Here are some interesting facts that I came across:
(It was in Uncle Johns Bathroom Reader - but hey, I picked it up one day to see why all the boys in my house liked the book so much. I have to say, it had some interesting facts as proven below).
Chicken McNuggets - the main ingredients in Chicken McNuggets is NOT chicken. a McNugget is actually made up of 38 ingredients, mostly chemicals and corn derivatives (56%!!!). One chemical found in a McNugget is (0.02%) is tertiary butylhydroquinone - which is actually a burtaane, also known as lighter fluid.
Cool Whip - Cool whip actually containes NO cream or milk, instead they use a combination of water, corn syrup, coconut oil and palm kerner oil!
Red Bull - An 8.5 oz can actually only has as much caffine as a regular cup of coffee - the "energy" comes from a stimulant known as taurine, which is naturally occurning in the bile of oxen (although you will be happy to know that today it is synthesized in labs).
Twinkies - One of the many chemicals that you can find in a Twinkie is ethylene oxide - another use for ethylene oxide? It was used in grenades durig the Vietnam war!
Magic Shell - You know those chocolate syrups that hardens into a thick cand shell when poured over icecream??? Ever wonder how it hardens? The effect comes from a combination of soybean oil and paraffin wax.
Makes you wonder what is in some of the other processed foods you eat eh???

Just so you know, you haven't succeeded in ruining McNuggets, Cool Whip, or Twinkies for me. Ha! Plugging my ears and singing "la, la, la, la."
ReplyDeleteInstead, put grass clippings to use as mulch for your
ReplyDeletegarden. If you are working on a riding mower or a mower with an electric starter,
you will also want to disconnect the battery as to prevent any
accidental startups while servicing your machine. Cardboard mulch
is very uncommon in Los Angeles, California and other parts
of the country.
Take a look at my website mulching
Be sure that the oil doesnt get direct contact to your own hair scalp.
ReplyDelete3 Coconut oil: To have a beautiful, shiny hair and stimulate hair growth, give yourself a scalp massage with warm coconut oil once a
week. Almost from the time of our grandparents and other ancestors, the
advantages of using olive oil are known to all.
In this manner you can choose the herbs that are right for you.
As a hair growth stimulant, you can add 10 drops of rosemary oil, 10 drops of sandalwood oil and 10 drops of lavender oil to 50ml of carrier oil and massage it
into your scalp.
