This video is a great example of being "in over our heads." This modern hominid is trying and failing to process reality because reality has become too complex. The point of the video that was made by the hominid is basically "the food says the food is good, but then the food says the food is bad." One part of the bag promises quality. Another part of the bag has a government warning about a chemical in the food that can harm you. One really cannot blame the hominid. Our brains were not made to read about food. Our brains were made to recognize food that we already know and to accept it or reject it. Good food = eat, bad food = leave behind. This hominid is attempting to do its due diligence in reading the descriptions of the food before deciding whether the food is good or bad. And to be fair, the warning sounds pretty bad. So this being was able to go up one level from "good food good, bad food bad" to "bad food sometimes look good." And of course, the way that we identify bad food that looks good is by the label. They have to label it! The government makes them! Right? Well, what if you apply the same logic to the label? Sometimes bad food look good, therefore CHECK LABEL. But sometimes, meaningless label look bad! What then? Well, you would have to check the label of the label somehow. What the fuck? How many layers are there gonna be? (Hint: infinity) I'll save you the legwork: the California law that forces the chip company to print this warning is too broad by A LOT. It turns out that acrylamide is just the chemical that is produced when you brown your food. Fried chips? Acrylamide. Seared steak? Acrylamide. Toasted bread? Acrylamide. And yes, it is carcinogenic. If you eat enough of it, it does increase cancer risk. But you gotta eat a lot. Like a lot a lot. Like your uncle who died 18 years ago, the way he liked his steaks and burgers black on the outside and 4 times a day. A little fried food isn't near that amount. So the reality here is that chips are not health food, but you already knew that. This is not new information. It just sounds like it is because California is gay. So the real question here is not about the chips. It's about how we are supposed to survive in a world where things are not as they seem, and when you check on them, the checking is also not as it seems. How many times do you have to check on the checking? How do you know when you're done doubting the reality in front of you? You don't. Good luck.
