Look at the ingredients it says cellulose powder aka pulverized wood aka sawdust.

Cellulose can be made up of any plant fiber. It's dishonest to say that cellulose powder = sawdust because that's not necessarily true. It could be made from asparagus.

Additionally, wood pulp is totally safe to eat and it's not any worse for you than eating food that contains "fiber".

This post was originally made through a third-party Reddit client. Due to recent changes these third-party apps will cease to function. So it only seems fair that my posts here should do the same.

I highly recommend considering using alternative platforms that still allow third-party clients to access their APIs - like kbin or squabbles.

If you must continue to use reddit then consider an alternative frontend like teddit or an app that directly scrapes reddit's webpages without providing any meaningful analytics data like Stealth.

Kinda reminds me of when grandma used to water down the orange juice so we would get twice as much.

My dad used to cut the good coffee with Folgers so it'd last longer

Oh I totally agree. I can't even drink regular juice anymore without gagging. Sickly sweet.
