Business and Psychology: The Science of Food and Texture!

In a startling (but unsurprising) turn of events... It seems the food service industry will be Eyeing aspects of HOW we eat and the WAY we do it as well.
I was grilling some stir-fry today for a customer and she brought this article to my attention and in turn I'm doing the same!

Why Food Companies Are Fascinated by the Way We Eat

Read on to get hip with the haps....

Call me Butter, cause I'm on a roll (If you've ever came into my work you've heard me say this)

Butter is the Shit..... MARGARINE is Evil, hmph.... I'm not going to lie I've always thought so, and I even ignored the supposed science supporting that claim. BUT NOW, after reading THIS article I know better. Who would've thought that big-business lied and led a smear campaign to promote a product that is anti-health yet extremely affordable to maker and market (and it also has a BIGG shelf life making it a stockable commodity)

FACT: Margarine pretty much is a lab created plastic food-like substance, and it isn't by any means a real food. It’s cheap to make (as stated above), lacks nutrition (mentioned also), and damages your health and/or well-being. But it has a longer shelve life and a higher profit margin than real butter.

BULLSHIT I SAY!

Five Reasons to Eat Real Butter (TAKEN FROM ARTICLE)

• 1. Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) - Raw organic, pastured butter has loads of anti- tumor CLA. It inhibits the growth of cancer cells in the skin, colon, breasts and lungs. It’s anti-fungal and it stimulates muscle growth while preventing weight gain.
• 2. Butyric Acid - Butter contains 4% butyric acid – a short chain fatty acid that research indicates can inhibit tumors. It also signals the immune system into action when an infection is brewing.
• 3. Vitamin K2 - Raw, organic, pastured butter and cream contains vitamin K2 – a necessary co-factor in vitamin D synthesis. K2 also ushers calcium out of your blood stream and into bone cells which increases bone density instead of calcifying arterial and heart tissue. Check out Mike Barrett’s article on vitamin K deficiency symptoms.
• 4. Fat–Soluble Vitamins – Butter is a good source of the fat soluble vitamins A, D, and E. It’s also an excellent vehicle for their assimilation.
• 5. The Wulzen Factor - Raw, unpasteurized butter, cream and milk contain the “Wulzen factor” an anti-stiffness agent. It protects against calcification of the joints (osteoarthritis) as well as cataracts, and the calcification of the pineal gland. Pasteurization destroys the Wulzen Factor.

Water Powered Car: Continued (farjin awesome too)

So I found some more videos about HOW-TO build a HH0 Fuel cell. I def wanna get a beat up ass car and try to do this one day. Maybe I can wait til Nancy's Car Fransisco kicks the bucket. But check out these couple of videos and a 'debunked' Mythbusters video to address the opposition (even though they cheat and don't use real science). Spread the word!!!!!

H-2-Oh my god: Water powered car (where the F$%k did that go?)

Yup, they're real. You might have heard rumors for years about cars like this getting off the ground only to be smashed by big business and here is an article about a few of those ideas. In a previous article I mentioned a guy (Stan Myers) who made a water-car and he got good poisoning and died (Cali to NY would cost 22 gallons.....of water). (video below) Ps....it would be a mini LOL
