USDA reclassifies frozen french fries as fresh vegetables
"Based on a little-noticed change to obscure federal rules, the USDA defines frozen french fries as 'fresh vegetables.' As bizarre as it may sound, a federal judge in Texas last week endorsed the USDA's rules in a court case, saying the term 'fresh vegetables' was ambiguous. The USDA quietly changed the regulations last year at the behest of the french fry industry... The french fry rule calls to mind the USDA's attempt in 1981 to classify ketchup and pickle relish as vegetables, an idea that was dropped amid public protests."

Well Frozen vegetable are fresher then what you get in the produce aisle. We had a question about that on a test and I got it wrong so I know thats got to be true. When you freeze something you slow down the rate of decay so when you cook frozen peas your cooking fresher peas then the ones you fight buy at the store

What's funny is at my highschool, there is a new law (either state or federal) stating that the schools can't sell fountain pop (soda) anymore. Apparently the reasoning was that pop caused health problems and by getting rid of it everything would be all better. The part that's hilarious is that our school still sells fries, burgers, candy, and sports drinks. Not only that, but there is a loophole and certain vending machines aren't included. The solution: we now have 8 vending machines.

We're not talking about English, we're talking about Newspeak.arrowhead wrote:"double" and "plus" are free morphemes, they dont need to be attached to anything. They are more lexical than a grammatical tool.
Adjectives end in -ful and adverbs end in -wise. Exceptions for adjectives are good, strong, big black, soft, and a few others; there are no exceptions to adverbs.Master Higgins wrote:yet to be modified as an adjective it would be "doubleplusgoodly" or maybe not in that particular orwell novel.

The point of Newspeak is to cut down on the vocabulary so instead of punishing those who crimethink or oldthink, the people cannot even conceive of crimethink or oldthink. This means keeping the language extremely simple, to ensure the people are not capable of complex thought. Because of this, the language is highly standardized. Perhaps spaced, unspaced, capitalized, and hypenized styles are accepted in an allusion to an Orwellian theme because of casualty, but in a society where the people speak in Newspeak for the reason of oppression, alternate styles would certainly not be accepted.Rand Linden wrote:I've seen it written with spaces, without spaces, with a variety of capitalizations and with hyphens between the individual elements... all appear to be widely accepted.
