This is a cogent synopsis and you have saved me some time. We are all at risk from pseudoexperts.

I have been telling senior patients who are losing their appetites to add a dash of Accent and they love it. Thank you for your umami zeal.

It seems like your politics are clouding your reporting on this and that you simply don’t like who they allowed on the panel. How do you explain the ingredients allowed in our foods that are banned in other countries? Maybe Mikhaila’s issues stem from all the unhealthy additives in our food supply? I have a friend who has so many digestive issues. She moved to Italy and can now eat anything she wants and feels so much better. What are your thoughts on that?

Hi Jen, thanks for reading. It seems like you might have missed the section for "Missing Nuance" where I pointed out a few of the aspects of Mikhaila's speech that I agree with. The Petersons are actually Canadian and Mikhaila's public bios state she was "born and raised" in Toronto. I'm not sure you can definitively link her health issues with an American food supply, although she now resides in the U.S. I'm also going to refrain from speculating about your friend and her digestive issues as I'm not familiar with her health history. I wish her the best with living abroad.
