Microbes are still made of chemicals, it’s just different chemicals
I hate the “chemicals bad” nonsense. It’s ignorant fearmongering. Meanwhile I eat chemicals for breakfast.
“It’s 100% natural!” “So is arsenic.” …
When I see “without chemicals” I just assume it’s shorthand for “without known harmful chemicals, probably” until I carefully read the label and learn more
Everyone who eats and drinks chemicals will eventually die!
I knew someone who ate a chemical once and they died so it must be true.
Oooo, quercetin, so spooky like myricetin and kaempferol. I can’t even go outside for fear of the chemical cyanidin. Wait. Those are just banana flavour compounds. My bad.

I’m excited to see the first color to cause a mass health event because the color wasn’t fully sterilized because of cost cutting. I’m sure people will be really normal about it.
Bets on red btw.
