> That's a lot of quote marks around things that don't appear in my posts. The only thing worth addressing is that you keep referring to locust bean gum instead of the xanthan gum I have been referring to the whole time. Below are all of the direct references from the list, where you make baseless claims in an attempt to convince everyone that cream cheese and seed oils and bean gums are unsafe. You zeroed in on trying to use xanthan gum in an attempt to repeatedly advertise your entirely (and self-admittedly) irrational belief that anything discovered less than 2,000 years ago (no matter how naturally occurring) is unsafe, while everyone else was talking about the actual product in question -- cream cheese, for which locust bean gum is almost universally used. > Yep, it's a chemical product for sure, full of xantham gum and other such "ingredients" [...] you can actually taste the gum [...] Lots of nasty things [...] like seed oils [...] the ingredient was invented in a lab less than 100 years ago [...] a food additive that didn't exist until a research team found it 60 years ago [...] current state of nutrition "science" [...] and I'm one of the few remaining people to not be overweight [...] I will just eat what is proven to be safe and wholesome across human history [...] I have literally not made an arguable claim in this thread other than stating what my diet is Please explain to me how you didn't say any of those things -- I copied them directly from your comments -- or how they magically mean something other than what you're plainly saying.
