I was thinking - which is always quite dangerous - that maybe they lie on the contents panels of cereal boxes. I find it hard to believe that air-puffed rice will ever look like rice crispies, and I've never seen polydioxythernineskdfshasfsdkhdfs ... not exact spelling ... so how do I know that's what is really in my cereal? This caused a massive brainfart for me, which triggered a trip to the store and a basket full of things like bean sprouts, tofu, and a mass of fresh veggies and fruits. At least those are safe...yup...no false coloring or additives there....yup....only...fertilizer. And pesticides. And chemical runoff that clogs irrigation valves of company farm land.
Upon realizing my new problem I have decided I won't read the contents labels of my food anymore. I can't stand to know what I'm consuming, but I'm sure that from all the preservatives we use nowadays I'll live to either 1) be really old and well-kept, 2) die and never rot due to the amount of fermeldahyde inadvertantly injected into my system through Chex and Capt'n Crunch.
Furthermore, I'm of the opinion that I should not be allowed to turn on my computer after less than an hour of sleep with an allergy attack keeping me awake. It spawns random and horrible outbursts that the public should never be allowed to read.
I'm sure when I wake up I'll delete this, so enjoy giggling at me while I attempt to sleep again. ^.^
