Episode 2658 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss news from Eat Happy Kitchen, another attempt at fake fat foolishness, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/06/fake-fat-foolishness-episode-2658 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Fake Fat Foolishness Different social platforms have different levels of engagement for both Vinnie and Anna. (3:00) Vinnie experimented on X regarding the naming of a post. Changing the words in the post name altered the level of engagement, even though nothing else in the post had been changed. (10:00) They chat about personalities in the health space. (13:00) Several have presented information that was taken directly from Nina Teicholz without giving credit to Nina. (15:00) The ketogenic diet has been around for over 100 years. (18:00) There is still plenty of disbelief that fat is healthy. (20:00) They discuss menopausal changes and how they affect a woman's belly. Serena saw changes after changing her exercise routine and trying a CGM. Anna found an article regarding an ingredient similar to Olestra. (30:00) Olestra is a modified fat that was in food products, but was short-lived as it would cause "anal leakage." Salt, Sugar, Fat by Michael Moss is in Vinnie's book club. (34:00) They chat about a recent guest, Vince Sanders, who discussed CBD products with Vinnie.

Oh my! Some clandestine actions and some literature? Sounds intriguing! Matt and Jethro take off on another adventure in another classic episode!

Ever thought about what guarantees God offers?  In today's chapter, we dive into the concept of guarantees. What assurances can we have from God? Hopefully better than failed products like Olestra or New Coke. As we ponder our requests to God, we may wonder if there's anything He always says yes to. In 2 John, John shares three things we can count on: grace, mercy, and peace—gifts from Jesus through our Heavenly Father because of the cross. Grace gives us what we don't deserve, mercy gives us relief from what we do deserve, and peace surpasses understanding. Take a moment to reflect on the grace, mercy, and peace you've received from Jesus.You can purchase the book here: https://pastorrustygeorge.square.site

After 30 years of development, Procter & Gamble rolled out a new, calorie-free oil substitute with the luxurious name, Olestra. This “miracle food” was supposed to revolutionize junk food and allow snackers to eat all the chips and crackers they could cram down their gullets without gaining any weight. Unfortunately for Procter & Gamble, Olestra did not help them meet their bottom line. Did customers have trouble swallowing this new and innovative product? Or did they just not like having "anal leakage"?!Kevin James Thornton (American Queer, This Ends in Paris) joins Misha to share his gut reactions on Olestra's fallout.Follow The Big Flop on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts.

PA SO CRAY CRAY: Where should you keep your money? THROWBACK THURSDAY: Does anyone remember Olestra? TALK ME OUT OF IT: Ex's Wedding

While Sliced Bread takes a break we serve up… Toast. A study of the spectacular failures of wonder products and businesses which had promised so much to consumers. In each episode the presenter and BBC business journalist, Sean Farrington, examines one big idea. What did it promise? Why did people back it? Why did they get burnt? Some of the world's most successful businesses have also brought us some of the world's most remarkable failures. So, what led them to be toast? And what can we learn from their stories today? Sean unpicks all the early optimism, hype and ambition. He speaks to expert commentators and to people involved with doomed wonder products to discover how they view things now and what, if anything, could have been done differently. Along the way he discovers charming and surprising stories from people who took to these products but lived to regret it and, with the help of self-made millionaire and serial entrepreneur Sam White, tries to work out where they went wrong. This week, Sean and Sam look into a fat substitute called Olestra which promised to make savoury snacks healthier. With none of the fat and far fewer calories, Olestra sounded like a dieter's dream..... but it didn't turn out that way. Toast is a spin-off from Sliced Bread, the series in which Greg Foot investigates the latest so-called wonder products to find out whether they really are the best thing since sliced bread. Sliced Bread returns for a new batch of investigations in May. In the meantime, Toast is available only in the Sliced Bread feed on BBC Sounds. Toast is a BBC Audio North production for BBC Radio 4.

