It kills me that the food pyramid was replaced with a circle and not subscript-sized instead. If they had made the portion size the issue then the shape may as well have remained a triangle for all it matters. If calories on Subway Subs are such a marketing tool, then why are the $5 subs selling like crazy. People eat twice as much because the sandwiches are not filling. Hmmm....size matters 12" or 6" you decide. Notice that the above posts are all about words. It kills me that the food pyramid was replaced with a circle and not subscript-sized instead.

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 18:22:51 +0000 http://benisntfunny.com/?p=341#comment-192 I forgot to mention that "based" is the key determinant to a lie. If a premise is based in a lie then the conclusion is a lie as well. In this case, the base = 100% which means it is 100% authentic turkey + chemicals and not a basse at all. It is complete. Take "yes" and "no" for example. Or better yet, "excellent" which are complete. If we put a qualifier such as "very excellent" it actually takes away from the perfect word and becomes a diluting factor. Chicken-based turkey gravy is another example. Turkey stock is available. Even Thanksgiving is not sacred. In this pecking order the chicken trumps the turkey trumps the pig and it is endless. We demand real food. No-base food. Now I will be on the lookout for that word "base" and avoid anything attached to it since it is fake. I forgot to mention that “based” is the key determinant to a lie.

I see because things taste similar they should be okay. Healthier reasons? Try cost saving. A lot of vegetarian burgers taste like chicken. They should replace the chicken sandwiches at Wendy's with them and still advertise them as a chicken sandwich. Why should people care? Tastes the same. If they do care they're just a bunch of angry complainers. Oh… I see because things taste similar they should be okay. Healthier reasons? Try cost saving.

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 18:10:29 +0000 http://benisntfunny.com/?p=341#comment-190 Fraud is fraud. The biology of a turkey does nor include a body part that is equivalent to ham. People understand ham to be from a pig, not a turkey. If it is from a turkey then call it something else. Notice that you can not get a turkey sub at Subway? If it so good for us then why is that the case? They also told me that they don't serve coffee with their breakfast menu because their customers don't ask for it. Really? People that don't eat ham or drink real coffe are their "normal" customers. What is the definition of "normal" while we are at it? Fraud is fraud.

And if you taste the individual meats, they taste like ham, bologna, and salami, yet are healthier than the alternatives. So who cares? Did you think that the meats tasted bad? Don't order it! Personally i'll take the turkey based huge slab of meat for 5 dollars in a heartbeat. You are just looking for things to complain about but when it comes down to it, if it's not hurting you and you like the taste, who cares what it is? This is some post-modernistic BS.

I just heard this too and since I don't eat pork either I went online trying to verify. I found THIS site, but then I found another site which says: Turkey Bologna: Mechanically separated turkey, water, contains less than 2% of: salt, corn syrup solids, potassium lactate, dextrose, sodium diacetate, sodium erythorbate, sodium nitrite, flavorings. Turkey Ham: Cured turkey thigh meat, salt, contains less than 2% of: potassium lactate, brown sugar, sodium tripolyphosphate, dextrose, sodium diacetate, sodium erythorbate, smoke flavor, sodium nitrite, water. Turkey Salami: Dark turkey, mechanically separated turkey, water, salt, contains less than 2% of: potassium lactate, sugar, sodium tripolyphosphate, dextrose, spice and flavorings, sodium diacetate, sodium erythorbate, smoke flavor, sodium nitrite. Hmmmm I wonder if this is accurate! I'm certainly going to ask my local subway!!! @ Marie Adventist…

To clarify, do the cold cut combo meats have turkey AND pig, or just turkey? This is actually good for me, being Seventh-Day Adventist, because I don’t eat pig.
