Apparently companies are charging about 6 times as much for 'activated' almonds than for regular almonds.

Seriously? For almonds you don't have to cook? They're either charging way too much or way too little, depending on whether their target market is "college kids" or "rich people".

I think if you're that stupid to pay extra for almonds to have a shiatsu massage before you eat them, you don't deserve my dignity why the gently caress do you do such a godawful thing and waste EVERYBODY'S TIME you shitfucking-

Because everyone knows our caveman ancestors existed on activated almonds, alkalized water, and green tea. :jerkbag:

Hunter S. Thompson in 1979, to Lapham's Quarterly posted:

Breakfast is the only meal of the day that I tend to view with the same kind of traditionalized reverence that most people associate with Lunch and Dinner. I like to eat breakfast alone, and almost never before noon; anybody with a terminally jangled lifestyle needs at least one psychic anchor every twenty-four hours, and mine is breakfast. In Hong Kong, Dallas or at home — and regardless of whether or not I have been to bed — breakfast is a personal ritual that can only be properly observed alone, and in a spirit of genuine excess. The food factor should always be massive: four Bloody Marys, two grapefruits, a pot of coffee, Rangoon crepes, a half-pound of either sausage, bacon, or corned beef hash with diced chiles, a Spanish omelette or eggs Benedict, a quart of milk, a chopped lemon for random seasoning, and something like a slice of Key lime pie, two margaritas, and six lines of the best cocaine for dessert... Right, and there should also be two or three newspapers, all mail and messages, a telephone, a notebook for planning the next twenty-four hours and at least one source of good music… All of which should be dealt with outside, in the warmth of a hot sun, and preferably stone naked.

Pretty sure pure Stevia is like 1/16, and most companies put in fillers to get it right around 1/2 like every other sweetener. Not anything to get emotional about.
