Getting retested for allergies this month. 🫡

That totally justifies me treating myself to the Halloween Build-A-Bear Drop, right?

If you partake in the pumpkin spice drinks, try using chocolate milk mixed with plain milk (if you’re like me and didn’t have enough lol) in your coffee with pumpkin spice creamer.

Not bad. 😋

guys you gotta stop thinking of women in their 30s as elderly it’s just misogyny

[courtesyname]

you also gotta stop thinking about actual elderly women as lesser human beings. Youth is not a measure of one’s worth.

We watched Obsession and Backrooms this past weekend.

Loved (but also hated lol) Obsession and would totally have tried to find a way to either write about it for a rhetoric class paper back in my college days or tried to teach it for Film Class. My husband was soooo pissed off at the guy once he realized what was going on; guess I chose right. 🥰

As for Backrooms, I think I’ll look into the series to see if I enjoy it more than I did the movie. There was some good atmospheric stuff, and I wish we saw more of whatever action wasn’t shown on screen.

Why Manufacturers Are Intentionally Adding Allergens to Their Foods

A trend we predicted in 2016 continues.

US based but it’s similar reasons in other countries. and of course many companies have international locations. idk if that’s why it’s happening with sour patch kids but this is a thing

I cannot even explain how ANGRY I am at this.

My nephew is very allergic to eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, and sesame. Last year my sister discovered all hot dogs and hamburger buns now contain sesame. Not "may contain", but listed in the ingredients. This year basically every brand of sliced bread also now contains sesame, making it very difficult to find bread items he can eat.

They're just adding it to their products, so they can just list it as an ingredient and not bother with worrying about cross contamination. And they aren't even bothering with telling anyone. Capitalism is going to kill us all.

"Which brings us back to Kellogg’s. Back in 2016, the company found a way around the added burden and expense of complying with the FSMA: they simply began adding trace amounts of peanut flour to their cracker products. Doing so allowed them to list peanuts as an ingredient of the product, freeing them from having to prevent cross-contact.

At the time, Kellogg’s notified Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE) about the impending change and left it to them to warn the allergic community. In this case, Pearson’s didn’t even bother as near as we can tell."

I wonder if that’s part of the reason behind my seeing an upswing in products adding corn starch or corn flour to things that didn’t have those before? <- rhetorical question, because I’m certain that’s what’s going on.

[mynameiskleiosgirl]

Well now I know why my body hates everything now. I wonder is they are doing this with onion powder too because I'm seeing it in more products.

it’s never a normal temperature anymore it’s always some fucking bullshit
