| COKTOE said: I'll never buy anything from EA again, even from the discount bin, and there's a small number of like minded people out there. There are so many great games from more scrupulous companies. It's far from an actual sacrifice, just an easy-to-make decision. I'm not surprised there's been no real change in consumer habits after the fallout. In 2014, it was revealed Subway was feeding it's customers bread "with a side of chemicals said to be used in yoga mats and shoe soles." A substance called azodicarbonamide. For years. To, and I quote: " Make their bread 'More bread like'. A massive betrayal of consumer trust. Yet people still line up like drones for Subway sandwiches, even in a food court environment, where there are dozens of other options, because *shrugs shoulders*. I haven't been back since, and never will be. Fuck EA, fuck Activision, and fuck Subway. |
I know this is off-topic but why does the use of chemical compounds that are applicable beyond just being a food additive gross you out so much ?
Food dyes are used in cosmetics/cleaning products, butylated hydroxyanisole are used in rubber, propyl gallate can be used in adhesives, TBHQ is found in potato or other processed foods yet it's also used for varnish and there's silicon dioxide which is just straight up sand that we consume in powdered foods ...
