fsck CSPI and the Food Nazis
Why can’t the tofu-eating, sandal-wearing, gaia-worshipping food Nazis leave us alone with our burgers?
There hasn’t been a Hardee’s near me in probably a decade, so I’ll probably never know the joy of the Monster Thickburger. 2/3 of a pound of beef. Think about that for a moment. Three slices of cheese, four strips of bacon, mayo, and a buttered bun. This is, very probably, burger perfection.
But Michael Jacobson, the leader of CSPI (the improperly named Center for Science in the Public Interest - improper because they are neither involved in science, nor interested in the public, except to control them) calls this burger “food porn”. This is the same man that won’t allow his employees to eat “bad food”.
CSPI is the quintessential Animal Rights Whacko organization, but unlike PeTA, (their official acronym - note that “ethical” is less important than every other part of their name by their own admission), CSPI is using junk science to scare legislators into making bad law about food, and using lawyers to scare companies into making food that nobody wants to eat.
Anyone up for a road trip to Hardees? The closest one to me is in Maryland.
Oh, and if eating healthy means I gotta put up with people like the revolting sots at CSPI - make it a double.