Today, we dive deep into the world of fast food ingredients and their impact on health. Our guest for today is Mel Weinstein, a former food chemist who has spent decades studying industrial foods and additives. Mel and Rip discuss a variety of eye-opening topics related to fast food ingredients, how they end up in our food system, and the impacts they have on our health.  You'll learn about: Mel's personal journey to food chemistry, vegetarianism, and eventually veganism All cornfields are not the same! How field corn, or dent corn, differs from the sweet corn we buy at grocery stores. How this dent corn is grown and processed to create various products and components like starch, oil, protein, and fiber. The government's role in regulating the food industry and how this later influenced the creation of dietary guidelines. What the food manufacturing companies did to resist these recommendations and drastically alter the food industry (and our health).  The rise of fat-free products loaded with sugar and the unintended consequences of Olestra, an indigestible fat-like substance, as a response to the government's push to reduce fat in foods. Why it's difficult for consumers to know what they are eating when dining out in restaurants. The ridiculous amount of ingredients found in common meals at places like Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried Chicken, and Pizza Hut.  Mel's Processed Food Index (PFI) and what makes something lightly processed vs. extremely processed, or industrialized. What are some of these “Ingredients” commonly found in food products, such as azodicarbonamide, natural flavors, hydrogenated soybean oil, methylcellulose, pea protein isolates, and soy protein isolates, and do they get the “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” from Mel? What about carrageenan, alternatives like xanthan gum and enzymes, wheat gluten, and the industrialization of citric acid? Should we "fear our food?!"   We know fast food is, for the most part, crap, but what we didn't realize is just how bad some of it really is. Not surprisingly, the food industry doesn't want us to know what's really in that fried chicken or juicy burger, but thanks to Mel we're inspired and educated to drive right on past that drive-thru.   Episode Resources Episode Webpage Watch the Full Episode on YouTube Order Fast Food Ingredients Revealed Food Labels Revealed Podcast To stock up on the best-tasting, most convenient, 100% PLANTSTRONG foods, including our all-new pancake and waffle mixes, check out all of our PLANTSTRONG products HERE.

In the final episode of this mini-series,  we talk about the impact of pesticides, herbicides, and artificial sweeteners and fats on our health. We explore how these substances have inadvertently wreaked havoc on our bodies.We delve into the ecosystem within our bodies, teeming with trillions of bacteria, mitochondria, and other organisms. Pesticides and herbicides, originally designed to eliminate pesky things like insects and weeds, have unintentionally harmed us by destroying this vital inner ecosystem we depend on. They are damaging our nervous system, hormones, and more.We also touch on the topic of water fluoridation and how it might be disrupting our microbiome, thereby throwing off various processes within our body. Once considered beneficial, fluoride in our water systems (and toothpastes) has now been linked to adverse effects. We talk a little about that and also how water systems vary across the globe.Next, we run through the world of artificial additives, focusing on artificial sweeteners and fats. These additives disrupt our body's natural processes, leading to overeating and weight gain. The divorce between appearances, like taste, and reality has confused and broken our bodies.We discuss strategies to reclaim vibrant health and free ourselves from our current troubles. Armed with empowering knowledge, and realigning ourselves with the way we evolved to be, we can navigate the modern world while safeguarding our health and vitality.RESOURCES - The End of Craving by Mark Schatzker (book) - Environmental Working Group (organization)      - Dirty Dozen     - Clean Fifteen - Silent Spring by Rachel Carson VOCABULARY, CONCEPTS, & THINGS - artificial fats: Olestra, Simplesse - artificial sugars: Ace K, aspartame,  saccharin, stevia, sucralose, xylitol - enzymes: acetylcholinesterase, EPSP synthase - herbicides:glyphosate (Roundup) - insect anatomy: ventral nerve cord - minerals: fluoride - nerve receptors: nicotinic acetylcholine receptors - neurotransmitters: acetylcholine  - pesticides: carbamates, DDT, organophosphates

In 1996, Proctor & Gamble launched an artificial fat substitute called Olestra that promised we could eat all of our favorite junk with none of the calories. There was just one problem: it caused anal leakage. Also, the reviews for sugar free gummy bears are incredible, a listener story of an unfortunate side effect from a sugar substitute, and it turns out the Nestle company isn't very nice.

If at first you don't succeed...maybe you produced a product like Olestra. Or limeade-flavored Oreos. Or Colgate's beef lasagna. These items are all on display at the traveling Museum of Failure, which is now at Industry City in Brooklyn. Founder Samuel West joins us to discuss what we can learn from failure -- and why it's necessary to innovate.

Apologies in advance – this one's nasty! Lauren one ups Megan's famous "Stuff up Butts" topic with stuff in your organs that shouldn't be there. It's gross and weird! Megan, meanwhile, makes us listen to the truly upsetting consequences of eating a whole thing of Olestra Pringles. The takeaway? Just accept who you are and eat the whole thing of Regular Pringles! Let us know if you make it through the whole episode, and send us topics that don't make us barf, at thefreakshowpod@gmail.com. 

