Food Scares
Frightened that you will die simply by eating? That all foods stocked in your local food emporia will have the nascent ability to choke you unto death and finish you off with a healthy dose of 'stomach' difficulties? Well you should calm you fears and relax with your bowl of coco-pops 'cause things aren't nearly as scary as you think (unless you happen to live near one of those nice nuclear reactors in which case be afraid, be very afraid) For example, BSE, Mad Cow Thingy, and all that. Practically guaranteed to die within two mouthfuls of burger or similar. Wrong! Only 15 cases, hardly an epidemic, more people die of bizarre chain saw accidents that that. And another one. What is more likely to give you a dose of the trots? Is it; a) Un-pasturised Cheese b) Mince c) Lettuce d) Tofu The answer is d) Lettuce. Shocking stuff, and to think that my mother told me that green things are good for you.Latest Messages
