What happened to the sound of the video? I can't hear a thing and in my computer this specific video won't load... cannot use anymore in my classes, what a pitty!

I have to call into question the comment made about "gray Cheetos". Do you have a source for this? If a product is made from corn meal, logic would dictate that it would be pale yellow...unless your corn meal had expired several years ago and was covered in mold, I do not see how it could be gray. Perhaps you meant to say that it is the bright orange coloration of the "cheese" powder that is a neutral or lighter color until dye was added?

They put humans in our food. They laugh because we are eating our own & don't even know it.

Why doesn’t red taste like spicy things?
