Wild story: "f there’s anything that gets really out of whack, they can immediately tag the milk, and it doesn’t go to anything but cheese,” McAfee told me. “Because, you know, cheese is resistant to pathogens.”
Research has shown that raw cheese is not, in fact, resistant to pathogens.
“I’ve put a couple kids in the hospital, and they have been sick, but they recovered,” McAfee acknowledged(...) “But here’s the thing: I’m a pioneer..."
(the article then describes several kids from just one outbreak, that were barely saved in ICUs, and one still has lifelong disabilities)
Hey, do you want cheese that is 100% lab tested to definitively be made from contaminated milk!? There is just the place for you!

Alt: Majestic Deer with Huge Velvet Antlers. To be clear, this is probably a genetic event or even a breeding decision, but it illustrates the strange ways that antlers can grow. This poor buck, I'm assuming probably a white tailed deer, looks a bit overwhelmed to have a monstrous rack.
