Silly Foodstuff<\/b><\/p>\n
By Dean L. Jones, CPM<\/p>\n
The USA’s food supply has undertaken severe twists and turns over the past century, moving it far away from being a source of nutritional substance. The food supply is odd to say the least as a large variety of packaged food is close to being a collection of anonymous stuff.\u00a0 The country’s dependency on the food industry has given carte blanche to replace human nature by suppressing the instinct to secure food by hunting and\/or harvesting crops.\u00a0 Today we conveniently await the management of a store to price, place, and promote a packaged product on the shelf to satisfy our hunting and harvesting makeup.<\/p>\n
Poorly, the food industry delivers foodstuff items that are frequently hard to determine if it is even fit for human consumption.\u00a0 For example, the General Mills food company presently plans to reintroduce their line of “Monster” cereals under the disguise that it is appropriate for the upcoming Halloween season.\u00a0 These foodstuff items are all targeted at children as an idyllic mealtime entr\u00e9e, including the discontinued Frute Brute (once Fruit Brute), and Fruity Yummy Mummy boxed cereals.<\/p>\n
This product ramp up also \u00a0shows how silly merchants are as they overtly offer for sale ill-intentioned foodstuff to children, with the blessing of parents buying the foodstuff.\u00a0 Like Count Chocula ‘breakfast cereal’s’ suggested one serving size (a cup) has 3 teaspoons of processed sugar.\u00a0 The Frankenberry cereal’s serving size is 33 grams and 10 grams of it is processed sugar, and the one cup serving of Boo Berry cereal is comprised of 3\u00bd teaspoons of processed sugar.\u00a0 Added sugar used as an ingredient in processed foods, such as sodas, energy drinks, and candies are examples of foodstuff with routinely having zilch nutritional value.<\/p>\n
General Mills’ idea of bringing back these sugar-laden products is silly since the executives are fully knowledgeable about the ill health issues caused from eating too much processed sugar.\u00a0 Their rationale is centered around what they perceive as customers wanting to experience nostalgia to eat their favorite childhood cereal.\u00a0 Which is poppycock, since General Mills is undoubtedly just wanting to go back to higher revenues.<\/p>\n
Similarly, the Quaker Oats company operates under the anecdotal social media hype that the customer outcry would be horrendous if they ever discontinued their coveted Cap\u2019n Crunch cereal, which has 3 teaspoons of processed sugar for each \u00be-cup suggested serving size.\u00a0 The media allowed the public to witness a related situation when the Twinkie product was removed from store shelves and there was a rush to buy the last items.\u00a0 This shows how consumers are easily fooled, but in reality we know how to get over obsessions a lot faster than food manufacturers can cope with lost revenues.\u00a0 For instance, consumers had no problem getting over the of demise giant pickles at liquor store counters and nickel scoop ice cr\u00e8me cones.<\/p>\n
