We’re All Confused

Poor little darlings, we need our betters to tell us what’s what.

Fruit juice should be removed from the recommended list of healthy things to eat daily because it is confusing for parents, say campaigners.

Action on Sugar found many children’s juices contain at least six teaspoons of sugar – more than cola – and come in cartons larger than recommended.

Yup, the vile puritans at the fake charity Action on Salt Sugar are at it again. This time it’s fruit juice, and parents – all being far too thick themselves – need these charlatans to tell them what to do. It is, of course, remarkably simple. Children are the responsibility of their parents. And no one got ill through drinking fruit juice. Since giving up coffee, I drink a fair bit of the stuff. And I am nowhere near obese and my teeth are all just fine. In other words, these parasitic popinjays are doing what they do best – lying to us. There is nothing wrong with fruit juice, just as with other foodstuffs. Eat and drink what you like – if you don’t burn off what you consume, you will put on weight. And as for banning fruit juice from the five a day codswallop, no sane person pays that any heed anyway. As I said, eat and drink whatever you want. Your body, your business and nothing to do with the temperance scumbags festering in the third sector sucking funds from our back pockets to feed their voracious appetite.

Action on Sugar says the guidelines are baffling.

Only if you are stupid enough to take any notice of them. I am not remotely baffled because I don’t bother to read them, let alone pay them any heed. The state is not the best arbiter of what is in my best interests, I am.

  1. “The state is not the best arbiter of what is in my best interests, I am.”

    I must say LR, that I’m hard pushed to think of any instance in which the state is the best arbiter on anything – other than its own interests, and those of its apparatchiks

  2. It’s just another thing to add to the ban it list …..until a bit later on there is a total turn around as there has been with butter vs high processed products with trans fats in, and full fat milk which it now appears is NOT as bad for us as we have been told.
    Oh and lets not forget artificial sweeteners which are carcinogenic.
    Jeasus what can we eat eventually it will be leaves and water.

  3. Ah, but LR, the whole point of groups like AOS isn’t to make us all bounce about with health (yeah, right) and live forever – haven’t you rumbled that one yet? Tut, tut! No, their aim is to make us all suffer in the pursuit of that health. And if carnivorous, carb-eating salad-dodgers have found an easy, pleasant way of adhering at least partly to these zealots’ own daft five-a-day “instructions” then it has to be stopped!

    This is precisely the same kind of pinched-faced, sour, pique which has caused Tobacco Control to get into such a self-righteous frenzy over e-cigs. How dare smokers do as they are told and give up smoking – but then go and find a way of doing it which is enjoyable and doesn’t involve the suffering and pain which ASH and their ilk like to see their “enemies” enduring?? Outrageous! Spoiling all their fun like that!

    This is just the same reaction from a different bunch of people with exactly the same mindset. The details vary, but the motivation is the same. Sadistic sociopaths who conceal their true nature with a thin veneer of “caring” in their propaganda and press releases. God, how I loathe these people!

  4. Don’t forget, people are paid to do this sort of research. If they stop coming up with a new load of rubbish every day, they may be out of a (well paid) job.

  5. At the same time that we have one set of puritans telling us that fruit juice is some kind of life-shortening poison, we also have regular radio ads for ‘Change for Life’ urging us to drink more of the stuff. Can anyone suggest any ways that the government could cut spending without cutting any essential services?
