Emulsifiers are widely present in ultra-processed foods. A new #PLOSBiology study reveals that, in mice, maternal #emulsifier consumption during gestation and lactation leads to metabolic and neural impairments in the offspring. #metabolism #diet

This is interesting. Not least because the words #emulsifier and #ultraprocessed don't appear at all.

I can think of one reason why a company that makes a living by substituting fat, salt and sugar with starch, calcium lactate/citrate and acesulfame might want to call for higher taxes on more conventional ingredients. What I can't work out is why the Guardian has chosen not to mention it.

In the meantime, this wheeze might best be served with a bucketful of salt.

#MadCatter's captain Martin Mason came on to help call the next match, #Banshee v #Emulsifier, two relatively newer bots.

I do like Banshee's team's outfits. We need more kilts in the world. Emulsifier runs a unique track propulsion system rather than wheels.

In the end Banshee really didn't show anything, not a single flip, and Emulsifier just chewed him up a bit until Banshee just died.

Kids are naturally inclined to learn, they just need the time and space to follow their curiosity.

Tonight at dinner, emulsifiers came up as a topic of discussion. 7 yo provided a definition, clearly knew what they are. She learned about them on her own, from a book or podcast.
