Google is your friend... The palm oil used today replaced partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, which replaced lard, which was used up until the 1990s.
At what point does an ingredient go from "natural" to "processed"? Harvesting wheat is technically processing it, grinding it up is also a process, removing the bran is a process. SO many people are afraid and use "scary" words like PROCESSED as if thats a bad thing. We have the technology to finely control every single ingredient in our food. Thats a staple of the modern world. Each ingredient is specifically chosen to either make the food last longer, taste better, or provide more nutrients. Companies will choose whichever combination they see fit to sell the most product because in the end, people buy food they enjoy eating. If the only thing that were on shelves were 100% super "healthy", "natural" "unprocessed" foods. Most things would rot much faster and likely taste worse. Like everything in life, there is a balance.
@@TheRedstoneFactory wherever the line is, oreos are definitely beyond it lol. probably sugars and refined flour is where food starts turning into empty calories which seems to be a major problem of processed foods
As someone who can’t have soy trust me soy lecithin is in EVERYTHING. I have to cook most of my own food now and I find more and more products using it.
Totally agree with you. I have a can of Campbell's P&B that had no soy in it; now they do. The only bread I can buy is Martin's Potato Bread because it has no soy in it. My son has been hospitalized because of soy allergy and I watch what I buy now.
@@GanggsterR Soy lecithin can be grown to be organic actually by using organic soybeans. So I just don’t get premade foods since even ones labeled as organic can have it.
Too bad food "science" virtually totally disregards nutritional aspects about food. Yes, there are food scientists and companies that place an emphasis on creating tasty yet nutritional alternatives to processed foods, but today's food science is first and foremost committed to creating profit rather than health.
@@valerieblackthorn13who cares about his accent ? We should be interested in the real effects of bioengineered products and I’m sure they , in the long run, are disastrous.
I could once eat Oreos without any restraint. However, in my mid-20s, I had one in my mouth and felt the slime from the oil on my teeth and never touched an Oreo since that 30 - 35 year’s ago experience. Now I want to watch this show to find out what created that taste aversion in me so many many years ago. Bring it on!
As a vegan, if this ingredient is replacing milk and eggs in traditional recipes, I hope the manufacturers do not take on board his final recommendations of replacing soy lecithin!
@@adamwyett3157 i believe sunflower lecithin is a common substitute to replace soy. there's also other emulsifiers that can be added to stabilize the oil-water mixture. it's why you often find gums in a lot of vegan products that don't contain an animal source of protein-water-fat matrix.
They definitely did. Each one of those ingredients has hundreds if not thousands of scientific studies. New research shows plant oils are generally unhealthy. Some exceptions for extra virgin olive and avocado oils. The kind that are green and taste like plants. That’s just one example of an ingredient that could be explored. All of these other ingredients have way more to be explored
This was brilliant and this guy Bruno is awesome!! I subscribed because of this video 😂 Seriously though, this needs to be a series with him on more foods we consume because I'm 2nd guessing my consumption of Oreos now, as well as, many other foods. Thank you Bruno!
If you are looking into making a switch based on ingredients in your food and to start eating clean 4 ingredients to look out for are -Enriched Flours -High Fructose Corn Syrup (Can ruin your liver just as effectively as alcohol because of the fructose) -Vegetable Oils (Soybean, Canola, Grapeseed, etc) Go for Extra Virgin Olive Oil, High Oleic Sunflower/Canola Oil, and Avocado Oil. These are all anti-inflammatory oils with great benefits - Maltodextrin All ingredients I would avoid. (Also if you see these ingredients the odds are the food has many more terrible ingredients)
I want more of these videos because I always look at the ingredients and try to make the best sense of them, and this honestly soothes me little cause I'm always paranoid on what goes into my body. So knowing helps and this video helps with knowing
@@oggyoggy1299 I think paranoia is valid if you start to realize that the food you always took for granted as being healthy turns out to be unhealthy. Not having always been paranoid doesn’t exclude you from being paranoid now. Regardless, you act like the packet of cookies is poison. It’s obviously not. Acute poisonings require immediate medical attention. The universe is is ‘radioactive’ and yet we aren’t paranoid about radiation sickness. A packet of cookies is unhealthy. Because of all the ingredients they add to it, these ingredients promote things like inflammation, cancer, etc. Eat them once and you’re fine. Stop eating them and you still will probably be fine. That’s a matter of genetics. That isn’t to say they’re healthy or should even be sold. I don’t think they should. But the difference between ‘unhealthy’ and acutely toxic or ‘poisonous’ should be recognized. Lack of sleep must also be ‘poisonous’ because it turns out that’s bad for you too. What about working hard? Stress is bad too so is working criminal?
canola and soybean is more inflammatory than palm oil; your body would recognize palm oils as a okay source of food. with the other two, they are so processed your body would know what to do.
I would dig much deeper into the effects of BIO ENGINEERED FOODS. He probably is a spokesman for the company and barely touched the issues. He did name the ingredients, not the effects.
Thanks for this content. I was trying to explain to my younger sister that Oreos doesn't have any dairy products and she was not believing it. Now I will show her this.
These packaged cookies are fine, but I basically never buy them because I can just walk over to the grocery store's bakery and get cookies that are 10x better.
Just looked them up. Ingredients here are not the same as the ones shown on the online ingredients label. Minute 4:51. Missing high fructose corn syrup. Super bad for health. Look it up.
Peanuts after being declared as common allergen, peanut allergy is on the rise. While in Asia, it is actually uncommon enough, that if you have a peanut allergy, you're extra special because people will talk about you. Exposure to allergens at a young age in a controlled manner reduces the chances that your immune system will act against it. Keeping on removing common allergens from food will just cause the allergy rates to spike and keep on growing.
The fact that the oreo company did not want to comment… Red flag. Also, thank God I don’t eat like that anymore. Also, can you do more of these videos! Also, how can he know all these ingredients and still eat them? Lol. 😅
Curto assistir uns videos em inglês, vejo essa thumb, clico e do nada esbarro com um engenheiro/cientista de alimentos BRASILEIRO nele (ou que ao menos parece ser pelo sotaque). Que louco! Suspeitei pela pronúncia do "Combining" aos 0:47
This feels like a sales pitch for ultra processed food. Using scientists to give the impression that the food is normal / safe. If anything it feel WSJ is getting paid to run this series.
Don’t eat these types of cookies made by large food manufacturing companies. Too many bad ingredients. Very unhealthy for you Make your own cookies or just don’t eat them.
Here in the netherlands there is a factory that produces the oreo cookies and makes them black with big amounts of Amonia. This is very bad for the environment and made the news a couple of weeks ago
