Kate Violette @kateviolette.com · 24/06/2025There are few things I dislike more than people using the word "clean" when referring to food ingredient lists. It gives me the eugenics-adjacent-wellness-grifter ick, and does not give me any information about what the fuck the ingredients actually are. 3277877
Jess the Gray @jessthegray.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Somehow skin care use of the term manages to be worse. 010
🦋Keith Hancock🦋 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 🇹🇭 🇻🇳 🇵🇭 @keithhancock.bsky.social · 25/06/2025You don’t like “clean” then come out with “the eugenics-adjacent-wellness-grifter ick”? What is this nonsense? 200
Smogget 🪓🍊 @smogget.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Whenever I gear "clean" in reference to food, I think of flavorless vegetables that are more water that fiber and take a long time to chew. 000
Witty N. Shitty @katesamuels.bsky.social · 25/06/2025When anyone says the “clean girl” aestheticmedia.tenor.comtwo men are standing next to each other in front of a painting on a wall .ALT: two men are standing next to each other in front of a painting on a wall . 000
Delightful @fkndelightful.bsky.social · 25/06/2025The same when referring to sexual health. So gross. 010
Justin Busch @cdfleblog.bsky.social · 24/06/2025THANK you. This has been driving me crazy for several years, without being able to precisely articulate why beyond a general sense of griftiness. 030
John J @trianglman.johnnytproductions.com · 24/06/2025Unless it's like, pre-washed greens or something, but then you still need to clean them again 070
Leslie 🐙 @saltxnw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025I went to a place, let's call it "Panero" (wink) and I asked if chicken in a certain salad had any sugars added. She said "it's clean" at least 4 times before looking it up in a huff and finding out there was indeed added sugar. 🥴 070
EmergPrepGal @emergprepgal.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Preach! Clean should only refer to getting the grit out of your lettuce, leeks, parsley and other stuff. 0100
Dani @dani-kml.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Calling foods "clean" implies there's "dirty" foods. No, there's just food. I hate it! 090
Annoyed Accountant @angrysmile.bsky.social · 24/06/2025It's a recent, new ick for me, but yes, same. 000
LionessElise @lionesselise.bsky.social · 24/06/2025"It gives me the eugenics-adjacent-wellness-grifter ick" is EXACTLY it. Thank you for saying it. 130
K. N. Mitchell @champagnecrone.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Thank you for so clearly articulating something that’s been neg-nagging me in my mind for ages! 000
FedUp27 @khw27fedup270.bsky.social · 25/06/2025I take it to mean that the ingredient list is short, and composed of only real food - not a huge paragraph of chemicals and franken-ingredients. The longer the ingredient list, the less clean the product. 260
Chris Johnson @cxj.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Agreed. I hate food labeling regulations which are effectively designed to obfuscate rather than inform. 000
JayK @jayk117.bsky.social · 24/06/2025I also love "all natural". Mother-fucking arsenic is all natural too doesn't mean I want it in my fucking food! 1100
thewhidxan.bsky.social @thewhidxan.bsky.social · 25/06/2025For some reason I always think of raccoons when someone mentions clean food 130
CRUSHED CRAVINGS @bigrally.bsky.social · 25/06/2025You must really despise clean air and clean water. 000
Pegster @pegslife.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Couldn’t agree more. It also sounds so judgy - if your food is clean, the food I eat that’s different is what? Are you really going to call my food “dirty”? 010
The Bystander @thebystander99.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Totally—it often goes hand-in-hand with talk of “detoxing” foods (this ingredient detoxifies your blood! On a cellular/molecular level!), which isn’t real. 1130
Brooklyn TRex @brooklyntrex.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Clean is the more natural 100% natural. And yes it’s super grifty. 000
Kate Violette @kateviolette.com · 24/06/2025like unless you have just pulled a carrot from the garden and are informing me how much dirt or not is on said carrot, I don't want to hear you talking about "clean" food 4756
