If you want to understand the nature of Pringles and other stackable chips, you
can forget idea that they are made from actual potatoes in any recognizable way.
The Pringles Company (in an effort to avoid taxes levied against luxury foods like
chips in the UK) once even stated that the content of potatoes in their chips was
so small that they are technically not even a potato chips.
The chips move forward on a conveyor belt where theyre pressed onto
molds, that gives them the curve that helps them fit into one another.
Those molds move through boiling oil Then are blown dried, sprayed with the
powdered flavors, and at last, placed onto a slower-moving conveyor belt specially
made allowing them to stack. After that, they go into the cans and off to the
innocent mouths of the consumers.
I think that mostly everyone reading this, enjoys the taste of potato chips.
However, one thing is clear, they are one of the most toxic processed foods you
can eat it doesnt matter if they are made from actual potato shavings or not.
Potato Chips are Loaded with Cancer-Causing Chemicals.
One of the most hazardous ingredients in potato chips are not intentionally
added, but rather are a byproduct of the processing.
A cancer-causing and potentially neurotoxic chemical, Acrylamide, is created when
carbohydrate-rich foods are cooked at high temperatures, whether fried, baked,
toasted or roasted. Some of the worst offenders include French fries and potato
chips, but many foods cooked or processed at temperatures above 212F (100C)
are likely to contain acrylamide. The main rule is: the chemical is formed when the
food is heated enough to produce a fairly dry and yellow/brown surface.
Hereby, it can be found in:
Potatoes: French fries, chips and other fried or roasted potato foods
Grains: toast,bread crust, roasted breakfast cereals, crisp bread and various
processed snacks.
Coffee: ground coffee powder and roasted coffee beans. Surprisingly, substitutes
for coffee based on chicory actually contain 2-3 times MORE acrylamide than real
coffee.
Cape Cod Robust Russet: 910 times the legal limit of acrylamide
should always avoid charring your meat, and never eat the blackened sections.
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs): When fat drips onto the heat source,
causing excess smoke, and the smoke surrounds your food, it can transfer cancercausing PAHs to be created in the meat.
consumed raw. Personally, i consume about 80 percent of the food raw, and I
think that this is one of the most important factors that keeps me healthy.
It may take you some time to switch over to a less processed diet, but it would be
a great start if you throw out the most obvious culprits.
These would include: potato chips and French fries, all kinds of sodas (both
regular and diet, as artificial sweeteners may be more problematic than fructose),
Doughnuts.
mentally and physically, and even financially, as processed foods are typically
more expensive than cooking yourself a healthy meal from scratch.
