaime! Our TVs are full of what basically amounts to food pornography. I enjoy a good cooking show, but is there are a reason in a super sized nation that Emeril used to sing the praises of pork fat, or the host on Man Vs Food, fries a giant pork chop thing with skin and fat attached and yells out: "That's Pork Sexy!" No that is just gross.

Weirder still are the shows dedicated to fit and sassy Rachael Ray eating wondrous meals on a daily basis, though with a cringe some remember the so called Chicago Hot Dog Salad. Other shows display copious amounts of food and complex recipes, that Mary Ordinary would never get to see in her own kitchen outside of a thousand dollar food budget but perhaps on a cruise ship. Then there is the Italian female chef who while cooking foods that consist of every diabetics nightmare who almost disappears when she turns sideways. The mountains of Cool Whip, faux graus, chopped up raw tuna also form a dizzying array of food on the so called cooking channels.

I run my scooter down the supermarket aisles, endless greasy, salted, sugary and expensive foodstuffs look back. Endless bags of fried carbohydrates and bottles of high fructose corn syrup poured into everything. Aluminium silicate, Benzoic acid, calcium chloride and a vast array of the chemical kingdom for everyone! Very few know {read Fast Food Nation} that much of the tastes in processed food, do not come from food itself, but from chemicals whipped up in a lab.


At the grocery store, I follow the nutritionist's advice to "follow the perimeter", grabbing vegetables, meats, and fruits, some tempting "Eat me, I'm tasty" and others forming feelings of disgust, but overall fewer and fewer good things to eat, with more and more empty calories, foods based on white starch, sugar and few nutrients, plastic stomach hurting food, greasy tinned meats, and hamburger red on the outside but always a mushy grey when you take it home to break it down to cook.

Is it just my imagination or has food become just more worse for us, discovering even almond milk had listed as its first ingredient cane juice [basically sugar water] given my lactose intolerance and problems with soy, just made me sigh with food despair.

I can't help but think they want to make us as fat as possible.
