but then you pour salt on it when cooking. I mean who eats saltless bacon? Gross. Why would you even bother. Anyway this stuff really doesn't matter. People have been attacking foods since I was a baby. It's nearly always lies. Literally every single thing that you can eat has been attacked as being fattening, cancer causing, or "bad for you" and 99.999999% of the time there is zero science behind it. For example people to this day claim that aspartame is poisonous even tho it is most definitely not. And now those same people attack Splenda. The fact is none of them know what they're talking about and they're unhappy with their lives so they don't want you enjoying yours. So they attack your foods. This has been going on at least my entire life but probably much longer than that.

  You talk about science behind things like we have 100% knowledge. There is no science in celiacs and sinus headaches, but many celiacs report them. Our knowledge of food is super limited. Our medicine is super limited when it comes to auto immune disorders. My headaches don't exist according to science, but I dealt with them for 23 years and figure out a fix. Keep your mind open a bit, we don't have everything figured out and people's experiences are very real.

    "Our knowledge of food is super limited." You mean your knowledge. The scientific world knows a lot about how food works and what it does to the human body. It could know more, but because our medical research is driven by profit motive instead of "the greater good", food research is low on the totem pole. The interference of corporations such as the subject of this story certainly hasn't helped the situation. For example, General Mills is probably the most guilty single-party with regards to the diabetes and obesity epidemic, but nobody is holding them responsible. We should be. If corporations and their executive leadership were punished for the terrible things they do to our civilization, they would possibly take care to be more responsible in the future.
