An airing of grievances, Happy Festivus

Grievance: The Chinese are making and selling plastic rice for human consumption.

YOU (whoever you are)!

*Your slavish devotion to [insert the name of a person, place, or thing] is annoying and wrong-headed.

*You talk too damn much and say next to nuthin'.

*You have the sensibility of a turnip.

*You're not thin-skinned, you're no-skinned (and you're bleedin' all over the carpet).

*When you parade your [insert idea, or the name of an object, emotion, or body part] in the public sphere, you show an utter lack of good sense and character.


Test of Strength, anyone?

They are doing the same thing to shrimp. Pumping them full of cellulose gum called CMC to plump them up and make them weigh more.



Try to know where your food comes from and what it actually is.

Humans who act like turnips are not cool...I got everything against them.

Great advice. Consider the issues with imported seafood outlined in this article.

Nothing like a combination of multi-drug resistant bacteria and the antibiotic of last resort, presented so that you can personally grow bugs resistant to it, in one tasty appetizer.
