7. No wonder fast food burgers taste so unhealthy and cause long-term side effects.
You guys also know that:

* 90% of "fresh-squeezed" Orange Juice is a pasteurized tasteless substance injected with primarily artificial Orange Flavoring made from "natural" chemical perfumes designed to simulate the taste of each brand's own recipe for super sweetened orange juice. This is why store-bought orange juice tastes nothing like fresh-squeezed orange or grapefruit juice.

* The delicious aroma on which Starbucks and other chains based their entire empire of "fine" coffee establishments is piped-in from a perfume oil machine, using similar techniques. The actual coffee is notoriously shitty in taste tests, ranking below Maxwell House. Yet yuppies still flock to "name brand" coffee bars to futz around on their laptops while looking professional in a public place. Our local "upscale" chain doesn't even offer food -- all they have is a microwave -- yet yuppies still flock to it while ignoring local "downscale" breakfast eateries.
