Having been to the Mayo Clinic this year and having been totally fucked over and given no real help, I’ll take neither at this point.
Isn’t it amazing how often the Miracle Whip people end up in the hospital emergency room whenever they have a serious medical problem.
Not being able to breath has a way of reorganizing your beliefs in a big damn hurry.
Don’t worry, they are back to their beliefs right after. Same with the anti abortion crowd.
Third building (biggest of all): Medical Insurance Administration.
Wait, is miracle whip a real thing?! I thought that was just an exaggerated joke
Of course it’s real. I grew up on that stuff and I’m not even American.
Gross. Miracle whip on pears… Wtf are they thinking…
Oh you sweet, dear, child…

You can never unsee some of these, so proceed with caution, and only after waiting a full hour after your last meal.
I like this comparison cause miracle whip sucks. Also, I’m going to Duke’s Mayo Clinic every time.
Kewpie mayo is where it’s at
unless you live in japan/china i cannot fathom regularly buying that, not only is it shipped halfway across the world, you have no clue what the ingredients and manufacturing is like, and to top it off it comes wrapped in a fucking plastic bag as if the shipping wasn’t terrible enough for the environment…
Especially when it’s mayo, something you can make with eggs, oil, some spices, and an immersion blender!
It’s fucking crazy how many people either prefer miracle whip or think it tastes the same as mayo. Like what kind of mayonnaise are you eating?
Might be a genetic thing. Like some people think avocados taste like dish soap. I think miracle whip tastes rotten.
Pretty sure that’s cilantro you’re thinking of
You’re right. I know somebody that is allergic to avocados, so I mixed those up.
I don’t think avocados have any flavor at all
They kind of taste like butter to me. It’s a mild flavour, but nice.
I suppose that explains the popularity of avocado toast
I find they have a faint botanical/vegetal perfume and a buttery flavor.
I live near Rochester, MN. This is hilarious. I’m sending it to many people I know
American Healthcare > Canadian Healthcare - 3 to 7 months for an MRI in Canada
I never understand this, the last time I needed an MRI I got it done within the same day. Canadian healthcare can have its downsides but when you need something you get it quick.
Having lived in both, Canadian healthcare >>> American healthcare. Walking out of a hospital after they saved your life with a bill of $0 is very nice in my experience.
The proceeding was a paid message brought to you by Atena.
Atena, the last time we paid out was 1998 and we fired the person who did that so it won’t happen again.
Hey, that’s how long the wait is at Mayo (unless you’re part of the Saudi or Jordanian royal families).
Why yes, I do have a meme for that too:
American Healthcare - if you need it, you can get it done. The amount of people who come to America to get simple procedures done vs joining the Canadian wait list is more than you think, and all of this information is based on a conversation with - A Canadian.
Canadian healthcare - I got surgery within the space of a month for something totally non-life-threatening and didn’t pay a cent other than my taxes, which cost less than American health insurance monthly. The amount of people I know who went to the US to get simple procedures done is exactly zero, and all this information is directly from - a Canadian.
Ah yes. If you need it, you can get it done. Except for the fact that you probably can’t afford it.
this information is based on a conversation with - A Canadian.
Hear that, folks? He talked to one, whole Canadian. That’s a wrap!
Yep! It’s a wrap!
That’s not the advertisement that you think it is. If you think about it for even a moment you’ll realize that it’s because we prioritize the wealthy in the US. Sure a rich person from Canada can come down and get a procedure in a moment’s notice but how many Americans have to leave the US to get the procedure themselves or even worse are never able to get it at all?
And as a Canadian I have never met anyone who went to the US for healthcare and as a middle class person I grew up with people poorer and richer than myself.
Yes, these stories are either outright lies, or are about rich people not being willing to wait their turn. Meanwhile, here I am drowning in medical debt, putting off getting procedures done, and trying to decide if I would rather just live with my dental problems, or risk getting kidnapped and murdered in Mexico, because they have so many Americans crossing the border to get dental work that they have not one, but multiple top tier dental towns.
