    I don’t know how well this holds up, given that processed food is MADE from unprocessed food.

    And we’ve progressed enough that we can tell if something is safe to eat without paying someone to eat it and watching if they get sick…

    Not here for an argument, your comment is just genuinely confusing

        Nono, not acknowledging the sacrifices of the first people to forage a wild hot pocket and try it, blind to the knowledge of if it was edible or thermally safe is immoral.

        When you eat a bowl of berries you’re relying on the sacrifices of unpaid and forgotten people who tried them first and didn’t die.
        When you eat a heaping bowl of pop tarts ™ you’re relying on the sacrifices of paid and forgotten people who tried them first and didn’t die in legally actionable numbers.

        The key to solving the immorality of exploiting these people is money, because money solves morality.
