Our food supply is programmed?

Food supply quality = big business = harmful chemicals (or pay extra for no chemicals)

yet

Toys from China = big business = harmful for children

The middle man is big business. The end result is the same, harming the consumers.

You know at least we get to eat. In some poor countries...they would love to have our left overs.

So best way to avoid this program is to go Organic Food?

well you'd think that wouldn't you?...but its not the case...the rules for classing foods as organic are very loose...take beef for instance...you only need to feed the cattle and organic food source for 2 weeks before slaughter to be allowed to label it organic...otherwise until then you can feed any trash you want to

the same principle applies organic crops...you only have to grow the seed organically...you can treat the seed with any chemicals you see fit before planting them

so organic isn't as good as it may 1st seem

Yeah, see, we define words and abbreviations in English so, yeah...well, people can understand our meaning, okay...and if you just make up your own meaning, err...then...you know...that makes no sense.

EGADS!!! You mean I have to conform to a single unified and unifrom body? 😱

And this whole time I thought we were supposed to do things the way we wanted. Thanks for clearing that up for me Mr. Marx. 😉

Considering English isn't his first language, I think we can stop pointing out minor spelling errors. Of note, you make errors too, turd.

But acronyms are different...especially on the internet. Also, in this situation, I defined my use and clearly indicated that I use it differently. That means you need to have a nice warm cup of fail. 😄

This has actually been one of the more reasonable and intelligent conspiracies i've heard yet.

I'm stealing it k?

Do you think our food is programmed? If you agree that food has chemical elements that “program” mood, which affects thoughts, would you also wonder if our food can be manipulated and programmed. Meaning, if it’s able to program our mind/mood/emotion, is it also able to be programmed (that’s the logic here).

Besides the chemical aspect of it all, it’s a wonder what we were taught when we were younger. In church, what did they ask us to do before we ate? Pray over our food. Why? To program it, it’s called blessings. So, can food be programmed in various ways?

Think about this. Three focus questions:

1. What kind of program is involved in our foods?

My answer: Easy one, chemicals. Endorphins (what our body creates) & Aphrodisiacs (foods that cause a particular emotion)

a). Foods can affect moods/emotions. Think about chocolate, which releases endorphins. Endorphins have the feel well, pick me up effect, so, it alters mood, in an innocent way, it effects our mind.
b). There are aphrodisiac foods, used to motivate sexual play, again, this sexual play is also related to the chemicals in the brain which signals “sex”.

__________________________________________________________

2. Can foods be manipulated to program your mind?

My answer:
Yes. Besides the extreme leap of logic of programming food by praying a blessing over it, to the more basic example of using foods to create a mood (sexual or feel good).

Here’s a more palatable leap: Food can act as a drug and drugs are literally programmed, if you think of illegal/legal drugs as chemical programs, it’s easier to see the cause/effect logic when wondering about the outcome of certain drugs, and it’s also easier to see the cause/effects of eating certain foods.)

Focus on food vs. mind, not just the overall health of the body.

Food means anything that's editable or digestible (but not poisons).

_________________________________________________________

3. Do you think that genetically programmed/engineered foods are healthy/unhealthy alternatives to non-engineered foods?

Don’t know any foods that are genetically programmed? Think soy or corn (and both are in most of our processed foods, inw, non-whole food=God’s bacteria doesn’t even want it).

Food alters your mood, that is fact. Processed foods posess synthetic chemicals. Are these chemical designed intentionaly to alter people's moods? No, they are designed to enhance taste and preservation. It wouldnt matter what type of chemicals were mixed into the foods. Most anything that you consume has some type of effect over your mind. These effects are still relatively unkown, but the effects they have over your body are generally well known and made public. If there were some type of seret conspiracy abound to alter the masses mood by engineering specific chemicals. The physical effects would not be made public.

Stick to fresh organic foods and stay away from processed foods of any kind if your scared of mood alterations enduced by food.

I like your post.

However, the effects are very well known for the most part...though a lot more information is still out there waiting to be discovered on receptors. (Suxh as upregulation, modulation, modification, etc.)

Actually, I think the OP is approaching it backwards. In fact, we are programmed, both by nature and our formative experiences.

Nature programs us to like and seek out certain tastes - fattiness (for calories, critical for people living in small groups the wild), sweetness (because in nature sugar only comes in things that are good for us, like seasonal fresh ripe fruit), etc.

We also are programmed by our parents' choices of what to feed us, and we adopt this as our default food choice.

Manufacturers and marketers are merely exploiting your previously existing programming.

Many people are able to overcome a highly restricted bad early diet and become more adventuresome eaters, but still, it's a drop in the bucket. Generally, attempting to avoid things like fat is counterproductive, as we really do need fat in our diets, and often consciously eliminating a source of fat just means that intake of other sources - perhaps less healthy ones - will rise unchecked until we have again achieved equilibrium in our diets.
