Yes, and last year it was salt. The year before that it was eggs. Before that, chicken. The list goes on.
If you are to take the latest media hype to the letter of the law, nothing is good for you and everything MAY cause cancer, Alzheimer’s, depression, bone deformity, climate change, bad fashion choices, aging, relationship breakdowns. You name it, someone will blame it on food. Evil stuff. It should be banned.
Then there’s the superfoods that are good for you. Blueberries, nuts and seeds, seafood. These all improve everything from mental health to fertility to job interviews and even make you better at playing darts.
How the human race has lasted so long without being told what good for us to eat, I’ll never know.
If they just allowed animals to graze, in fields, like nature intended instead of pumping them full of antibiotics and growth/flavour enhancers, perhaps the meat wouldn’t be so carcinogenic. But no, there’s little profit to be made in that, no government subsidies.
There’s a big drive on at the moment to guilt trip everyone to become vegan so of course meat is evil and the stuff of nightmares.
Next year it will be BANANAS CAN KILL.
Not having a go at you OP. The media scaremongering just really gets my free range goat.
As my granny used to say; A little of what you fancy does you good and everything in moderation.
Unless it’s crack cocaine or somebody else’s husband, of course..
