"It's fine, I ate that when I was a kid." NO YOU DIDN'T - Gallery
By Michael Baker ยท May 7, 2026
Exposing the truth about ultra-processed foods and how modern food manufacturing has changed dramatically since childhood.
Sad truth: Don't trust any grocery store brand. I see them as poison peddlers. Liars. I noticed this years ago when icing started to taste like oil. When I started to taste the food coloring on candy. When I saw a kids mouth remain stained with a color for 3 hours after a popsicle. All they care about is making things more palatable. Oil, sugar, color, filler, nonsense. You'll hear the term "ultra-processed foods" thrown around a lot now. These companies are using cigarette tactics to keep you hooked. Leave this shit behind and stick to "single ingredient" foods. Foods that do not need a label to tell you what's in it. Whether it's grass-fed, cage-free, organic or not. These foods will ALWAYS be better than the modern chemical bombs being peddled everywhere you go in life. Note for drinkers: The alcohol industry fucks you over even more because they don't show you at all what's inside their products. Nothing. The cheaper the alcohol product the more poisonous it is.
