Oh, boy.
Cheese is a strange thing, too.
I mean, where does it come from, really?
I know there’s dairy in it, so it was once milk, right? Then what happens?
Do they just sort of let it sit there for a bit? I mean, that sounds disgusting.
I’m guessing they add salt, which is bizarre when you think about it. I mean, from a cow’s perspective, you’re basically stealing her milk and then just dropping “spicy little rocks” in it. Like, that’s pretty messed up. I bet, if she could speak English instead of just “cow-talk,” she’d be like, “what are you doing? It’s fine the way it is! Don’t mess with it!”
Imagine if a group of cows industrialized, squeezed your bladder until you urinated into a giant jug, then proceeded to dump a bunch of dirt into the jug, ultimately to drink the concoction out of a cardboard box with a cartoon human’s face on it.
Now, imagine they aged that dirt/urine combination until it became mold, and then proceeded to spread it on little pieces of bread paired with fine wines.
I’ll still eat cheese, and I think many of you will as well. But just think about it.
Until next time,
