A good thing about Walmart.

Post Reply New Topic

I buy only products that have zero trans fats and that means the ingredient label should not have
the word hydrogenated in it(because in the US the FDA allows 0.5 grams per serving of trans fat to be called zero).

Anyway very often I'm finding only the Walmart GV (General Value) brand are being made really
trans fat free. In some rare situation I found the GV brand was not good such as the GV coco mix but usually its as good as the major brands.

Good thing...
Hmm...
Well, personally, I think that paying employees poverty wages and firing them if they attempt to start a union is an excellent idea. It really promotes civil rights and gets America out of the facist tailspin we've been in since the 1980's.

whats the big deal about trans fats?

I find that them selling low-priced products is a good thing.

Trans fats are known for being very bad for you. There is actually some question on whether or not they should be banned in certain areas.

I wouldn't use Wal-Mart if you paid me.

It's full of low-quality goods and I like having things that don't fall apart the second the warranty expires.

The Wal-Mart nearby me is trash. Everyone's rude and I've actually seen three fights occur!

So, if I gave you a million or a billion dollars then you still wouldn't go?

I have bought stuff at Wal-mart before, heck, I am wearing a shirt I bought at wal-mart, and I have yet to have problems with them. If you perceive the products there as being too low in quality to buy then that may be your perception or preference. What I find to be low quality are the headphones I buy at Biglots, I still go there because despite being likely to break they also cost half as much as headphones at most other places and thus still end up being a good deal.

Just buy yourself some good headphones or earbuds.

A nice pair should set you back about $300.

300!! !! !! You are out of your mind! I would never spend $300!! I mean, look, the $2 headphones I like to get work fine but 300 dollars is a significant sum of money. I don't like earbuds though.

i saw a thing about this on tv a while ago. prob even a year ago now i dont rem exacly. they said trans fats MAY be bad, they r not sure. i thought it was ret*d they want to ban something that MAY be bad, and not something we KNOW is bad.
but if it is known to be bad, maybe i misinterpreted something.

Whatever suits you.

I'll stick to my Shure earbuds, I got them two years ago and they still work like a charm.

I think people are now very certain that trans fats are bad. There will of course be people skeptical of anything but for anyone health conscious, i would not advise trans fats. If you don't give a flip go right on ahead and eat trans fat foods until you collapse.

Right, 300 dollars is a significant sum to me that could be used on more important things, I mean, I could actually buy that but I am very sensitive to prices. Then again, I am a compulsive saver.

Trans Fat can cause Heart Attacks, Obesity, Diabetes and Infertility.

Might want to steer clear of the GV peanut butter at this time.
