And would you like a side of MERCURY with that?

More disturbing information coming out about what is in the foods we eat every day. This time it’s Mercury. Yes people, we’re consuming the always hazardous in any form…Mercury. We might as well just crack open a thermometer and take a swig. We’re being poisoned.

All this after learning that the plant that manufactures the Sam and Ella Peanut Butter was aware on at least 5 previous testings, that they had salmonella in their product. Never reported it, but knew it and took no precautions or made changes. The stuff that is in our food supply is astonishing. No wonder we have health problems! Look at the shit we are putting in our bodies.

Back to the mercury. At least 2 agencies tested on 2 occasions, mercury levels in High Fructose Corn Syrup. In 1/2 the samples in agency 1, mercury was found in 9 of 20 samples. In the second test, by another agency, mercury was found in 1/3 of all samples. These ‘samples’ were comprised of 55 Brand Name Foods. Make no mistake…these tests have been performed at least since 2005, according to what I’ve read.

Now, it’s estimated that on average, we consume 12 teaspoons of high fructose corn syrup a DAY. But that’s on average. Can you IMAGINE how much a teen or young child consumes? Oh. My. God. Look at your ingredient labels, if HFCS is on there, it’s most likely #1 or #2… which of course means it’s ‘mostly’ made of that.

If there ever was a time to DEMAND the FDA take high fructose corn syrup out of our products, it is NOW. The FDA has previously recommended not eating a lot of fish due to the mercury content. Let’s all make it known that we’re know what they know. And we’re sick of being poisoned. Get rid of HFCS!!!!!!!!!!

Sam and Ella Peanut Butter

Okay, this is just gross. I’m sure every one’s heard by now about the latest salmonella outbreak, this time in peanut butter products. Gross. But did you know that you should not only get rid of any of those products that people eat…but also any products that may contain peanut products in your PET FOOD? Yep! Check your treat boxes, cans, bags, whatever. And pitch it!

I just heard that although your pet might not display any symptoms other than runny poo or bloody stools, they can still spread, yes SPREAD salmonella! Eweeee. Little Sam and Ella’s can live in your pets STOOL for 4 WEEKS! Four! So if they are not potty trained or happen to track some into the home and someone…for instance a child…is crawling on the carpet and happens to put there hand in an area that the dog was on….and puts their hand in their mouth…BINGO! How nasty is that? Even if you clean the area, the salmonella can still survive.

And if you give your pet a treat that happens to have the samonella? And then make yourself a sandwich? Well, you get the idea.

We are but a speck.

This is truly AMAZING. Thanks to my friend Joanne who emailed me this. I had to post it because it really is fascinating! Especially in the way it is presented.

I CERTAINLY THOUGHT THIS WAS ENLIGHTENING. BEYOND OUR SUN … IT’S A BIG UNIVERSE.

Antares is the 15th brightest star in the sky. It is more than 1000 light years away. Now how big are you?

Now try to wrap your mind around this…..This is a hubble telescope ultra deep field infrared view of countless ‘entire’ galaxies…billions of light years away.

Below is a close up of one of the darkest regions of the photo above.

HUMBLING, ISN’T IT?
Be happy…..and don’t sweat the small stuff!
