My guess is wine. But I prefer doughnuts. On long rides, I stop at Circle K and get a few doughnuts , yummy.

Which is the best from a bad list? Forget all of those things, they are all acid / mucus forming and all poison to the body.

Forget calories, think MSG, aspartame, pus, hormones, toxins, etc.



Compared with the filth served by Mc Donalds, the above can be considered health foods!



Seriously, NEVER buy or eat ANYTHING from Mc Donalds. That company is seriously unethical. They care about making money, and I dare say ruining the health of as many people, and other creatures, as possible, above anything else.



That company WILL serve you rat poison to boost their profits, and THEY DO.

Stay well away from milk. That stuff is seriously toxic to humans. Forget the generations of milk marketing board propaganda. It is all lies. Milk is a poor source of calcium, not because of the cholesterol, carcinogenic compounds, saturated fats, dangerous microbes, urine, pus, fecal matter, antibiotics, growth hormones that the calcium comes mixed in but due to other factors that actively BLOCK calcium absorption. Ever wonder why older people often develop osteoporosis and other bone disorders, after a lifetime spent consuming milk?



If you like milkshakes then buy, or make, plant milks. Oat milk, almond milk, hemp milk, etc., these are all superior in terms of nutrition. If you do not like their natural taste, they can be flavoured to have an identical taste to shakes made from the diseased body fluids of animals, which many people wrongly consider healthy.

I would say it is unwise to to declare anything as invalid without proper investigation.

Maybe you're taking things just a little too seriously?

or maybe some caustic soda that would get rid of the pesy PH1 STOMACH ACID which digests my food...... As for dismissing w/out investigatign You seem to have dismissed most foods without a (scientific) investigation.

personally i only eat yin foods in balance with yan foods and stay away froma ny foods which aren't primary colours
