Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: What is the biggest "lie" told to people in human history?
Demonizing MSG
Definitely not the biggest, but I remember reading na yung eating carrots = good eyesight was WWII propaganda to hide the fact na gumagamit ng radar tech yung UK. Kunwari yun yung source ng accuracy ng soldiers nila, especially at night.
Earth is flat.
High consumption of fat, not sugar, can lead to heart disease

Until today, people still demonize fat. Ayan imbalanced tuloy sila sa nutrients. And stop buying low fat milk! Just buy full cream unless lactose intolerant ka.
Thanks sa last statement, muntik nako masaktan as a consumer ng low fat milk. Ahahahaha. Though switched to plant milks now kasi ayaw na talaga ng tyan ko sa cow milk.
Pero ayun nga, since ancient times naman nagko-consume na mga tao ng fat, lard pa nga eh. Kelan lang naman yang sugar.
