Most of these junk foods contain msg (monosodium glutamate) which is marketed as a flavour enhancer, but is a dangerous addition to anything, that and aspartame - this is one piece of info I have on it=


I wondered if there could be an actual chemical causing the massive obesity epidemic, so did a friend of mine, John Erb. He was a research assistant at the University of Waterloo, and spent years working for the government.
He made an amazing discovery while going through scientific journals for a book he was writing called The Slow Poisoning of America. In hundreds of studies around the world, scientists were creating obese mice and rats to use in diet or diabetes test studies.
No strain of rat or mice is naturally obese, so the scientists have to create them. They make these morbidly obese creatures by injecting them with a chemical when they are first born. The MSG triples the amount of insulin the pancreas creates, causing rats (and humans?) to become obese They even have a title for the race of fat rodents they create: "MSG-Treated Rats".
Please read all labels carefully and avoid msg and aspartame.

On a lighter note.......my Mum bought some a couple of years ago near Christmas, they were on offer, so there was loads in the house. I ate soooo many that I have put myself off them for life. Well nearly, I occassionally have them now if I'm on flight and want a crisp!
HHMMMM PRINGLES ;-p

i'm always amazed at how many things have aspartame in, and msg.....

because they are not good for you
because once you pop you cant stop. Groan...
I once ate an entire tube (I was probably very, very drunk at the time). The next day I woke up with spots!!! I never get spots!!! So I don't eat them now.

I do like Pot Noodles tho. They're spankin' gorgeous! They're no good for you, but they taste great! And so on and so forth...
Cause they put an addictive chemical in it that makes you crave it fortnightly smart ar*se!!- Oh no thats KFC isnt it? rofl
(apologies if you havent seen "So I married an axa murderer")
