Propane too.


Dang, eh !!

Velveeta isn't cheese. It is an edible petroleum byproduct.

And a war monger slams Obama for not escalating war... big surprise there.

Wow Cliffy, what on earth gave you that bizarre idea?


Milk, water, milk fat, whey, milk protein concentrate, whey protein concentrate, sodium phosphate; contains less than 2% of: salt, calcium phosphate, lactic acid, sorbic acid as a preservative, sodium alginate, sodium citrate, enzymes, apocarotenal (color), annatto (color), and cheese culture.[4]

For those who've ever been confused by the term 'edible oil', and mistakenly think there is any such thing as 'edible petroleum'.

Yummy, chemical soup. Makes me want to run out and over indulge in some right away.

Ya, I know it is a bizarre idea. I say the same thing about coffee whitener. To me, it is like saying McDonald's serves food.

Avoid processed food all you like, but, something being processed food and being a petroleum product are not the same thing.

Yes, I know, but sometimes saying outrageous stuff like that gets people thinking about what they are actually ingesting.

Or it makes them discount anything you say in the future, because you have no clue what you're talking about.

Cliffy has to get a dig in to the Tar... Oops Oil sands wherever he can.

BINGO!

Keep keeping it on the left side Cliff! Make it all up and keep pressing. Enough of the dopes will believe it.

Atta girl Karrie.

Processed food or chemicals on toast, whatever. Velveeta is simply gross and the world will be a better place with a shortage, you just wait and see.

I have box of it in hand. ingredients are: milk, water, cheese, sodium phosphates, salt, sodium alginate, cellulose gum, lactic acid, sorbic acid, colour, ground mustard, spice and corn starch.


Nope, no oil . How the hell did that happen?

I don't think I have ever expected anybody to take me seriously. Secondly, eating Velveeta is about as nourishing as drinking 10 - 30 oil. The only difference is that it tastes better.

The bulk of the ingredients are.... Milk, water, milk fat, whey, milk protein concentrate, whey protein concentrate. About as nourishing as 10W30. hmmm. That's a pretty bold statement. You're apparently pretty jaded about dairy.

 

[damngrumpy]

A cheese shortage does that mean America will at last no longer be all bunged up?
just asking. Obama causes cheese shortage, I haven't seen anyone blame him for
the blizzard and ice storm yet.

Exactly. It's not an edible petroleum product, it's gelled goat phlegm.

One thing Americans and Canadians can't do is proper cheese. It's all processed gunk over there.

So, you have been here, have you? Canadian Cheddar is second to none. We actually have a lot of very good cheeses here. Velveeta is a Yanky invention and is a cheese like substance that does not resemble real cheese at all.
