Food labels.

Make your own - you then know what is there.

I love venison and even after buying it minced, recently I made burgers with the grandson and they worked out cheaper than normal beefburgers with doubtful content and took just 5 minutes.

A bit mean making burgers with the grandson when you had venison available.

I noticed one of the ingredients is rapeseed oil, I have a family member with psoriasis, she recently took 5 of the oils you find in just about everything out of her diet and was cured of a whole range of things pretty much within days, the catch is you won't find anything in a supermarket that doesn't have rapeseed or sunflower oil in, you would think olive oil wouldn't have rapeseed oil in, it often has because it's cheaper.

I now try to only eat things that have olive oil, no rapeseed or sunflower oil.

Interesting ! Some believe it’s not the oil itself but the solvents used to maximise extraction. With processed food they are bound to use the lowest grade of oil they can get away with and as you say, often blended . Wonder if using virgin olive oil or other first press oils have the same effect.

Olive oil is fine but you won't find it in processed food, way too expensive, cold pressed rapeseed/sunflower oil is supposed to be ok but again probably too expensive, I was surprised to hear that Marks and Spencer are among the worst culprits, they even put rapeseed oil in their olives, you can't get away from the stuff.

Thanks for the posting. Psoriasis is much more common now as are other skin condition, a sharp rise noted in the last two decades.

pomace olive oil, another cheaper oil that rides under the olive label. ! I knew that rapeseed/cannoli is wide spread in processed food as it’s light, relatively healthy and has no strong flavours. Lately it’s replacing palm oil as this is not so environmentally friendly.
 
The processed oils are toxic to some degree. They are not 'vegetable oils'. mainly seed and nut.
Butter, lard, dripping, organic coconut, olive oil (dark green bottles), ghee, avocado are all better for you.
Unless of course you believe the cholesterol scam.
 
The total haddock content is 36.52% as clearly indicated on the label (DIYDave alluded to this). Eh? That's 98% of the 24% smoked fish (haddock) being actual fish, plus 13% of plain haddock. There may be some other haddock material (fish bone stock), but that cannot be labelled "fish".

I agree, but for decades of my life I was told that butter was bad for me and spreads with all sorts of processed cr@p in were 'healthy', for all those decades I didn't know that the food industry was one giant racket conning everyone into eating junk pretending to be everything from 'reduced fat' to 'sugar free' when actually they are just what we now call 'ultra processed'.
 
Yes, lots of false info produced by big corporations paying for research which had already decided the outcome to sell more of their rubbish.
Does any one realise that statins are only good for certain cases and are applicable to about 1% of people with certain heart conditions?. They even wanted to put it in the drinking water !!!
Look at labels on foods. There are 30 different names for MSG.(poison)
Don't eat anything with sweeteners...again lots of allowed hidden names.
If a product has more than 4 ingredients...don't eat it. (general rule)
I eat about 10 eggs a week. Very little tinned food. Don't really eat out. 95% fresh veg and some frozen... like peas.
No farmed salmon (toxic). Nothing "lowfat".
I am a PURE BLOOD, but wont go into that. Suffice to say...it's all coming out now.... as suspected for 3 years.
 
Food labels to coronavirus?

Couple of things he said in that vid aint correct, they maybe are for Germany but age standardised mortality was higher in 2020 in the UK and overall according to the Office for National Statistics, and Sweden didn't fare better than Germany, it had significantly higher deaths according to Johns Hopkins University CSSE Covid19 data, just two points that anyone can check in two mins.

For a more detailed explanation on why he is talking nonsense.. https://www.econstor.eu/bitstream/10419/240417/1/2020-08.pdf this has been knocking around since 2020 so the guy that presents the vid knows it's been debunked.
 
“Butter, lard, dripping, organic coconut, olive oil (dark green bottles), ghee, avocado are all better for you.”

Of these only olive oil passes the grade (little data on avocados). The rest are highly saturated oils/fats. Almost all of these have deep cultural history in terms of food and therefore many believe them to be above reproach. In the UK, the upper classes ate butter while the lower classes had lard or dripping. Both had the same effects then as they do now but with a host of more common diseases and the poor living conditions for the poor, meant that many coronary/ vascular diseases never came to light.
 
As per food...everything you were told about the Cov debacle was wrong.
See Ivor Cummins, Prof. Norman Fenton, Prof John Ioannidis
, Dr Aseem Malhotra. Vejon Health, Dr John Campbell (eventually).

You are right they are what you call 'saturated fats'..... which people still believe is linked to heart disease.

In your case, the haddock content in the cake is probably a mix of 24% smoked haddock and 13% unsmoked haddock, which adds up to 37% haddock overall. The remaining ingredients would make up the rest of the cake, including things like potatoes, cheese, spices, and other additives.If you're looking for more detailed info on food ingredients and labels, some sites offer a lot of scientific literature and resources on naturally food. It can be quite enlightening if you're interested in understanding more about what goes into the foods we eat.
