Obviously I knew that eating too many potato chips is bad for you, but I didn’t know
that you could end up in the hospital.
Ever since Lil xan ended up in the hospital for eating too many hot Cheetos, it got me
wondering…what about other snack foods.
Do I even want to know?
Yes.
Yes I do.
Welcome back to inform overload where we ruin absolutely everything awesome.
Just kidding.
I’m charlotte dobre and On this channel we like to keep you informed about a variety
of things, the news, internet trends, and your favourite food items and restaurants.
Before I get into this video, tell me in the comments below what your favourite snack is.
And don’t forget to follow us on social media, our links are posted down below.
I mean I like to know about what I’m putting in my body, I’ve definitely become healthier
over the last few years and as a result, I feel a lot better about my body and also my
health.
The first step to a healthier lifestyle is cutting out food that’s bad for you, and
I’m going to help you do that by telling you about some of the most dangerous, popular
snack items you should stay away from.
We’ve rated these snacks on a scale of 1 to 5.
One being the least dangerous, 5 being the most.
Starting things off with hot dogs.
It is really easy to choke on a hot dog, especially if you’re a child.
Hot dogs cause about 17% of all the choking related deaths in children.
Besides being a choking hazard for young children, hot dogs are carcinogenic because of how much
processed meat they contain.
The processed meat increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 21 percent.
Eating too many hot dogs increases your risk of heart disease, diabetes as well as other
things.
And this also goes for healthy hot dogs, you know, the ones you find at the health food
store?
They are just as bad as regular hot dogs.
Hot dogs are rated a 2 out of 5 on the danger scale.
Next up, pretty much every type of potato chips that are made with a grease known as
olestra.
Thibgs like fat free lays, fat free doritos, fat free ruffles.
Olestra is still legal in the united states, it was approved in 1996 as a substitute for
cooking oil to make high fat foods fat free.
Problem is, olestra actually restricts the body’s ability to absorb vitamins.
It can cause cramps, bloating, gas and loose bowels.
Olestra is number 38 on time magazines worst inventions of all time.
If you really wanna have some potato chips, avoid fat free potato chips.
Opt for things like healthy crackers or pita chips, or even veggie chips.
I personally really like baked kale chips.
Moving right along to spicy chips like hot Cheetos and takis.
As you might know by now, the spices on hot Cheetos can increase stomach acidity, erode
your stomach lining and they have actually put several people in the hospital.
Eating too many Takis can cause ulcers and can also lead to cancer.
Apparently a small child once got throat cancer from eating too many takis.
Takis are rated a 3 out of 5 on the danger scale.
Next up we’ve got French fries.
Yes.
I know.
Im about to ruin French fries for you.
Eating too many French fries can lead to cancer.
The FDA discovered that French fries contain a carcinogen called acrylamide.
Fries can be even more dangerous if they are really crispy.
The crispier the fries, the more carcinogenic.
And yes sweet potato fries are also included.
Fries are rated a 2 out of 5.
Next up, gummy candies.
I was honestly the most upset to read about this one.
I love Swedish berries and sour patch kids so much.
If you’re picking up snacks for a movie night, sour patch kids are pretty much a necessity.
But there is so much dye in gummy candies that they can cause cancer.
They are also absolutely terrible for your teeth.
Gummy candies can cause cavities, and wear away at your enamel.
Also, apparently sugarless haribo gummy bears have caused a lot of people to become extremely
sick.
Just check out the amazon reviews of haribo gummy bears where people talk about the gastric
exorcism and exploding bowels that is caused when you eat sugarless haribo gumy bears.
Regular gummy candies are rated a 2 out of 5.
And fat free haribo gummies are rated a 3 out of 5. if you’re trying to cut gummy
candies out of your diet, heres a pro tip.
instead of buying gummy candies, try frozen cherries or mangoes.
Alright, moving along, you guys are gonna be upset about this one.
Pop rocks.
Pop rocks were a huge thing in the 70s and 80s.
They are a combination of sugar exposed to pressurized carbon dioxide.
If you consume pop rocks and coca cola at the same time can cause you to throw up pretty
much immediately.
Pop rocks are rated a 2 out of 5.
Ok, theres one snack food left that I wanna talk about, and its microwavable popcorn.
And this is actually rated one of the highest.
4 out of 5 on the danger scale.
The buttery microwave popcorn packets are also packed with chemicals and carcinogens.
One guy won 7.2 million dollars in a lawsuit because he claimed that microwaived popcorn
gave him lung cancer.
Instead of microwaveable popcorn, get some kernels and olive oil and make stovetop popcorn.
Toss on a bit of salt and Its honestly delicious and its wayyy better for you than those premade
packets.
its almost a guilt free snack.
Alright guys, that is all I have for you on that, its comment time.
