To all those of you who eat-
Thought I’d share a pic of the thrice cooked 🍟 from last week.
I boiled them in the evening, fried them in the morning at 130 degrees C for 5’, and at lunchytime, some 10’ at 180C.

Since they have to cool down before each fry- up anyway, I kept half in the fridge after the 130C until today.
So today 2nd fry-up, some powdered 🧄, 🧅, red 🫑 and salt- so damn crunchlicious!

Now I’d better go do some exercise 🙄

Pic shows some shamelessly golden fries in the fryer basket. Quite the luxury to be able to fry outside… I once made fries in an apartment without steam extractor, and it was smelly hell for a week. So if you’ve got a balcony, in wintertime, your neighbours should have their windows closed and it’s time to outdoor fry and bbq, baby!

The Lancet has several articles in the latest issue on the scourge of ultra-processed foods, which have repeatedly been shown to have adverse health impacts when consumed in quantity (and when pushing healthier choices out of the picture). This editorial leads off:

Oh the audacity to make a comparison between such given singing challenge and junk food 🙃🫠🍔🍟

So why does it have to be anyway? It's affordable in terms of price, accessible for everyone because you can find it everywhere, and able to quench your hunger immediately. But its impact towards our health in the long-term/future? Not really that good.

For me these so-called viral songs are just like junk food: easy and instant to consume but it does not nourish our soul.

It gives me kinda entertainment vibe.
Unlike Indodol airing every week, this Dangdut singing competition appears almost everyday unless there is live Indonesian soccer match. By giving this kind of themed challenge, it is a practical, easy, maybe cheapest and fastest solution to maintain the longevity, sustainability of this show given its consistent performance in terms of viewership #1

Heute Ketchup und Majo selbst gemacht, weil das Zeug aus dem Laden nur noch total sauer ist und aromatisch gar nicht mehr an das erinnert, womit ich groß geworden bin. Und selbst gemacht hat es auch viel weniger Zucker im Ketchup. Außerdem habe ich keinen Bock mehr auf die Industrieware, bei der man nicht weiß, was man da eigentlich isst. Super einfach, super lecker 😄

P. S. die Pommes haben wir direkt von der Kartoffel geschnitten 😁

£300k of sweets and fizzy drinks sold in Swansea Bay hospitals, FOI reveals

The figures show Swansea Bay’s hospitals generated more than £153,000 profit from the sales, up from £141,925 the previous year.

Hospital kiosks made six‑figure profits from junk food sales

The FOI shows a year‑on‑year increase in both sales and profit from confectionery and sugary drinks across Swansea Bay University Health Board sites. The gross profit margin averaged around 48%.

The findings come against a backdrop of rising obesity and type 2 diabetes rates in Wales, with public health campaigns urging people to cut down on sugar.

Freelance journalist uncovers FOI data across NHS sites

The figures were obtained by freelance investigative journalist George Winter, who has been examining junk food sales across NHS sites in Wales and the wider UK.

“This expenditure at a time of soaring rates of type 2 diabetes and obesity is scandalous and Swansea Bay UHB should justify their spending on junk food,” he said.

Doctors call for healthier hospital food environments

The British Medical Association has previously urged NHS hospitals to phase out vending machines selling high‑sugar products.

“Hospitals should be setting an example, not selling products that contribute to obesity and diabetes,” the BMA said.

Health Board response

Swansea Bay University Health Board was invited to respond to this article, however after over a week they were unable to provide an approved statement.

At a glance: Swansea Bay hospital junk food sales

  • 💷 2023/24 sales: £295,677 → £141,925 profit
  • 💷 2024/25 sales: £318,891 → £153,068 profit
  • 📈 Profit margin: 48%
  • ⚠️ Context: Rising obesity and type 2 diabetes rates in Wales

My aunt used to call junk food, near-food. Pepsi calls it fun for you food. It appears that ultra processed “food” is worse that that. Because consumption generally indicates poor socio-economic status, like poverty. We should focus on fixing that too.
