Which is why I'm switching to eating babies.

You can just cook them away, right? Just like one cooks demons away from raw vegetables?

It's stories like this that make it hard not to play into the "smug vegetarian" stereotype…

@swizzard As long as it can't be transmitted via stock photo, we'll be OK.

The whole system is out of order. We need to eat less meat overall and make sure it is decently sourced.

I love how CNN's advice is to wash your hands, not y'know, stop buying factory farmed meat, or, I don't know, clean up the food supply. "Oh don't mind that silly little bit of staphylococcus… that's not some canary in the coalmine sign that your meat is full of feces and agony."
