No ****. I think palm oil was about the least of riverman's worries, wot? -- TL, Tim yeah, well, scoff if you will, but just the other morning, on the way to work, i saw a 9 year old kid carelessly stick a curious toe into a *small* puddle of palm oil. i was unable to prevent the tragedy. within four seconds of contact, the evil substance had literally melted the flesh from her bones. oh, god, will i ever forget the stunning, pure ....whiteness...of her lower leg bone. thank god the aussies have moved quickly to spare *their* children, and senior citizens! when will we, arrogant, slothful *******s that we are, act to prohibit the importation of this hellish liquid? contact "p.a.p.o", in care of bj conner's email addy, for details of how to help--won't you help? now, before it's too late... yfitons wayno Codswallop! When palm oil is outlawed only the gubmint will have palm oil! My wife, yes. My dog, maybe. My palm oil, NEVER! If they want my palm oil they'll have to slide it from my slippery dead hands!

Too bad, palm oil is quite tasty. "riverman" wrote in message ... Life in Congo-Part 5: What a long, strange trip. Cliped another excellant story by a brave man. There's another string somewhere here about honor and commitment. Some talk - some do. I stand in awe of your commitment to making the world a better place. Nah, its not like it seems. There are a lot of people around here who are actually pretty altruistic. I'm just an escapist trying to avoid the shackles of life in the US while I try to get some interesting experiences out of this life. :-) --riverman |

om... "leaves with palm oil " Palm oil is really dangerous, It's not allowed in many countrys now, Australian for one. "riverman" wrote in message ... Wow, I'd like to know more about that. Too bad, palm oil is quite tasty. I would like to see a reference for that too. My bull**** meter got up to 75% on that one and I got curious. All I can find is one environmental action group recommending a boycott of palm oil products that are produced in areas where the orangutan still lives (because people are clearing forests to plant oil palms), a few articles on import bans (to shore up local production), some articles on developing plantations (in Australia), and a reclassification of 'raw palm oil' in India due to an import tax loophole. Nothing about dangers in consumption but a lot of signs of a huge industry (who knew!). |

Nothing about dangers in consumption but a lot of signs of a huge industry (who knew!). Yeah, I'm pretty sure the bull**** meter is pegged on this. Palm oil manufacturing is what has traditionally kept the majority of western Congo alive through the past 20 years. The Peace Corp is actively working to replant overmature oil palms (they have a productive lifespan of about 10-15 years before they are too tall to climb) and its a major staple for about 800 million africans. If anything, there might be some first world Food and Drug conflicts with the sanitation or quality of the product, since it IS being produced in the heart of the jungle, and transported in all sorts of marginally sterile containers (lets not even go there). But as for its inherent danger...not a chance. --riverman --riverman |

IIRC, there was a big thing a few years ago about its cumulative contribution to high cholesterol through its prevalence in things like non-dairy coffee creamers. Beyond that, though, I've never heard anything about it being dangerous (and even that may be wrong.) ..02, Joe F. |
