I don’t know. And, to be honest, I don’t spend enough time consuming Bos discourse to get a distinction like that right much more often than by chance.

Harrison Ford.

Well, that would certainly obviate the tissue rejection issues. But you might be higher in heavy metals and PCBs than you expect.

Bring back medlars. For this, a year not ripe until it was rotten, what befits is a thick jam of open-arses.

Some expectations management from the UC Davis end:

There are multiple diets ON the feedlot: high-fiber to start with, with the high calorie stuff coming in later. From the press release, “Based on this initial research, we’ve discovered that feeding cows with relatively small amounts of lemongrass, during the three-to-four month ‘fattening’ stages of production,…

You have to read claims carefully. They did not claim to have achieved a result for the entire lifetime of the cow. From their press release here: “As a result, we found that by adding 100 grams of dried lemongrass leaves to the cows’ daily feed, we were able to see a reduction of up to 33% on average of methane…

Will this special burger also reduce your own post-Whopper emissions?

Fondant, my ass.

Yeah. This is an advertising hook with an amusing gadget, not a practical solution to any real problem.

Probably, but the really hard-core types skip it with a sneered, “Why is it not occidentation?”

The original was supposed to have been, yes—”Chinese water snake”, but that could be Laticauda semifasciata, Enhydris chinensis, or Myrrophis chinensis. And 19th century Americans sometimes claimed to have made it in whole or part from rattlesnakes. But it very quickly became a generic term for mineral oil and…

The problem of recipes that appeal to The Algorithm but do not actually produce food is likely to get worse.

Typically, no. Odds are the bodies are going to have to be moved at some point, running the risk of the coins going astray—leaving the souls of the deceased on the banks of the river Styx. So, here’s a tip: either go medieval, and tuck the coins into the corpses’ mouths—or, if particularly concerned about infection,…

Great! How many 5 oz things are there in the package?

Lotta weaseling possible with “serving”, there. If it’s about three ounces (number from the American Heart Association), that’s $6.67/lb. Walmart sells frozen cod for about $5.99/lb. (QVC’s web site sells 60 ounces worth of cod for $26.39/lb, but presumably this is a nonsensical price to be deep-discounted from.)

Giant squid flavor liquorice. (It turns out giant squid use ammonium chloride for buoyancy, rendering their flesh unappetizing... to most.)

“Huh. First time I’ve ever seen sodium hypochlorite listed as the preferred cardiotonic. Well, get me an 18 gauge, and page Facilities.”

I’m not in a good position to lecture Jordan Peele about how much irony to include in his episodes. So, just my opinion: I think it’s a missed opportunity if Cain didn’t contract Covid-19 from a separated conjoined twin.