In the last few months, the topic of artificial intelligence, better known as AI, has been at the top of people's minds. This is because of the new usage model brought about because of generative AI, or AI that can write as if it's a person. But, AI has a lot of potential uses, including improving online search results, creating almost real looking images, and automatic replies in email. However, HITS AI is looking to use artificial intelligence to improve medication research.What is HITS AI?HITS AI is a medication research group that uses artificial intelligence to help work out compounds. While this might sound like science fiction, it is already in action today. The general idea is that researchers know how certain compounds and chemicals interact with the human body.Using this existing information, an AI model has been trained to be able to create new combinations of these compounds and predict with a high degree of certainty how the body will react. Using this information, researchers can then apply the results to known diseases and conditions to see if they will be affected, positively or negatively, by the newly created compound.Depending on the level of confidence, researchers can eliminate certain compounds from consideration for treating particular issues. The elimination could be because the treatment is not effective, is more harmful than helpful, or something else. This process of using AI to eliminate potential treatments for known and potential issues can help researchers and medical companies skip the long and costly drug research process. It can even prevent possible harm to people by identifying harmful side effects before they appear in patients.Benefits of using HITS AIIn the US, we know that the FDA has long been a challenged organization. The administration is over burdened, under staffed, making it difficult to do the job effectively. Several high profile failures have happened, with drugs that had been safe in initial testing causing immense harm or embarrassment. Take, for example, Olestra, which was originally approved by the FDA as a fat-free cooking oil, but turned out to have some pretty bizarre side effects for some users.As it turns out, it was unlikely that clinical trials would have revealed the side effects of this one. However, if HITS AI had been available when Olestra was originally being developed, the effect on the body could have been uncovered through computer models rather than waiting until it hit the market. This would have prevented embarrassment for the company that produced it, the FDA that approved it, and for users who had to wear dark pants. It also would have saved a lot of money in research and development, FDA testing, and product development.SummaryThe HITS AI chemical compound computer models have already been used by researchers in their investigations.

Olean is the brand name of the fat substitute Olestra. The product would add no fat or extra calories to food products, without losing any of the taste! The miracle oil took off in the mid 90s, during a wave of other “low fat” and “fat free” products. Most notable was the Wow! chips brand … Continue reading "Episode 76: Olean/Olestra"

Welcome to all of our new listeners! On today's very special episode, the incredible Kate Spencer, from the award-winning podcast Forever35, is our guest.

We are so lucky to have comedian, actor and singer Cole Escola drop by the podcast this week. You may know Cole from their scene-stealing roles in "Search Party," "At Home With Amy Sedaris" and "Difficult People," but before all that they were learning about sophisticated, cosmopolitan female leads on nineties shows like "Fired Up" and "Mad About You." We also get into how the calcium industry hijacked TV commercials in the nineties to the point where Cole ate so many Kraft single slices it made them puke, explore what will now be dubbed "The Snackwell aesthetic" and hear about the time Vanessa misunderstood what seems like a pretty straightforward reference from "Troop Beverly Hills" so deeply that it's still difficult to comprehend. The CEOs get a short-lived break this week as we bring back our "Back To The Present" segment where Jonah makes a compelling case for CD long boxes, Vanessa makes a plea to bring back WOW! chips (despite Olestra's uncomfortable side effects) and Cole would like to bring back Sunday night family movie programming, the latter of which should not cause intestinal bloating.

We've been fed a lot of wack nutrition advice over the years⁣. When I saw the new Tufts Food Compass scoring system claiming that Lucky Charms is healthier than eggs I nearly pooped my pants - like the time I ate too many Fat Free Lay's chips (remember Olestra? Remember in the 90s when they told us that fat was bad but poop-your-pants fake fat was good?!)⁣ Today on the podcast I am giving you my thoughts on the “new tool” developed by Tufts to help consumers, food companies, restaurants, and cafeterias choose and produce healthier(?) foods and officials to make public nutrition policy. TL;DL (too long; didn't listen) These scores aren't perfect and they continue to vilify certain nutrients & foods (like fats & meats), which can have negative health consequences. In this episode: -The new “food compass” and why we need to talk about this [1:04] -What is the new Food Compass, who it's for, and potential uses for it [8:41] -How these food scores are created [11:42] -Looking at sugar and fiber levels within the scoring system [14:34] -Foods that score high vs low on the scoring system and why this is a problem [19:13] -The perplexing scoring behind Lucky Charms [25:27] -Why is meat being vilified in this scoring system? [28:57] -Spotlighting the connection between mental health and meat consumption [31:58] -The nutrition benefits found in meat versus veggies [38:44] -Health benefits of cholesterol, including brain and hormone health [41:28] -Problems linked with low hormone levels [43:09] -The health importance of minerals [44:19] Resources mentioned: FOR OUR FULL LIST OF LINKS + RESOURCES, HEAD TO: https://www.erinholthealth.com/funktional-nutrition-podcast/2021/10/25/episode-178-my-thoughts-on-the-new-nutrition-scoring-system

