Comment on Alternative medicine
kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 2 months agoJust about everything has been turned into a political issue in the last decade. Medicine (not Healthcare… modern medicines/drugs themselves), beer brands, avocados on toast, beef, eggs, children’s films/books (that’s not new, I guess, just hitting new levels recently), gas stoves, holidays, black pilots, etc.
This is my friend’s very most favorite internet article
https://www.phillymag.com/news/2018/08/11/mayonnaise-industry-millennials/
It is about how millennials are ungrateful, unpatriotic mayonnaise haters. It does not appear to a joke article. It fills her with so much joy lol.
Holy shit 🤣
My son Jake, who’s 25, eats mayo. He’s a practical young man who works in computers and adores macaroni salad. He’s a good son. I also have a daughter. She was a women’s and gender studies major in college. Naturally, she loathes mayonnaise.
I think the tragedy is the mom not realizing that the mayo on the shelves today is for the most part only a distant relative of the “oil and egg yolk emulsion” she used to eat as a child.
That is, Millennials are justly rejecting a 100% chemical mix supposed to taste like a natural food, but whose ingredient list looks like a who’s who of food processing science, while it makes her fondly remember something that spoiled quickly if not eaten after opening. You can’t blame the young’uns for not having your memories.

Hellman’s mayo does have a chemical preservative. “Natural flavors” is a bit suspect, too.

Veganaise is full of highly processed and vat-grown ingedients, just like “ben 'n jerry’s” has been trending.
Most restaurant stuff is full of compromises.
I think the 800 pound gorilla is cost vs quality, not nutrition. All those restaurants have shit quality, mcdonald’s-like production lines, and are a suck-ass eating experience.
kewpie japanese mayo
That is one of the absolute best parts lmao
Lmao i really loved this part
They’re also shunning their parents’ preferred restaurants — Applebee’s, Ruby Tuesday, TGI Fridays — to seek out more authentic fare. Old-school eateries, in turn, are diversifying in their search for new customers. Just this year, Red Lobster rolled out a waffles-and-lobster option, and Red Robin launched a vegan burger. You don’t put mayo on a vegan burger.
That was hilarious.
Do other condiments have pale imitators like Miracle Whip and Just Mayo and Vegenaise? I don’t think so!
Author’s never stepped foot into an Asian grocery, and it shows.
There are simply too many quotable lines in this article. Amazing
A movie called “The Mayo Conspiracy” won the Best Comedy Feature at the 2015 World’s Independent Film Festival.
Im going to have to watch this film however
Don’t say that, I don’t want it to be 😭
Yeah those things all just mysteriously “became” political.
We’ll never be able to truly know who made “black pilots” political 🙄

I’m convinced that conservatives wake up in the morning and just choose something to be mad at. Green MnM losing her high heels, gas stoves, Starbucks, avocado toast, etc.

It’s not that far from the truth, it’s just the thing they pick is what they saw on Fox News that morning.
