I’m just so tired of misinformation, implying that one cheese that’s 100% milk is cheese, but another cheese made with that same cheese plus emulsifiers and preservatives is “THE CHEMICALS.” Call it processed, sure. But to imply you somehow have cheese that’s not chemicals… is just, fundamentally wrong.

In colloquial language, “chemicals” is fine IMO. It’s clear from context that it’s not H2O. Just like substance abuse is only about drugs, not cornography.

It’s not fine. “Chemicals” has been used as a blanket term for so long that your average guy thinks all chemicals are an issue, but has no idea what the fuck falls under truly dangerous chemicals.

I mean, pornography (I’m going to assume it was typo) it’s not a substance.
And substance means drugs. It’s one of the definitions. en.wiktionary.org/wiki/substance
