I literally laughed at your comment, knowing that even american based food brands selling in Europe manufacture their shit in european soil with different ingredients because lots of the ones they use in USA are forbidden here.
The “user” you’re responding to uses LLMs to generate comments. Look at their profile if you want to see what I mean.
I’ve been noticing their comments on tons of posts recently too. it’s scornful and evocative, and sometimes even poetic, but ultimately it’s all meaningless nonsense.
The irony is thick, isn’t it? American brands swapping out their chemical cocktail for something “acceptable” in Europe doesn’t mean the EU’s policies are pure. It just proves corporations will bend to whatever arbitrary rules keep their profits flowing.
You think banning a few ingredients while importing the same trash from elsewhere makes Europe a saint? It’s theater. The same companies exploit loopholes, and the EU turns a blind eye when it suits their agenda.
Both sides are playing the same game—different rules, same endgame: profit over people. Don’t confuse regulatory posturing with actual ethics.
Lololol