Because he's been around for a while, GamerDude has seen a lot of changes in the world, and a lot of inventions, products, and things that have come and gone. This week, he talks about some of the supposedly wonderful products and inventions in his life that turned out to be anything but. He talks about how the plastic bag industry created the supposed need and demand for their product that resulted in the virtual disappearance of the paper bag industry. He talks about how there were no plastic bags when he was a kid, and how the old-fashioned brown paper bag was everywhere, and had many uses. He talks about how plastic bags took over that industry, and why that's not such a good thing.  He also talks about how polystyrene coolers and containers also came into widespread use, and why that was not a good thing either. GamerDude also taks about asbestos, and how he remembers it being a "miracle mineral," with uses in everything from floor tiles to automotive brake pads. He talks about how asbestos was used in so many every day things until it was discovered how deadly the inhalation of asbestos fibres actually was. He also talks about food addittives, like Red Dye #2 and Olestra, and how it turns out that things that were supposed to make our lives better actually did just the opposite. GamerDude also talks about how one of the more recent inventions - flushable wipes - was supposed to be a beneficial addition to our lives but how, in reality, they are creating more problems than they may be worth. And, he talks about how self-service checkout lines are not really a boon to society.

The Mullet is back!  We aren't even mad about it either. Olestra is not back for obvious reasons that you may or may not know about, but you will. We also bring back a DELI winner to see how it will fair with a 3rd score to add to the mix. 

Russell and Clinton go Totally Oral with the man himself: Jason “JLips” Lipscomb.  JLips discusses just how much disruption Dental Disrupt Nation is causing, how his offices are adjusting with the latest market trends, and what approach a practitioner should take when journeying into CE.  Russell spends most of the time lamenting the fact that he invested his life savings into Olestra rather than Bitcoin. 

Ahoy, beach babes! This week we plead with you to drag up a life raft and listen in as we crunch into PART 1 of our CHIPS series. Not so fast Eric Estrada, not those kind of chips.

Today we discuss everyone's favorite slippery orange discharge- no not the 45th president- OLESTRA! Remember WOW! Chips?? Well, you know who does?

Could wearing masks do more harm than good? Is it possible they could negatively impact physical health, mental wellbeing, or even our society's civility? I realize that opening this blog post with those questions will cause some people to question me. Who am I to question public health experts and politicians?  We're not supposed to question the “experts,” are we? They know what they're doing, right? After all, they: Came up with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, which promote a diet known to exacerbate diabetes and obesityDecided vaccine makers cannot be held liable for damages caused by vaccinesApproved Phen-Fen to combat the obesity epidemic which caused heart valve problems and other major health issuesApproved the use of Olestra in foods which caused micronutrient depletion and anal leakageRemain silent about the impact food and supplements could have on reducing the risk of the coronavirus The list goes on, but I think you get the point. I'm sure by questioning whether we should "mask up" or not, some people will say I'm selfish. "You're supposed to wear a mask to protect others." "You don't do it for yourself." "To not wear a mask is an act of selfishness." Or to quote Biden recently, "It's not about your rights. It's about your responsibility." Those are some of the lines we've been conditioned to believe in the past few months. Before virtue signaling the unmasked, consider this: Many people who choose not to wear a face covering are the most selfless, caring, health-promoting people I know. I'm also among the unmasked. I don't avoid wearing one out of defiance or disregard for others. I'm not convinced the long-term risks of wearing masks outweigh the minor benefit they might provide. In my opinion, the following issues need to be discussed and vetted by unbiased healthcare practitioners and psychologists and require close observation in those who choose to mask up. Without confidence about these issues, I choose not to wear a mask, and wouldn't encourage friends or family members to wear one either. Could mask-wearing increase social disconnection? For more than six months, "experts" have told us to stay at least six feet apart. No hugs, handshakes, or other physical touch. Physical touch helps us bond with others. It helps us feel good, too. Now, we're not only supposed to be six feet apart, but we're also supposed to cover our faces. In fact, one of the Wisconsin state agencies expects employees to wear masks even when alone, on Zoom calls. Facial gestures play an essential role in human communication. We use 43 muscles to create 21 distinct facial gestures. Those gestures often tell more of the truth in communication than people's words do. Thanks to our mirror neurons, when we see others' facial gestures, we mirror their gestures to help us feel what they feel. That's the foundation for empathy. The MNS (Mirror Neuron System) is considered to be related not only with motor imitation and reading intention of other agents, but also with concepts in social interaction, such as emotion, empathy, and ToM (Theory of Mind). Hence, it is speculated that the cause of psychiatric disorders such as ASD may be strongly associated with dysfunctions of the MNS.Hyeonjin Jeon and Seung-Hwan Lee. To believe that covering people's faces won't affect our interactions with others is ridiculous. If others can't see our facial gestures, and we can't see theirs, we miss out on a large part of the emotional aspect of our interaction. On top of that, we shouldn't hug, shake hands or rub shoulders? During a time of significant social tension across the country, we need clear and compassionate communication. Covering our faces compromises communication and reduces empathy. Couldn't it lead to even more social stress than we already see today? Couldn't masks reinforce danger and deceit? You wear a mask to protect yourself from danger,

