Potato Chips ???


What's Really in Potato Chips ???
Dr Mercola

To Understand The Nature Of 


Pringles And Other Stackable Chips,
Forget The Nation That They Come
From Actual
Potatoes in Any Recognizable Way.
The Pringles Company
In An Effort To Avoid Taxes Levied
Against " Luxury Foods "
Like Chips in The Uk
Once

The Pringles Company

(in an effort to avoid Taxes Levied
 Against Potato Content Of Their
 Chips Was So Low That They Are
 Technically Not Even Potato Chips

So If Thay're Not Made Potatoes
 What Are They Exactly ?????


The Process Begins With A Slurry
 Of Rice, Wheat , Corn ,
 And Potato Flakes That Are Pressed

Into Shape.
 This Dough-Like Substance is Then
 Rolled Out Into An Ultra-Thin Sheet
 Cut into-Cookies By A Machine.

According To io9 :
 The Chips Move Forward On A
 Conveyor Belt Until They're Pressed
 onto Molds, Which Give Them The Curve That Makes Them Fit into One Another.
Those Molds Move Through Boiling oil
 Then They’re Blown Dry Sprayed
 With Powdered Flavors,
And At Last,Flipped Onto A Slower-Moving Conveyor Belt in A Way That Allows Them To Stack.
 From Then On, it’s into The Cans …
 And Off Towards The innocent Mouths Of The Consumers.
 I Suspect Nearly Everyone Reading This Likely Enjoys The Taste Of Potato Chips.
 However, They Are Clearly One Of The Most Toxic Processed Foods You Can Eat
 Whether They’re Made From Actual Potato Shavings Or Not.

Potato Chips Are Loaded With Cancer-Causing Chemical

One Of The Most Hazardous ingredients in Potato Chips is Not intentionally Added,
 But Rather is A Byproduct Of The Processing.

Acrylamide, A Cancer-Causing And Potentially Neurotoxic Chemical,
 is Created When Carbohydrate-Rich Foods Are Cooked At High Temperatures,
 Whether Baked, Fried, Roasted Or Toasted. 
 Some Of The Worst Offenders include Potato Chips And French Fries,
 But Many Foods Cooked Or Processed At Temperatures Above 212°F (100°C) May
 Containacrylamide
