We're all in deep trouble now, according to the OCA. Bacon is nothing more than mind-control, albeit bypassing the conscious mind in favor of the taste-buds. Bacon is a weapon of mass destruction. A tasty weapon, but a weapon nonetheless.
Behind the proliferation of bacon offerings, however, is a confluence of government policy, factory farming, the boom in fast food and manipulation of consumer taste that has turned bacon into a weapon of mass destruction.
More than that, notes Kessler, the food industry uses science and marketing to try to make its products addictive. By manipulating what he calls the "three points of the compass" -- fat, sugar and salt -- the food industry creates highly processed foods that can hook us like drugs. In various countries and regions, the levels of fat, sugar and salt are even calibrated to different "bliss points" to maximize the consumers' pleasure.
They're all out to get you. They hate you, and they want to kill you. In order to accomplish this, they manipulate you with bacon. Of course, if you get sick or if you die, "they" lose customers, but this truism apparently doesn't matter. Clearly, there's a vast conspiracy involving the government, farms, and the fast-food industry. Aren't you glad you found out before it was too late?
We know our food system is killing the planet, killing us with heart disease, diabetes and cancer and threatens to incubate a deadly global pandemic, but how can we resist when it tastes oh so good?
