"Chemicals" in food. Literally every substance, every food and people are composed of them. The common usage has bastardized the meaning and latched on to the naturalistic fallacy. Snake venom is natural. Cyanide is natural. Arsenic and Uranium are natural. Botulinum toxin is natural. Something being naturally occurring does not automatically make it good for you just as something being made in a lab does not equate to being bad for you.
My least favorite is "it's processed"
I can count the ingredients on my hands, and the "processing" is like 4 steps max.
"Unga bunga me invent new process for food. It called cooking. Make less parasites in meat. Very good."
"Cooking bad, garg. We no want processed food."
