Like the Romans used to drink from lead cups. Something like that.

The wikipedia page doesn’t go super in depth, but it seems like somatic cell count is just a measurement of how much infectious schmutz is in milk? Why is this concerning?
how much blood and pus would you like in your diet?
I’ve had duck blood soup before. It’s pretty good.
As a vegetarian i have to agree. Duck blood and tofu hot pot is spectacularly delicious.
I’m not sure how blood is compatible with vegetarianism.
vegetarians still support animal slaughter and the torture involved therein, its a strange position to take.
Yes, of course, but I’ve always thought of vegetarians as people who don’t eat anything that comes from a dead animal.
its possible you’re thinking more of veganism? vegans don’t consume or purchase any animal products at all.
No, I’m not thinking of veganism.
This is just the mentality that I’ve heard from many vegetarians.
Sometimes, people just do the best they can.
“Crusader Culture” is the ideology of colonialism. The idea that my way is best, everyone should be doing my thing and anyone who isn’t is immoral - is toxic in every community.
Plenty of people have conditions that make protein extra important, and a certain percentage will struggle to get that from only non-animal sources. Plenty of people need or strongly benefit from a ketogenic diet (epileptics), which is significantly more difficult as a vegan. Also people are just different from each other, and find different things easy and difficult.
It’s so disapointing to see vegans ragging on people who are also trying to minimize the harm they do in the world.
the idea that the body of another is not yours to do with as you please is the opposite of a colonialist mindset.
It is impossible to exist in the world without causing suffering. To minimize the suffering that one causes is the moral imperative, not to belittle those with different capabilities or ideas about the world.
About as much as is left over after the pasteurization and filtration the milk I drink goes through I guess. Is there a safe threshold that all commercial milk rests above?
