Land o' Goshen! Welcome back to the Snake Oil Bulletin , your weekly round-up of the best in pseudoscientific woo-wooey nonsense to catch the attention of your most handsome salesman, Dr. Fare la Volpe, Naturopathic Chi Master DDS. We've got a whole bushel-full of nonsense and horse puck to sift through, so we might as well get started with the biggest horse apple of them all, the Food Babe.
Been working a lot again. I picked up a third job because I am a lunatic. This latest side gig is at a comedy club, which is somehow worse than it sounds.
No question, for the unfortunate few who do have Celiac disease the silly hysteria is a godsend. For the rest of us, well, its usefulness is up there with detoxing.
The problem is that so many me-too wannabes are not really sensitive to gluten that it increases the likelihood that vendors will play fast-and-loose with the labeling.
Mrs. Chowder is celiac and we've found that the "gluten free" fad is a mixed bag. Yes, more foods and restaurants advertise as gluten free but the restaurants don't all know or adhere to the *strict* need to segregate even the utensils used to cook gluten free foods. We're lucky that her reaction is not severe enough to cause a trip to the ER when she eats contaminated food but she knows within an hour what is really gluten free vs. what is fadvertising.

I'm British. Am I allowed to use tea instead of coffee?
That's disgusting. Aren't there any decent coffee shops to get an enema in?

Ben Greenfield is clearly the latest pseudonym of Michael Kenyon, the Illinois Enema Bandit.
Straight from the teapot, yes.https://www.youtube.com/wat...
"no poo-poo jokes"
We weren't a religion before?
I just read some other nutritionist (no idea, sorry) say that you need the fat in fat in order to better digest vegetables.
I bet he was a liar tho.
Perhaps a French roast enema will improve your French...? *Mesdames et Messieurs*
Ain't you sweet <3
Do I get points if I said "mon-sewers" out loud?

I have a saline nose spray that is gluten free, no mention of the fact that it contains known chemicals -- salt and water.
I like the "natural vitamins" that "contain no chemicals".
