Real Thing

I heard artificial raspberry flavor is made from the anal glands of monkeys so I researched that to see if it's true.  Relax, it's not.  Raspberry flavor actually comes from the castor sacs of beavers.  Oh, yeah, that's way better.  What psychwad licked a beaver's behiney and said, "Tastes like raspberry!"
I despise artificialness.  If you want raspberry flavor why not use, oh I don't know, RASPBERRY?  What could possibly taste more like raspberry than raspberry?
Since beavers are all natural, though, raspberry flavor from their backends doesn't have to be labeled artificial.  Like that makes it all better.  So beware of natural flavorings.
Folks are saying if you want real, healthy food, buy organic or grow your own.  I'd rather find someone else who grows their own, and eat at their house.  Way easier.
You've heard that saying, "You are what you eat."  Maybe all this artificial crud we eat makes us fake.  Is that why we dine like sumo wrestlers but hope to look like Olympic gymnasts?
Some folks aren't concerned about the absurd concoctions we're stuffing in place of real food because it's FDA approved.  (I don't have the energy to go there, so feel free to fight amongst yourselves.)  But given the choice between sharing a bowl of castor sac of beaver with a life-size Jeremy Renner cardboard cut-out, and snacking on a dish of actual raspberries with Jeremy Renner himself, wouldn't you take the real thing?
