I am consistently shocked how much higher quality the food is in France and The NL when I visit; even the sloppy mall restaurants were higher quality. Paris was off the charts. The worst quality food we had there was above average for here.

And do not be mistaken, the US wants this for Europe too. They want a few rich people to dictate everything world wide.

Eat our chlorine chicken!

Fuck. That. Shit.

Europe is already moving in wrong directions here and there (hello chat control) so we gotta be enormously careful that they won't bend the knee on anything else

Europeans need to hold these corrupt politicians in the positions of power accountable.

Tin Foil Hat time: So what the gov/corps wants to do is make those people who cook their own food become sick/distrustful of safe food so they buy the heavily processed premade products from the tobbacco...I mean FOOD companies filled with all their artificial ingredients that hook you into a junk food addiction downward spiral.

....now that I say (write) that out loud (virtually) it doesn't sound that far fetched

Wait why would premade foods be better than making your own
