6 Scary Things Hiding In Your Food

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


1. TBHQ, a.k.a Butane

Turns out Butane isn’t just for lighters anymore – it’s also an artificial anti-oxidant that they put it in chicken nuggets to keep them “fresh” tasting. So instead of your chicken nuggets being fresh, Butane keeps them “fresh.” Eating butane probably wasn’t what you had in mind last time you lit up, got the munchies, and ordered those nuggets.

Found in: Frozen, packaged or pre-made processed foods with long shelf lives such as frozen meals, crackers, chips, cereal bars and fast food.

2. Estrogen:

Regular milk is full of hormones used by the milk industry to keep the cows knocked up and lactating all year round. Sound gross? It is. So when you drink regular milk you take a shot of hormones with it. And all you wanted was a bowl of cereal.

Found in: All non-organic dairy.

3. Spinach dust:

Think that green sheen on your veggie snacks is giving you your daily serving of vegetables? Think again. That’s just powdered spinach dust, which is spinach that has been dehydrated and sucked dry of its nutritional value. So the upshot is that green sheen is about as nutritious as actual dust.

Found in: “Healthier” vegetable flavored snack foods.

4. Propylene glycol, a.k.a antifreeze:

Antifreeze is used in cars, pills, cosmetics, deodorant, moisturizer…and food! It keeps your car from freezing over, your moisturizer moist, and your fat free cookie dough ice cream creamy, smooth and juicy. If it’s good enough for your SUV it’s good enough to eat, right? Right?? Right???

Found in: Cake mix, salad dressings, low fat ice creams and dog food.

5. Wood Pulp: Vanillin

Vanillin, which is a byproduct of the pulp industry, is used as an artificial vanilla flavor. Ester of wood rosin, which comes from pine stumps, is in citrus-flavored sodas to keep the citrus flavor evenly distributed through the can. And you thought you stopped eating paper when you gave up dropping acid.

Found in: Artificially flavored yogurt, baked goods, candy and sodas

6. Castoreum:

Castoreum comes out of a BEAVER’S ASS – it’s extracted from their anal glands — and is used to make artificial raspberry flavoring. Try not to think about that next time you order the diet raspberry tea.

Found in: Artificially raspberry flavored products such as cheap ice cream, Jell-O, candy, fruit flavored drinks, teas and yogurts.

      “And you thought you stopped eating paper when you gave up dropping acid.” LMAO (Best pun hands down!)
      “Outta of the beaver’s ass” (simply put it! Awesome!)

      Great funny, informative article!

        I agree, i needed a laugh.

    • Wretched Infidel

      Also in most of the US cornsyrup there is MERCURY. WONDER WHY ? And wonder why they now have been putting corn syrup in everything imaginable that people buy. This is a systematic mercury poisoning for those who may not have wanted any mercury fillings and avoided the mercury poisoning by vaccinations. People should be suing the manufacturers of these foods when mercury is found in them, for this is known, it is deliberated. Plus the FDA for allowing this to be done. That is our own government again, poisoning people en masse to destroy their health and prevent their pursuit of happiness for without health, you can not pursue anything.
