Seriously. I sorta watched Netflix's You are what you eat documentary. If you haven't watched it, it's basically veganism propaganda, in my opinion. The point is some expert says something like "OMG, cheese is actually addictive!". It just baffled me. Like, what's the damn problem with cheese being addictive? If it is at all, it is addictive for me and it will be like that my whole life, because I feel empty if I don't include cheese in my diet... So, fuck yeah!
Oh no, foods we've been eating for over 10k years are addictive! The horror!
Water is addictive! Try to live without it a coupe of days and you'll get the worst abstinence syndrome ever!
I haven't seen it, but the problem is that dairy is consumed to ungodly levels in the US, and even mandatory for school food programs, I believe. The problem with dairy is the myth that it's vital to a healthy diet, despite like 50% or more of the world not being able to properly digest it.
If it's addictive, then seems like a bit of an issue if it's being pushed on kids.
It's not gonna kill you in moderation, though.
The US really has a weird obsession with cheese, in my opinion. I live in Australia, a western country with the majority having European ancestry. As such cheese is consumed, in large qualities also. But my lordy, the US is on a whole other level with cheese.
The most revolting thing I've seen is "gooey" liquid cheese "sauce".
🤢🤢🤢🤢 Yikes.
Haha, sorry for the rant, kind internet stranger, I am glad you enjoy your cheese, and if it makes you happy, then bless your heart, even if I don't understand personally
I'm not talking about dairy in general, just cheese. To me, it's just wonderful to have so many different types of cheese and I want to taste them all, even those that smell awful.
But yeah, the FDA recommends three daily glasses of milk for Americans (which I'm not, BTW). That by itself is absolutely ridiculous.
