The Dark Side of Baking

[icecream]

When you bake bread, you give thousands of yeast organisms false hope by feeding them sugar, before ruthlessly baking them to death in an oven and eating their corpses.

[Yong Fang]

One dark thing about getting baked is waking up with a stomachache from eating two cheesecakes and a bag of chili cheese Fritos.

I was thinking about microwaving some peanut butter on bread, but I can't do that because of strong objections to bread, peanuts, and microwave ovens in this forum.

Is it okay to bake something in my gas stove, since the switch for the electric light bulb is broken and I won't be using precious electricity?

There's nothing I can do in the kitchen that someone won't object to. I can't eat an avocado, there may be migrant farm worker issues. I can't eat pizza, the crust may have gluten. I can't eat chicken, the bird may not have been free-range. I can't eat sweets, they rot the teeth. I can't drink fruit juices, they're chock full of cancer-causing chemicals. I can't do juicing with an electric juicer, again the electricity issue.

I can open a can of something by hand, but what about BPA concerns? I can look for other foods, but what if they contain MSG? If I eat like a rabbit and consume mostly lettuce, consider that "leafy greens and other vegetable row crops are a major source of E. coli O157 infections."

The negativity in this forum is something else. Apparently I need to go on a hunger strike until I receive further instruction...!

Don't forget salmon. It might have been farm-raised, not Atlantic-caught.

Eat the pizza. Pile on the pepperoni and the gluten. Thank me later.
