Jenny McCarthy Preaches New âGoatingâ Fad, Says To Eat Candy While Still In The Wrapper
Over the last 7 years, Jenny McCarthy has been able to convince millions of parents to stop vaccinating their children, almost single handedly creating the movement known to the media as anti-vaxxing. Now, McCarthy is working to convince parents that the only way for children to safely consume candy is while itâs still in the wrapper.A public service announcement released by McCarthy early Monday morning detailed the supposed health benefits of âGoatingâ, or eating still-wrapped candy, and the increased risk of autism inÂ children who eat chocolate and other candies that have been removed from its original wrapper.McCarthyÂ tells her 700,000 plus Facebook followers that years of research has gone into the theory, and that âGoatingâÂ will provide your body with an extra layer of protection from the harmful GMOâs and chemicals found in candy. She said the idea came to herÂ when the family dog got into a bag of fun-sized Milky Way candy bars.âI knew I was on to something, because chocolate kills dogs normally, but Muffy was fine, just some diarrhea. If eating fully wrapped candy bars can prevent my dog from overdosing on chocolate, it can certainly prevent any child from contracting autism.âSeveral respected authorities in the medical community have spoken out against Goating, and are warning the public that the practice of eating fully-wrapped candy carries a far greater health risk than just eating the candy bars normally. Experts are saying that in addition to the obvious choking concerns, the human digestive system is not designed to break down plastic wrappers.McCarthyÂ has saidÂ that she isÂ releasing a book about her studies onÂ âGoatingâ, to be released on October 21st. The book will be titled Goating: Now thatâs a Wrap,Â and will be releasedÂ just inÂ time for Halloween,Â when candy eating is at a yearly high for children and adults alike.
