I love carb balance tortillas, but check those nutrition facts, especially if you're making bean burritos with them.
Oh no apparently fiber has replaced protein as the internet food obsession and these influencers will overhype it so much without any warnings they’re gonna have people shitting their brains out.

I swear. People that understand why they need to double check their spam folder for important messages still flip the hell out when moderation messes up on a free website with no ads.
They can't afford Meta's sweatshop human moderators with run books that give the same result.