1987 is the year and Mannequin is the film this week! In our longest episode ever, Erika and Paul are completely confounded and delighted by this movie, starring Andrew McCarthy, Kim Cattrall and Meshach Taylor. Also, since it comes up, they discuss how high a window they would jump out of for each other. Just normal, expected conversation when one talks about Mannequin. -Erika recommends Pretty In Pink as a palate cleanser, also starring both Andrew McCarthy and James Spader. -Paul points out that Kim Cattrall and Carole Davis both were in an early episode of Sex & the City.

Why is fake fat making the headlines again? In this special JIMMY RANTS on The LLVLC Show Episode 1654, Jimmy talks about this troubling, but not surprising, new trend. “Babies have been breastfed forever, what makes us think in 2020 we have found the answer to a problem nobody knew existed before now?” - Jimmy Moore For those of us of a certain age, we remember back in the low-fat era a very interesting new product that was introduced primarily through potato chips. It was called Olestra and it promised to give us all the flavor of fat in a potato chip without all the calories and fat grams that were causing us to be fat and sick. It was promised to be a healthier option and so many Americans tried it. ⁣ ⁣ It didn’t take long for the stories to leak out (all pun intended) of explosive diarrhea and anal leakage after consuming this man-made fat. Not surprisingly, Olestra was taken off the market and we thought this would discourage any future fake fats from coming on the scene. If only we were that lucky. ⁣ We are all now realizing and experiencing the negative implications of destroying real food in our food supply. It’s why people are buying meat from local farmers and farmers markets. It’s why people have backyard chickens. And it’s why people seek out purchasing raw dairy legally (and it’s becoming increasingly more difficult to do that). ⁣ ⁣ In a couple of episodes of JIMMY RANTS, Jimmy shares about a couple of new startup biotech companies called BIOMILQ and new fake-fat company Epogee, companies backed by billionaires like Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Richard Branson, and Jeff Bezos who want to commercially manufacture fake breastmilk in a lab from human mammary glands to replace formula which they claim is harming the environment and global warming. They want to use the same technology to create “milk“ products that are a lot “healthier” than what is available today. The world is going mad and this is more evidence of it. ⁣

Happy Father's Day! In this episode, we celebrate the grossness of being a dad ("Captain Sweaty"), the economics of child labor, and some generally bad tips on parenting. To top it all off, we revel in the poetic glory one of Christian's perennial favorites, Haribo Sugarless Gummy Bears.

Humanity has always been on the hunt for a guilt-free way to eat complete and total garbage. In the late 90s, Olestra was unleashed upon the world, claiming fat-free, guilt-free potato chips, with one minor caveat: "loose stools." In this episode, Jim and Drew dig into the creation of Olestra back in the 1960s for a completely different purpose, and how it made its way onto grocery store shelves, before becoming notorious and causing multimillion dollar lawsuits.

Well, we are here with a new episode in very weird times. We here at the Brewtiful Game hope you are able to shelter safely in place and stay healthy. And for those of you who can't because you are on the frontline of essential jobs, we very much thank you. We hope we can provide some distraction to your shelter in place days. So, what to talk about in these trying times? On the soccer front, we look at how different leagues are approaching their shutdowns during the pandemic. Plus, we vent our frustrations at U.S. Soccer after their president has just stepped down over the wretched handling of the equal pay case with the U.S. Women's National Team. We think we might have a solution to their problems in our humble opinion. (Spoiler alert: EQUAL PAY!!!) Beyond these soccer and beer topics, we all have clearly been cooped up inside, as this episode gets a little weird. We go from incest Folgers' commercials to Olestra chips that cause anal leakage. In other words, we had a great time letting off steam. We hope you can hang out with us and do the same through our show.

If you're of a certain age, you may remember the diet craze of the 1990s. SlimFast and Lean Cuisine were king, Diet Coke was at its Supermodel peak, and "fat free" was the way to be. In this episode, Erin and Nicole uncover the miracle of diet miracles: Olestra. Sure, it made your butt leaky, but FAT FREE DORITOS.

