Great now I’ll have to worry about my soda lighting on fire.
Nah it’s a fire retardant so you’ll be fine if anything you can use your soda to put out fires
Ok, without reading the article, let me see if I can guess what it says.
The population of the US exists to serve the needs of the 1% and no threat to the population matters unless the damage impacts their profits.
Am I close?
Worse: basically the rest of the world already banned it and a lot of other toxic stuff that is in our food.
I think my guess includes that by default. Unless the toxic stuff in our food is costing the 1% money, in which case it would be odd that they permit it.
And the US food companies have known this was coming for a loooong time. The biggest names already changed ahead of time.
Mountain Dew has held out the longest.
not really. generics did. mountain dew is the most well known because its the only citrus soda with such a high profile. It basically was a big thing for stabilizing citrus based ones.
Um so when I grab a mountain dew at the store I am consuming a flame retardants? So does that mean I can douse myself in soda and run into a burning building?
Water is also a soda additive and flame retardant
It’s also an industrial solvent!
Not to minimize the fact that BVO is known to be toxic and should have been banned years ago, but yes I hate when they make stupid comparisons like that
but bro. its brominated.
You’d find yourself in a hot pickle, Don Dickle.
You’re like the line in the movie that has the title in it.
ONE MAN.
ONE PICKLE.
I feel like you’ve missed a golden opportunity it to make “dickle” into a suggestive verb. Like “Pickle Patrol 2: Debbie Gets Dickle’d”
Mountain Dew stopped including BVO in 2019. So you’ve been in the clear for at least 4 years.
It has had it here in Colorado still.
Bromine is used in flame retardants AND in brominated vegetable oil. Like chlorine is used to clean your pool water and as a component of table salt.
