Building the FritoLay of Real Food at @ancientcrunch. Get seed oils out of your pantry ➡️ @masa_chips tortilla chips and @vandy_crisps ➡️ potato chips

Seed oils cause brain damage, make you fat, and turn into cellulite.

Even worse, they stick around in your body for over 7 years, even if you stop eating them today.

But if you want to speed up the process? Read (and bookmark) this secret tip:

@FrancisGMonk Just admit you didn’t do the reading

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

100% agree. Bio hacker opinions on the topic completely left my body after reading this book

The anti-alcohol, anti-pleasure, live-off-grid rhetoric is anti-Western culture actually. We shouldn’t aspire to live like the Amish. We should aspire to enjoy the splendour of our civilisation: beautiful architecture, candlelit dinners, intellectual conversation, cocktails with beautiful friends under chandeliers. We didn’t build all this just to retreat back into huts and eat ground meat off wooden chopping boards

@meat_biz It’s not a cost issue I don’t think it’s the right product to sell

It tastes slightly more “juicy” but also more greasy

And you lose on health + scalability

When the white coats go on you know things are getting serious

[James Murphy @jamestmurphy_]

Bringing legal action is difficult. But sometimes necessary.

Today we sent a letter to Oasis.

I’ve attached it below.

Read on if you want the background.

…

I first heard of Oasis in December 2024 when they published false reports about LMNT.

I publicly and privately explained to the founder why he was reading lab results wrong. 300x wrong, to be specific. He failed to make corrections.

I let it go.

But I kept hearing from founders being unfairly treated. Kept seeing these guys put out made up content that would go viral. Striking fear into thoughtful people concerned for their health.

4 other brands (so far) have sent cease and desist letters with him for falsifying test reporting.

He’s been mocking them online about it.

No rigor.

Not recognizing there is a group of people (scientists and brands) who actually operate and know how this stuff works. Like basic math. Like basic testing protocols.

Just last week, an Oasis post misrepresenting heavy metal levels in protein went viral. It reached 3.5MM people on twitter that day. They got called on it and retracted it with a public apology – the retraction reached 27k people on twitter. That’s a 100x higher reach on false information than the truth.

Blatant errors in reading test results, paired with language like “heavy metals in protein causes neurological impairment and birth defects in kids” strikes terror in people - especially new parents.

Many feel that reform is unlikely. I prefer to be optimistic of people. If Oasis wants to stay in this business, I suggest they:

- Immediately remove themselves from the App Store. Defamatory damages build every day for each misrepresented brand.
- Rebuild the entire framework of their app with a reputable toxicologist and scientist input with a fair framework equitably applied to all brands (no personal bias penalties).
- Correct the misinformation, with equitable reach, on each of the brands damaged.
- Develop communications guidelines for social media. Context over clickbait. Empowerment over fear. Consumer choice over chaos.

Oasis has defamed dozens if not hundreds of brands now and misled millions of people. And I have heard from many other brands and consumers wondering how to help make this stop.

This is not just Oasis. There are other offenders too.

I’ve never been a fan of litigation. I’m really not thrilled about it. But I am committed to it.

If you won’t stand up for your product, who will? And don’t people want to be customers of brands that stand behind what they make? I do.

If damages are ultimately awarded, they will go to charity.

It’s hard to stand up for what’s true online these days.

At some point, when it gets bad enough, some people do.

[RAW EGG NATIONALIST @Babygravy9]

This is also true of avocado oil, maybe to an even greater extent. A study found 82% of all avocado oil on sale in the US is cut with cheap vegetable and seed oils. Cook with animal fat (butter, tallow, good lard) and source your olive oil from trusted supplies like @SeloSlav.

When I bought my jeep wrangler in 2020 I saw that the automatic variant had ~10% WORSE gas mileage than manual

I already wanted manual bc it's fun, but that just sealed the deal

All that gas wasted shifting gears when your left food and right arm can do the job instead

[9mmSMG @9mmsmg]

Controversial, but I have no desire for a manual transmission. I can't outshift my cars automatic transmission. I can pretend I can, but my car is much better at shifting than me.

It makes high speed police chase fantasies way less cool and fun in my head, but my transmission is still better than me.

If i had a car just for the track, it''d be fun. For day to day? It's simply just annoying.

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

@joshkaye I'm open to it

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

Big Food could not have come up with a better app if they tried

Maybe they are involved after all…

[Justin Brady @JustinBrady]

@JoshRainerGold @reallytanman

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

@strong_sistas @sportdrink @oasishealthapp Odd

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

@oasishealthapp how much did Frito-Lay pay you for this?

Pesticide seed oils and gmo corn get 75

Part of me thinks they are making all the health things score poorly so we all tweet about them. Any press is better than no press I guess

[Noah Ryan @NoahRyanCo]

This app rated us 50/100 because we are “untested” when we have a section full of COAs on our site.

This product is garbage at best. Bordering predatory. Nobody benefits from this except the developers. Type of stuff that should get you blacklisted

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

@JustinBrady @SeedOilScout has the data on vital farms

[Austin Lieberman @LiebermanAustin]

Thanks to the @oasishealthapp I’ve switched from poisonous FairLife Protein Milk to Bourbon and I can’t even begin to explain how much healthier I feel.

[Farmer Ash @strong_sistas]

Some people are saying “well who uses this @oasishealthapp app anyways”. A lot of people. 700,000+ current users. Rated #28 in Health apps. So yes, this is impacting brand reputation for many small business including our own with faulty rating and scores. This is disparagement. Have reached out via email and messages asking for more clarification and no response 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

@strong_sistas Mia is due Aug 1 but we’ll see!

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

@dylanbozwell @JayMutzafi @TJ_Bongiorno @oasishealthapp @YukaApp @SeedOilScout This is run by French vegans who say that all animal based ingredients are bad

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

How many plaintiffs are required for a class action?

Any brands affected by their defamation please comment/dm

[Josh Kaye @joshkaye]

Friendly reminder that @oasishealthapp has 395k followers on IG vs 68.9k here. If you have an IG, your followers/customers over there would benefit from knowing what's been going on over here

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

To be clear I would view this as incompetence if the direction of the error was mostly random across entries

But since junk food systematically scores higher than genuine health food, despite the AI’s admission that the junk food contains more harmful ingredients, the malice question must be asked

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

Safe to assume that @oasishealthapp is a psyop paid for by big food

1. Pander to the health community with videos about how everything is toxic
2. Get us to promote it to mainstream
3. Then give Doritos and Oreos good ratings while healthy products get failing scores
4. Big Food profits as they always have

Can’t believe yall fell for this

[Tan Man @reallytanman]

That was my first impression but then I realized the errors are not random. Big food junk stuff systematically scores higher than the good stuff across categories, and despite the AIs own acknowledgement that the health foods actually do have few harmful ingredients and a large number of beneficial ones

Incompetence would show up as random errors

[Farmer Ash @strong_sistas]

Troubleshooting AI bots and algorithms in real time using lab tests found on the internet with an app development team that lacks food production or farming experience (I think) while damaging brand reputation in the process hmmm, is that okay?

When Frito Lays scores higher than the best chips you can find @Masa_Chips and Mobile Pasture Raised Corn & Soy Free, Drug Free eggs from small regenerative farms receive a failing grade we all are starting to question things 🤔
