    • You are right: le bio c'est dangereux ! Il vaut mieux manger des légumes bourrés d'herbicides, de fongicides et d'insecticides et si possible conditionnés dans des boîtes de conserve tapissées de bisphénol A et de phtalates. Une bonne farine industrielle stockée dans des silos où l'on déverse des insectides est idéale pour les crêpes de la Chandeleur !
      At least with all these products, It is more pissed off with nature: pas d'insecte donc pas d'oiseau: burn it quiet and it will not be disturbed at the cemetery !