Long time friend and Keto diet aficionado, Raymil Perez, joins Muñoz to talk all things about the diet that’s on everyone’s lips! From his humble upbringing to coming out and even exploring many a diet plan, including a moment with Olestra, they cover all the […] The post IN YO MOUTH (https://www.in-yo-mouth.com) .

Human creativity is an unbelievable force. But for every great invention and idea that's designed with clear purpose, there's several shots in the dark that seemingly come out of nowhere. Connecting unrelated dots. Meeting unnecessary needs. Leading our species in questionable directions. What's even more amazing is that many of these quests and creations have become amongst the most adopted elements of the modern age. In this podcast, we explore these terrible ideas and present some thoughts on what potentially sparked them, and examine what we think made them work. In this episode…. (1) Olestra (2) Bowling (3) Fire Extinguishers Plus our regular feature “The worst of the week” - A twist on current events.

Why we should all be cutting wood all the time and how people who "get" Rick don't get Rick.

During the Fat-Free craze of the 1990s/2000s, a product came out that took the country’s kitchens and bathrooms by storm! Learn the history of the WOW! chips cooked in a magical oil named Olestra. HOSTS Peter Dunn and Scott Long provide your as much truth as you can handle. scottcomedy.com

Jennifer Morey Caldwell was a cautious person. So when she picked out her apartment complex, she chose the Bayou Park Apartments. She was a young lawyer living alone in Houston, Texas, so she was drawn to the complex’s 24-hour security. The apartment complex was protected by Pinkerton Security. She’d heard of them. Surely they’d keep her safe.  Then, Kristin wraps things up with the explosive story of Olestra. Those of us who lived through the 90’s remember Frito-Lay’s Wow brand of chips. They were made using the chemical Olestra, which worked as a fat substitute. It was amazing! The chips tasted great! They had hardly any fat! There was just one tiny problem. They caused anal leakage. And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases. In this episode, Kristin pulled from: “Nutrition group seeks warning labels for olestra,” by Bruce Mohl for The Boston Globe “Frito-Lay agrees to label fake fat Olestra more clearly on its “Light” chips,” article by the Center for Science in the Public Interest Notice of intent to sue from the Center for Science in the Public Interest to Frito-Lay (https://cspinet.org/sites/default/files/attachment/olestra_demand.pdf) “Frito-Lay target of Olestra lawsuit,” article by the Center for Science in the Public Interest “Olestra: A Leaky History,” portablepress.com “FDA says Proctor & Gamble free to use fake fat,” medicinenet.com “Frito-Lay’s Wow chips hit Hoosiers hard,” press release by the Center for Science in the Public Interest In this episode, Brandi pulled from: “False Sense of Security” by Steve McVicker, Houston Press “Jennifer/Sampson/Norina” episode I Survived  

The Gang tries to understand exactly why anyone on Earth would want to set up, let alone go, to Woodstock 50. Joe tells us about what he felt during skydiving, and Sam stands up for Metallica (sort of). Greg tries to talk serious science, but Adam only wants to know about space poop, and we finally get to hear that Ray Davies story that was too hot for our WCUR reunion show.

This week we have another special guest co-host Becky, while Jeff is recovering from overdosing on Olestra. This week Becky and I discuss a cougar who attacked a child, and then asked to see a manager about her expired coupon.  A new study says your kid may not be an asshole if you read to them, instead they'll just be a smart ass.  A dad stole his kid's girl scout cookie money so he could get a rub and tug, I guess she didn't get her financial security badge.  A baby put shit in its mouth and ended up at the doctor... well not literal shit.  And an Uber driver gets five stars after helping his passenger give birth in the back seat, but I hope he scotch guarded the upholstery. Don't worry, this episode is outside of the splash zone.  Welcome back to The Hour!  

This week we are bringing out the maps and pins to learning about the Indiana Women's History Trail thanks to Katie's 1 cool women's history thing.

