      Yeah, there’s a lot going on there because, on one hand, we know there are bacteria which are going to find a way to make you crave sugar, but on the other hand, there’s a psychological entertainment factor from the sweetness, But then, again, the taste buds in your asshole can sense the sucralose in the same way that disgusting fast food keeps people addicted by hyper-simulating their gut to crave it. I’m bolderizing this here because I’m not a nutritionist, but you get what I’m saying. Also apologies for any dictation errors or background noise that gets turned into an Aaron Quirk.

        Well there is a reason the top American addiction specialist companies (cigarette industry PM, etc.) bought up all the processed food companies…they had the method but needed to diversity the market because of the backlash & lawsuits for cigarettes.

        Now who would sue a company for producing a daily necessity? At the end of the day all they’d be required to do is soap a label on it saying ‘part of a balanced diet’ or some such bullshit.

        America is driven by addiction.
