I sure hope not, as it's the only type of sunscreen that really works for me.
Do you get burned when using other sunscreens?

Some years ago (and I mean decades) my teenage self read somewhere or heard someone talking of the unknown dangers of some gas being released by motherboards (think: silent killers).
That is usually flame retardant: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_retardant

There was no fat to remove from pasta sauce. Maybe they also figured out that sugar was addictive and added it everywhere to sell even more food with sugar?
You need to add sugar to contrast tomato acidity, it has nothing to do with sugar addiction. And it has been like this since forever, not only from the '70s. Source: even my grandmother added a pinch of sugar when cooking pasta sauce.

A very little bit of sugar that's in a pinch isn't any kind of a problem. Even a tbsp isn't that much. The problem is the massive amount they put in drinks of all types...and foods of all types. They even put it in bread for heck's sakes. In terms of taking the edge off of tomato sauce, shredded carrots works pretty well. I don't use sugar in any of my cooking, and no one has noticed.
Sugar in bread is so nasty to me. I can't stand to eat it, yet it's in almost every loaf on the shelf at a supermarket with 50 types.

This is one of the best reasons to make your own at home. Thankfully, bread machines aren't expensive.
Has it actually been proven that natural fats are bad for you? I always thought fat is healthier than sugar. Both sugar and fat are required part of healthy diet but I’d rather eat some pork sausage than ice cream or chocolate. It seems much healthier to me but I could be totally wrong and this is just some irrational belief I hold.
Watch out for that sausage, it's very likely to have nitrite salts in it, as well as surprisingly high amounts of sodium and sugar.
Sugar? Hmm I didn’t know there’s much sugar in sausages. I mostly eat family made sausages and I don’t think there’s much sugar.

Is salt unhealthy? I thought that is a myth too. I think salt is required part of healthy diet. In moderation of course. Sugar? Hmm I didn’t know there’s much sugar in sausages. I mostly eat family made sausages and I don’t think there’s much sugar.
Sugar routinely gets added to a lot of foodstuffs you wouldn't expect it in. But if you're primarily eating home-made sausages, you're probably not going to have any issues, they're mostly in processed and ready-made foods.

I don't follow any particular diet, but most of my meals are vegetables and a small amount meat / fish / eggs / chicken. I find it quite affordable. I typically avoid buying anything processed, those items rapidly ruin my budget.
"I typically avoid buying anything processed, those items rapidly ruin my budget." ... what processed foods are on average considerably cheaper. Spam, hot dogs, bacon, deli meats, and the list goes on and on. Where do you shop? I am highly skeptical of your claims.
