This Is Why Tomato Juice Tastes Better on Planes
What’s the deal with airline food, amiright? Do they give out those tiny bags of nasty peanuts just to make us feel like giants?Don’t worry, this won’t turn into a poor attempt at a Seinfeld parody, but the airplane food joke that so many comedians turn to in moments of desperation does have some truth to it. We all know that the food served on planes is far from—and probably the exact opposite of—culinary excellence, and that there’s also a less-known reason to never eat food on planes.

If someone on the internet told you to drink bleach, would you do it? Of course not — but when people are told to eat the detergent-filled Pods sold by Tide, they're munching away. Twitter is all soaped up with conversation about eating Tide Pods, simply because they look similar to snack bites.
I thought y’all were so weird for talking about eating Tide pods but now I been thinking about how weird it is for so long that now I’m thinking it might not be weird and I wanna eat one too what is this

Of course not - but when people are told to eat the detergent-filled Pods sold by Tide Some possible precipitating factors are already in place. How the West reacts to them will determine the world's future.

The trend has been part of ludicrous internet conversation for some time, littering Twitter conversation and other circuits with jokes. A hilarious piece by The Onionin 2015 mocked the temptation from the point of view of a child drooling over any miscellaneous object that looks remotely like food. Two years later, the satirical site followed up with another review marveling at imagined sour apple flavored pods.
Other internet comedies, such as this College Humor video, have popped up sporadically to pay tribute to the trend.
People can’t help but fantasize about popping pods in their mouths for a cute bite to eat. The shape and size of the pods allegedly make them too tempting to resist. And apparently, the trend has surged with newfound sincerity this winter.
This Pizza Is A Christmas Feast...But On A Pizza
When you think about it, pizza is kind of already the perfect Christmas food. The colors are very on-brand for the holiday. Traditional Italian pizza is already white (thanks to mozzarella cheese) and red (courtesy of tomato sauce). Sprinkle some oregano and basical on top, and it's basically Santa's hat, complete with a sprig of holly.But that's not good enough for British supermarket Asda, who wants to make pizza as Christmas-y as possible. According to Cosmopolitan, a Christmas dinner-themed pizza is coming to Asda stores, and it sounds...well, a little confusing.

