@Mr_Atoz@HistorianUSA1@TheEXECUTlONER_ 4 times! 2 times doing stupid shit, 1 time getting tossed from a horse and 1 time in a fistacuff.
Got to the point my dentist told my folks we should just use white erasers glued in until I stopped being an idiot.
I finally quit all that around 20.
This is wild. We have been lied to about everything
We were told chicken is a health food, weโve been told itโs what we should all be eating
According to nutrient density information by multiple sources including the USDA, it ranks nearly dead last. Hereโs the order for nutrient dense meat (generally)
- Beef (especially grass-fed; high in protein, zinc, iron, B vitamins, creatine)
- Lamb (often tops lists for nutrient density per serving; excellent fats, minerals, B vitamins)
- Bison (very lean, high protein, strong mineral profile; frequently #1 or #2 vs. others)
- Venison (lean, nutrient-packed game meat; high vitamins/minerals per calorie)
- Fish (varies: fatty fish like salmon excel in omega-3s; high in protein/selenium)
- Pork (good protein/minerals but often ranks below ruminants; varies by cut)
And all the way at the bottom is chicken:
- Chicken is excellent for lean protein but generally much lower in key micronutrients and fats compared to all the above
We have been lied to about everything
One of the big reason we switched from mainly eating mainly beef and other meats is marketing from major companies like Tyson
Chicken was historically more of a delicacy or seasonal food in the US, not everyday staple like beef or pork. Mid-20th century campaigns by companies like Tyson and others successfully repositioned it as a cheap, healthy, everyday โlean proteinโ alternative
Marketing played a major role in shifting consumer habits, emphasizing health and nutrition angles while industrial production scaled up dramatically. This was classic marketing to expand market share
You should be upset
Sergey Brin doesn't want to see low-income Americans die any more than any of us do, but I imagine he DOES wonder why a sitting Democrat senator who voted for Obamacare is accusing HIM of failing to "save healthcare" for Americans.
It's not his job, Bernie. It's yours. And if low income Americans are dying and suffering because of a broken healthcare system - the very system you and your party installed - the "moral obscenity" is your refusal to take accountability for your own incompetence.
Blaming billionaires for shitty legislation and policy is tired. Nobody's buying it any more.
@verynotserious@janninereid1 I haven't had a tv since 2017. I have no idea where a movie theater even is around me. I taught myself to garden, grow food and can. That's how I spend my time. I'm obliged to Hollywood for showing me that I don't want to be soulless freaks like them.
@Sassafrass_84 You need one of those head lamps. They rock.
I just lost 2 new deep freezers to a power surging gfi malfunction.
And a grand in beef common a cow I bought.
Talk about painful.
