Link >> China make Fake Rice
A number of Chinese companies have been involved over the years in various scandals involving fake or tainted goods. Perhaps the most dangerous of all involve food, including the now famous 2008 milk scandal in which Chinese-made milk was found to contain the toxin melamine. The end result was 290,000 victims who fell ill and 11 suspected cases of death.
Now there are reports from Singapore media that China is mass producing fake rice, which can be potentially very dangerous.
Original Korean article from: Weekly Hong Kong
Fake Plastic Rice from China
According to the Korean-language “Weekly Hong Kong” (which many Vietnam websites are referencing as well), Singapore media claim that fake rice is being distributed in the Chinese town of Taiyuan, in Shaanxi province. This “rice” is a mix of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and plastic. It is formed by mixing the potatoes and sweet potatoes into the shape of rice grains, then adding industrial synthetic resins. Since the rice does not behave like normal rice, it stays hard even after it has been cooked. Such synthetic resins can also be very harmful if consumed.
A Chinese Restaurant Association official said that eating three bowls of this fake rice would be like eating one plastic bag. Due to the seriousness of the matter, he added that there would be an investigation of factories alleged to be producing the rice. Meanwhile, the low cost of the fake rice is allowing wholesalers to make large profits.

No they don’t take weeks to form
I can attest to that
I had no pimple on my forehead but end of the day at work after a really stressful day, 1 giant one popped out

Under conditions of extreme stress, pimples can form overnight.
I remember sitting for an extremely difficult exam at 5 pm one day. I couldn't do 3 out of the 4 long questions, and by the time the paper ended at 7 pm, I couldn't even eat dinner.
The very next morning, I got a massive outbreak.

We're just practicalI mean seriously you mean you want to start a family which is already added work and responsibility and on top of that we have to mother you because your health is the pits????

Yah it's not like in WoW where you can turn into a ghost and run to your body to be resurrected
or down a Health Potion or kenna health by a Priest/Paladin/Druid/Shaman -
I don’t want to be like that Vietnamese girl who married some grossly overweight dude on a 2k a month salary with a kid
I mean you can be happy and enjoy your life with a child
So why eat till you almost kill yourself and everyone suffers?
I think the answer is really logical.

plus if you suffer from such problems even before your kid is born, guess what, you've just made your offspring more predisposed to get these health problems. in other words you're starting them off with shitty genetics. -

some years ago there were lots of articles on vietnamese brides maThey interviewed this vietnamese girl on how happy a marriage is to this fat overweight SG man with a 2k salary
He already has diabetes and high blood and I dunno what problems
Just wait till he's older and see if she's still happy

high bodyfat levels in men = higher estrogen/lower testosterone levels.that's what brings about the man boobs.

she will soon waste her life being his nurse. if he cannot work because of his condition she will have to work to support him and the kid too. -
