Just read the article. Ok, Food Babe, and not eating food containing the stuff used in yoga mats. I'm NOT supporting her, or the guys who wrote this article, but I do not want to eat anything used in yoga mats. Their argument concerning this made no sense to me.

I'm one this is happy people are finally stopping calling protein powder clean or natural. I'm sure there are a few, but you are still chemically processing plants or whatever to get the protein- but basically dissolving sugar from plants and crystallizing it is evil- makes no sense. |

I do think Food Babe is a bit tricky, because if you follow her way of eating, it is very healthy. She is (from what I know of her) all about whole, real food, and that's great. So she's not 'dangerous' in that way. However, her rationale for why people 'should' avoid certain things is so unbelievably spurious. A friend of mine is a PhD chemist and she makes his blood boil! Her 'army' has challenged major food chains to eliminate certain ingredients that are (from what my friend said) completely harmless (water, after all, is technically a chemical.) Companies readily capitulate to avoid bad publicity and appear to be friends of the 'healthy eater,' and then she claims a win. It's a great example of the internet run amok. |
