    I worked in an industrial bakery for a while and was so mortified by the cleanliness and safety conditions that I basically only ate fresh vegetables & fruits and dry beans for several months because I was so worried about eating anything that had been under a factory roof

    Was it good for my dietary health? Probably, but I spent a ridiculous amount of time on cooking and food prep and neglected other areas of my life to make up for it.

    Everything sucks.

        Yes. As I am insane, I also treat my raw fruits and vegetables with a UV light (not that this would inactivate endotoxins though. For that you’re SOL)

        Always wash the ever loving FUCK out of your produce and dry legumes.