I knew Rachel before I even graduated and she didn’t know me. She might have actually been the first person I’ve ever seen who was a consultant. I think it’s because she took advantage of the online space and I stumbled onto one of her articles, or e-books, or something. Anyways, if you’re in NorCal, and you don’t know Rachel Zemser, you might actually be living under a rock. Her presence online and offline makes it seem like she’s everywhere. And she needs to be as it’s necessary navigating the Bay trying to solve silicon valley’s greatest challenge: consumer packaged food. In the bonus episode, you might have caught a bit on how Rachel networks, but this episode talks much more on being an expert formulator, even if you aren’t already in R+D. Not only that, but she gives some life advice to young professionals who might not want to leave home, gives some amazing insight on new food ingredients, and rants and raves about her favorite restaurants in the world. Key Takeaways On mentorship and being a pro developer Why young professionals should move How to be a regulatory consultant Question Summary How did you find out about food science?: I picked it out randomly How do you become an expert formulator?: If they only make one product, they will get to know all the procedures fast. Books  can help, but you have to live it. You have to learn through mentors. However, if you were in a big company, you can go and be friends with the R+D department. Keep on learning from all avenues How to get Mentors and Mentees: Symbiotic relationship Quick Tips: If an intern is really really new, in general, it’s a negative Return on Investment How long do you think someone should be in a company before leveling off their skill set?: 5 to 6 years Depends on what position you are. There is not a lot of turnover in food companies. They won’t get rid of you. New Jersey and Chicago: a lot of competition. Arizona not so much. Young Professional Advice: if you’re 22 to 32 years old and have no kids, you should go out and explore the world. Don’t be afraid to leave the coop. Tips on Starting your Career: I meet so many graduates from Davis who will never ever leave the Bay Area. Rachel suggests that they should leave and explore. Quick Tip: Keep on going for food science and you can be a consultant for life Food Trends and Technologies: Protein Powders, Fat Powders, Botanicals and Antioxidants TIC Gums, Colony Gums have teams to support you. Ingredient companies have a huge technical support network to help you out What is one thing in the food industry you’d need to be more about?: More education for fats and oils Coconut Oil was bad in the 70s. Palm Oil is bad now due to sustainable concerns U Mass Amherst: Gum and Hydrocolloid class What's the hardest part about being a consultant?: Hard part about being a consultant is that you know a lot of things, but not everything Favorite Kitchen tool: Chocolate Melange: Can make her own peanut butter and chocolate Favorite Quote: Are you a nutritionist? Nutritionists care what you put in your body Do you have any advice for anyone in the food industry?: You have to love it. Where can we find you?: Burlingame, IFT, RCA, World of Flavor Shows, Expo West, Fancy Food Show Website: Alacartconenctions.com @culinologist, facebook page for the ebook, google her Other Links Chenowith Labs Fancy Food Show IFT17 Food Science: The university’s best kept secret Food Blogger Conference in San Francisco Alton Brown inspired Millenials to be food scientists Gen X: chefs and military find out about food science Research Chef Association Free IFT Powerpoint for Food Science Food Science versus Nutrition Regulatory Consultants Love on the ingredient statement Potato Protein Impossible Foods uses potato protein Olestra in fat trends Gelatin, Collagen Supply Side Gums Hydrocolloids World of Flavors El Bulli – but I got food poisoning in Madrid NOMA The Fat Duck Farm to Table MOTO Tablet compressor bench top tablet press Ray Krock McDonalds story

Angie says @ 00:33:41 She gets cold sores and is wondering if taking a broad spectrum amino acid supplement with L-arginine would inhibit the effectiveness of the L-lysine… or, moreover, what would use suggest for supplementation to reduce cold sores. Daniela says @ 00:39:40 Is wondering if human weight loses strategies would work for animals? Specifically her dog. Also, she can't make it to the Superhuman Event in March and is wondering if there are any other events that you would suggest or recommend to your listeners. ~ For dog food I recommend Primal Pet Foods. My twitter feed tells what I'm attending and also check out: Pacific Elite Fitness calendar, PaleoFX, Ancestral Health Symposium, Bulletproof Biohacking Conference. Eliot says @ 00:55:01 He was reading about using sodium bicarbonate. He understands it can cause some major GI issues. but what about using it with the magnesium oil as a trans-dermal supplement (dissolving some baking soda and rubbing on)? Would that work? Is it legal? Would it have any effect on longer distances (the studies I have seen are shorter/middle distance stuff)? (He understands the energy system for longer distance racing is different - there may be less lactic acid build up, but assumes that in a 3hr marathon there would be some benefit) ~ In my response I talk about Transdermal magnesium oil, Transdermal bath flakes and Oxaloacetate. Jack says @ 01:05:21 He is a 15 year old soccer player and he has a "calf burn" in his anterior and posterior calf muscles. It only happens during games - not practice or conditioning. When it flairs up, it hurts/burns like fire every time he steps. The pain is a 6 out of 9 (worse in the morning). He occasionally wears knee bands but not consistently. Soccer season is almost here and he is worried about his calves. ~ In my response to Jack, I recommend the rumble roller and also the muscletrac. Jenna says @ 01:11:14 She is gearing up for Ironman and is wondering if she could use Maple Syrup for training and racing. It tastes so good… she is Canadian. ~ In my response I mention the Superhuman Coach Pros and Cons of Organic Maple Syrup. Paula says @ 01:17:47 She is looking for more information regarding Phenocane especially in relation to its effect on the SI Joint. ~ In my response, I refer to Phenocane. Also my book at www.runwithnopain.com and how to self adjust SI joint.