But be aware: Tide Pods are not snack items, nor should they be put anywhere near your mouth. The logic “if it looks like a dumpling, it must be a dumpling” is complete nonsense.
Here’s what eating a Tide Pod can really do to your body.
Meet the Clean 15: The Fruits and Vegetables Least Likely to Poison You
We're sure you've heard of the “Dirty Dozen” - the 12 pieces of produce most likely to have contamination from pesticides, herbicides, and other dangerous chemicals. The Clean 15 is the chemical-free counterpart to that list - the 15 vegetables you're going to want to buy more of at the grocery store.The Environmental Working Group (EWG) devised their Shopper's Guide to Pesticides by analyzing which fruits and vegetables have the lowest pesticide residues in grocery stores. They revise the list every year, ensuring that their recommendations remain updated with current farming practices. This year, they tested 48 of the most popular fruits and vegetables and narrowed down the results to reveal the best and the worst offenders when it comes to pesticide residue.“It is important to note that the samples are tested for pesticides after they have been prepared to be eaten,” the EWG's website warns. “This means the produce is thoroughly washed and, when applicable, peeled. After these preparations, pesticide residues are still detected on many of the fruits and veggies.”Pesticides can have a real impact on the health of your home, with effects ranging from cancer risk to disruptions in pregnancy. Though the Dirty Dozen (which you can find here) are best kept off your grocery list, these are the 15 fruits and vegetables least likely to poison you.
We recommend you broil them - otherwise they might be a bit sour. But don't let that deter you from one of the most nutritious fruits you can eat. Just don't mix them with prescription drugs. That's a really bad idea.
People are crazy about this crunchy cruciferous vegetable - and with good reason. It's been repurposed to replace many a carbohydrate, including rice, pizza crust, and even mashed potatoes. Cauliflower pizza crust might not be much healthier, but it is tasty - and almost pesticide free.
Perhaps it's the hard outer shell that protects this bowling ball of a fruit from the harsh chemical sprays. Whatever the reason, this summer fruit salad star is actually really high in sodium (but don't worry too much about that) and B vitamins.
This underrated fruit has tons of health benefits, and it's super-sweet for smoothies. Go ahead and slice one or just go ahead and bite it like an apple - you can eat the skin!
A seasonal fruit favorite and a staple of Kim Kardashian's diet, the honeydew melon is a teal and tangy solution to your end-of-summer woes. Try cutting up some cubes, using one in a face mask (because no one wants chemicals in their skin care), or slicing one for a recipe or two.
You might not know this, but there's more to the eggplant than just the awkward emoji. Their seeds actually contain nicotine - but that might be the only toxic thing about them.
They're really hard to cut without making a mess, though there's a trick to getting it right every time. Cut two large slices around the seed and then dice into squares inside the skin. If you leave the skin uncut, you can eat the cubes right off of it! If you don't want to go to the trouble, just use the fruit in a savory and sweet recipe.
This vegetable spearheaded this summer with its bold flavor and ease of preparation. Throw a few spears on the grill, toss them in olive oil on the stove, or tuck them into creamy folds of linguine. But beware - they are on our list of foods that make you smell bad.
You might want to wait a bit on this one - though they're free of pesticides, there have been more than a few cases of salmonella this year linked to papayas. At this point, though, the papayas have been recalled and we're finally safe to order a papaya salad side dish at any Asian restaurant.
But only the frozen kind. You should start cooking with these immediately. Despite their undeniable placement on the list of fruits and vegetables that aren't all that great for you, peas have vitamins and minerals such as vitamin K and folate and are loaded with dietary fiber. Buy them frozen - you'll never go back.
We know they make you cry, but you might cry a little less once you learn these simple onion-chopping tricks. And once you get over your fear of the savory vegetable, here's how to pick the right onion for any recipe.
Perhaps not the most popular vegetable in the aisle, but we think it ought to be. Shredded, grilled, or fried, cabbage is a food you should be eating but probably aren't. The pesticide-free vegetable can be bland if you don't cook it right; if you're not sure where to start, here are a few recipes to get you started.
Do you like piña coladas? You're about to like them a whole lot more. They're number three on the list, meaning the pesticide content of each one is appealingly low. Pineapples are weirdly banned at British music festivals, but make a great snack idea for any other occasion. It's smart to save the juices, too - it makes the perfect marinade!
There are more reasons than just their cleanliness to indulge in avocados. Undoubtedly a fan favorite of millennials and hipsters everywhere, the fruit goes great with chicken, bacon, and (of course) sourdough bread. Seriously - people are assaulting each other over them.
Sweet corn just got a whole lot sweeter - it's number one on the list of foods that's least likely to poison you. The starchy vegetable is a grilling favorite and is literally life in Mexico. Americans have taken to dousing their corn in butter and salt - a habit which used to be frowned upon but now might be okay. Butter is actually not bad for you, it turns out, and neither is salt. Here are 12 reasons salt is actually really good for you.
According to one study, ingesting Tide Pods’ detergent could cause a swallowing dysfunction that could require surgery to repair. One child who unknowingly consumed the chemical actually died.
Tide Pod Videos Banned From YouTube for ‘Encouraging Dangerous Activities’
YouTube is absolutely filled with videos of teens doing stupid things — but perhaps none are quite as stupid as eating liquid laundry detergent. The social media sharing site has begun deleting “Tide Pod Challenge” videos, claiming they violate the website’s community guidelines. “YouTube’s Community Guidelines prohibit content that’s intended to encourage dangerous activities that have an inherent risk of physical harm,” a spokesperson for YouTube told The Daily Meal. “We work to quickly remove flagged videos that violate our policies.” Unlike other unhealthy but comparatively benign food trends, like the “Cinnamon Challenge” and consuming gross numbers of calories on camera, the Tide Pod Challenge has teens risking their lives for the sake of subscribers. Regardless of doctor warnings that the challenge is “life-threatening” and overall a really bad idea, the craze continues to thrive on Twitter and everywhere else online. YouTube, however, has never been tolerant of the trend. “We’ve long had policies around harmful and dangerous challenges like this one and we remove the content when flagged,” the spokesperson told The Daily Meal. “We’ve been removing these Tide Pod videos for a while now … prior to the media picking up on this challenge over the last few days.” With the trend growing in popularity, even Tide has joined the campaign to stop teens from gobbling up their product.

Vincent van Gogh used to eat Tide pods because he wanted happiness inside him
- dr. tj eckleburg (@elkalumpy) December 27, 2017
“Vincent van Gogh used to eat Tide pods because he wanted happiness inside him,” said @elkalumpy on Twitter. But what any curious consumer would actually get is complete and utter disaster. Do not consume Tide Pods.
The Daily Meal has reached out to Procter & Gamble Co., the company behind Tide Pods, for comment. But we have a feeling we know what they’d say. This is one of the dumbest food trends of 2017 — and with these idiotic competitors, that’s really saying something.

This Is What Fast Food Actually Does to Your Immune System .
***ImagePlaceholder*** http://www.besthealthmag.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Fast-food-burger-chicken-nuggets-pop.jpg photo credit: shutterstock Don’t get enough sleep? Booze too much? Stressing out? These everyday habits could be ruining your immune system, but the worst culprit may be your fast food habit. A recent study out of the University of Bonn suggests that a typical 'Western diet' (a lot of red meat, sugar, and saturated fat and not much fiber -- basically synonymous with fast food) can kick the immune system into overdrive, causing inflammation. The study, published in the journal, Cell, goes on to connect that inflammatory response to serious conditions like cardiovascular diseases (read: stroke or heart attack) and type 2 diabetes, which itself can lead to cardiovascular diseases, as reported by Science Daily. Researchers, led by Eicke Latz, MD, PhD, director of the Institute for Innate Immunity of the University of Bonn in Germany, placed mice on a Western diet and observed that after only one month, the mice had an inflammatory response akin to that triggered by a serious bacterial infection. 'Fast food thus causes the body to quickly recruit a huge and powerful army,' noted the University of Bonn's press release, as that process notably increases the immune cells in the mice's blood. Even worse? The immune response isn't reversible, the scientists discovered.
