Not my trade, but:
I know someone who "makes homoeopathic remedies" for a well-known firm here in... well, nevermind. As most people realise, homoeopathic remedies are 100% distilled water or sugar pills soaked in same.

It should come as no surprise that all the arsing about that supposedly causes the remedy to become potent is frequently eliminated altogether. In other words, the tincture that is supposed to get super-diluted and succused gets chucked down the toilet, and they fill up the little bottles with plain old distilled water, at £5 - £20 a hit. Of course if his boss, who believes in this mumbo-jumbo, were to find out it would mean instant dismissal. But as he says, how would they prove it?

Resident Loon: try a holiday in Scotland. We eat kippers, black pudding, PLUS haggis, porridge, brose, Arbroath Smokies, deep-fried Mars Bars and a heap of other crap that tastes great as long as you don't know what's in it or how it's made. Also, check out the Stonner, a "fat-laden pork sausage, wrapped in a doner kebab, soaked in batter then deep fried. Creator Saei Sangag, has branded it 'the most dangerous supper in Scotland'. A £3 Stonner supper with a portion of chips has a gut-busting 1000 calories and 46g of fat."

Awesome.
