5 scary foods you don't want to eat
- Raw stuff, like raw fish, crab, prawn, lobster, water chestnuts, and eggs. Toxins, fungus, mold, yeast, and bacteria -- all found in raw foods like these, and they can't be ingested properly by our digestive system, says HealthMad.
- Anything from the back of your fridge. If it's been pushed to the rear, your feeling should be fear. It's likely past its expiration date and working on a pretty good pattern of mold.
- Nano foods, which are genetically engineered or cloned foods, may be coming soon to a dinner table near you. Be on the lookout for these three: a brand of canola cooking oil called Canola Active Oil, a tea called Nanotea, and a chocolate diet shake called Nanoceuticals Slim Shake Chocolate.
- Escamoles (the eggs of the giant black Liometopum ant and apparently pretty tasty in tacos) and anything else from this list. Caution: Strong language used on this site.
- Soy. This might be a controversial one, but Play Life says soy food has never been proven safe and the site counts a few studies showing it can permanently damage your health. Want five compelling reasons to avoid this scary food? Click here.

"Final Remark:

Ok...why doesn't the article cite these studies then? Many of them sound fishy and while the dangers listed might be possible, many are not probable.

Escamoles are fantastic and not bad for you at all. As a matter of fact they are an excellent low fat source of protein.
