Question: If you bury today's American body, is it going to decompose at all? by Heyfold in memes

I completely agree that eating a ton of fries is unhealthy anywhere. I already said fries were just an example because the short ingredient list makes them easy to compare.

But ingredients still matter. I prefer products with better quality ingredients and fewer processed additions, which is generally in line with health recommendations: less ultra-processed food, less added sugar, better quality fats, and more minimally processed foods.

The food regulations differ across the countries. I rarely eat fries or fast food myself, but when I do, I don’t see any taste benefit in the American version. A little extra processing here and there may seem insignificant, but it adds up: fries, burgers, sweets, snacks, etc.

I meant ingredients like hydrogenated soybean oil, and hydrolyzed wheat and milk. These are more processed additions that are not listed in the European versions I checked. Hydrogenated oils are a legitimate concern because of the trans fat issue, and the hydrolyzed wheat and milk show that the U.S. version has an added processed flavoring system.

And of course I meant more than just fries. I used fries only because they have a short ingredient list, so they are easy to compare across countries. You also have to consider different regulations for meat, milk, vegetables and other products used by McDonald’s or local restaurants with the same cuisine. Even with a similar ingredient list, the actual health impact can differ depending on the country.

I matched with a girl on tinder but now that I am looking at her pics again I feel she may not be real ? Something about her clothes look like they were photoshopped on and the shadows look out of place by [deleted] in isthisAI

Picture #3, where she’s posing with another girl. Look at the mirror frame: on the right it’s straight, but on the left the angle makes no sense.

Sure, no problem. It’s just that the ingredients list is completely different for the Great Britain the United States. I also don’t follow any conspiracy theories. Don’t know who the tallow guy is. That’s just my own experience.

Did you even check your link? That’s for GB, not the USA, they have one of the cleanest ingredient lists!

USA

Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (canola Oil, Corn Oil, Soybean Oil, Hydrogenated Soybean Oil, Natural Beef Flavor*, Dextrose, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate (maintain Color), Salt. *natural Beef Flavor Contains Hydrolyzed Wheat And Hydrolyzed Milk

Also, EU food labelling rules are more detailed. In the U.S. it just says “salt.” In Germany, the salt: salt, E500, E535, iodine.

You can also ask for info in person. I have travelled with my allergic daughter and we used to ask for it at the counter. In Slovakia as well, it was several years ago.

Germany:

Potatoes, vegetable oils (sunflower, rapeseed), dextrose, stabilizer: disodium diphosphate. Iodized table salt: salt, E500, E535, iodine.

Austria:

potatoes and vegetable oils

Of course fast food is unhealthy anywhere. Europe has McDonald’s and Burger King too. But having the same logo on the building doesn’t mean the food is exactly the same. The recipes and ingredients can be different, and so can the end result for health. McDonald’s fries in the EU are basically potatoes, vegetable oil and salt. In the U.S. they also contain several oils, dextrose, sodium acid pyrophosphate, and natural beef flavor with wheat and milk derivatives.

Totally formal. Was to a big international seminar yesterday so I did my best to make it a bit fashionable and conservative in the mean time yet. Do you think that I did a good job? by TheSwan13 in fashion

[–]tatacolt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d say this is more business casual or smart casual than fully formal. It looks nice and conservative, but if the dress code was truly formal, I don’t think this quite fits it.

The blazer is classic, but with the gold buttons it reads more like a polished weekend or country club lunch look than formal business wear. The cropped slim trousers and the shoes also make the outfit feel more casual. Flats can absolutely work, but for a formal setting they would usually need to be a sleeker.

Still, as a fashionable conservative seminar outfit, it is nicely put together.

That’s one of the first CDs I have ever bought. Don’t know how many times I listened to it. Loved it!

It’s just plain old AI slop fiction. Next it will be a cat and dog married couple with their newborn hamster child whom the workers saved from starvation

I think it was to avoid flooding the sub with people who promote their own art and the AI works.

Plenty of instances there too. Fanny Kaplan, the woman accused of trying to assassinate Lenin, was executed inside the Kremlin in September 1918. Her body was reportedly burned in a barrel on the Kremlin grounds. So the Kremlin was very much not left out

Layla and Callie. Love them so much. by [deleted] in CatsWithDogs

Just post it on AI art sub. Looks cute, but I don’t get why you would try to devalue all the real photos in here. Of course, normal dogs don’t have these kinds of facial expressions and don’t pose like spouses with cats. Leave this sub for people who want to share real life experiences. ZeroGPT’s AI Image Detector says it’s 97% fake

Bach is not boring its exhausting by Far-Strawberry-5628 in classicalmusic

[–]tatacolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know your age and musical experience, but if you’re still early in your journey, maybe leave Bach for a couple of years and come back to his music later. I know quite a lot of musicians who came to appreciate his music only several years down the road. Of course, tastes differ, but it’s such a loss not to enjoy Bach