Apsartame, better known as Nutrasweet, or AminoSweet, and its new cousin, Neotame, a much larger, much sweeter, and potentially even more toxic update of the Aspartame molecule, are all over the place. Virtually everything you put in your mouth labeled ‘sugarless’ or ‘diet’ contains these pernicious, toxic substances.Nutrasweet’s original manufacturer was Searle corp. They tried to get Nutrasweet declared safe for consumption, but the body of evidence against it was too strong. In the lab, it caused the following forms of cancer tumors in cellular cultures: brain, pancreatic, breast and uterine. In more recent tests, leukemia, lymphoma and kidney cancers were discovered.If one examines the structure of the Aspartame molecule itself, it’s easy to see why it could be so deadly. The molecule mates what is essentially a precursor to wood alcohol, the type of alcohol that causes blindness and seizures, to two amino acids, so that your body readily recognizes it as a nutrient. During digestion, this deadly methanol and also formaldehyde form from these precursor chemicals.I happen to know a researcher who worked in Cornell’s neurochemistry program when Searle came calling with their new product. They asked the chairman of the department what percentage of people would be adversely affected by ingesting their new sweetener. When he replied that he thought that 15% could suffer ‘irreversible neurological damage’, the Searle people actually smiled. 15% was a reasonable number to these people, given that the Cyclamate artificial sweeteners had just been pulled from the market, and there was pressure to do the same with saccharine. There was just too much money to be made to let the health of a few million people get in the way.Since those early studies were not encouraging, (and in fact the FDA was set to rule against them), Searle started paying for their own studies, and to increase their chances of getting to market even more, they hired consummate Washington insider Donald Rumsfeld as CEO. The day after Ronald Reagan’s inauguration, the FDA (with the hasty addition of a 6th voting member) abruptly reversed course, and legalized Nutrasweet.Nutrasweet, Neotame and the venerable Monosodium Glutamate are all classified as Excitotoxins, toxic compounds mated to amino acids in such a way that the body sees them as nutrients and absorbs them readily. It’s like some kind of diabolical Trojan Horse, ushering in the most potent poisons masquerading as nutrients.Many people know of the MSG headache, or the fuzziness that can accompany a Nutrasweet binge, but are unaware what these warning signs really attest too. They portend potential cellular changes, neurological destruction, endocrine imbalances, and immune system chaos.There is striking evidence that Nutrasweet can also cause or help cause Macular Degeneration, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease (it’s been shown to produce pinholes in the brains of rats), Graves Disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and several other neurological and autoimmune conditions, as well as the numerous, aforementioned cancers.Both Searle, and their later parent purchaser, Monsanto, vociferously fought any attempts to get this highly-toxic substance off the market. Their only concern is shareholder equity; Profits, growth and dividends trump any moral qualms.If the FDA really cared about you and I, every cow would be tested for mad Cow disease, factory farms would be forced to deal with their huge waste lagoons, cruelty to animals, and antibiotic and steroid use. Nutrasweet, Neotame, and a host of other dangerous chemicals including trans fats, Olestra, and genetically-modified crops would be illegal. Instead, we have all become unwitting lab rats, with a stew of biochemical experiments and genetically modified substances combining and recombining in completely un-knowable ways in our guts, our bloodstreams, our nerves, and in our brains.There was a hoax on the Internet that Neotame would be allowed, unlabeled, in Organic foods. I’m very relieved to know that this is not true. But beware: Monsanto, and all of the big agribusiness companies are constantly working to weaken the USDA Organic standard to the point that it’s as utterly meaningless as the word ‘natural’ has become on food labels.Rid yourself of these toxins. Grow your own food and get involved with your local organic food growers and purveyors, and petition the federal government to maintain and enhance the integrity of the USDA organic standard, and to return the FDA to its mandate: serving and protecting the people, instead of furthering corporate interests at the people’s expense.

Just in case you didn't get enough of last week's topic, this episode features more rectal goodness ­ see episode Luc's Special Honey for the preamble. John is surprised to discover that honeydew comes from an aphid's ass, but after some discussion appears to get excited about the prospect of drinking honeydew. We discuss the commercial possibilities and marketing challenges. In the superhero's phone booth, Warren proposes Biowarfare Chick, who mutates viruses after getting their attention, and "sicks" them on criminals. We accidentally stumble on the weakness of her crime procurement strategy: personal hygiene. And the delay between infection and illness. And the fact that every innocent bystander will also probably get sick. If you can think of any other weaknesses in this superhero, let us know by email (maskedman@limitedappeal.net).
