My wife and I were talking about how often we learned about wives poisoning their husbands in history. We also talked about how we thought quicksand was a much more prevalent thing in the world (maybe drought is making it less so?). Tonight I was thinking how poisoning is still very common. But I’m sure I poison my family more than my wife poisons me by far. She does not promote nor buy junk food. But I do from time to time. I don't think it's that big of a deal in smaller amounts, but perhaps it is. I have had friends who thought it was a big deal, and my wife does to an extent.
Anyways I think we are all poisoning ourselves and our loved ones regularly. With highly modified foods, synthetic additives to foods, synthetic fragrances, plastics, heavy metals, and all the whatever else.
No real point here, just wanted to share a thought. Perhaps I should poison my family less. If I am more cautious about the common poisons in our day maybe I won’t be part of the group looked down on and taught harshly about in history.
