""They don't like it because it's foreign," she said. "But if they want to take my Marmite off me they'll have to wrench it from my cold dead hands.""

Loved this quote :D

That looks like a really fucking silly law. They've banned anything with added vitamins or minerals? Wow. That's a massive range of products.

i think the original idea behind the law was any additives, targeted at added fat, salt, E numbers etc, however vitamins and such also fall into this category - and to be honest theres not a broad consensus about the benefits of lots of added vitamins, some research suggests it can lower life expectancy, others that it makes you more healthy and long lived

Same with coffee. Some people simply can't stand the bitter taste of coffee. I got a liking for it when I was about 9 or 10. Tea on the other hand makes me want to puke. Even at it's strongest, it's too weak for me.

I remember reading that there are 3 types of people. Mild, moderate and strong tasters. Strong tasters don't need a lot of taste, or can differentiate between the parts of a taste. Mild tasters need strong tastes just to get a taste reaction... and I reckon I fit that group.

And Marmite is disgusting. :)

Danes heading for mass suicide?

What will they eat if they ban everything fortified by vitamins? Bread is routinely fortified, many drinks use vitamin C as a preservative etc. etc.

They will probably all die of scurvy in the winter :p

Our bacon is better anyway, just most Brits won't pay the extra for it.

I dont eat Danish bacon because it tastes of fish. This is due to them being raised on fish byproducts I'm told.

It's about time it was banned tbh, Tarmac is a far better way to do your driveway.

its quite easy eating natural without additives and not get any lack of vitamins.
I honestly dont see the need to add vitamins and minerals to food

Or they've taken the view that cumulative effects could be hazardous to health.

What if they're right? Have you looked at the English recently? Phenotypic changes are evident and are based on food types eaten, which are most easily predicted by income.

Rich people who eat fresh food = generally not bad lookin'

Poor people = mingers. With deformed kids.

In general ;)

I wondered why that was the case. It does indeed taste a bit fishy.

In the same way some Golden Delicious apples have a faint taste of shit to them. Apparently the french use human faeces on the crops. Never liked 'em :)

People shouldn't eat Danish bacon anyway. It's full of salt and all sorts of shit. It is not the meat that gives it the taste. Factory farmed junk food.

I get mine from the butcher, costs a small amount more but is infinitely better than that crap.
