Are You Sure You Want To Eat That?

May 2, 2007

Want to know some facts on some popular choices for junk food? How many twinkies do Americans eat in a year, over 500 million are consumed in this country! With Chicago eating the most and that is where twinkies came to be! Oh, those chicken nuggets everybody thought was a better choice!!!

There are 38 ingredients in a McDonalds nugget and 56% of the nugget is corn, 16% is meat and the rest is ground up chicken skin and various other ingredients. The can is more expensive to produce than the pop itself in soda pop! When high fructose corn syrup was invented it could be manufactured for pennies, hence the can cost more to produce.

Also, for your gee whiz collection, it takes seventy five 8 oz glasses of water to neutralize one 8 oz cup of pop in your body (liver and kidneys) Not worth drinking that item that is listed as the worst possible junk food!
