Have the rules change again?

Yeah. Haven't you heard?

It's now OK to vote for someone based on the color of his skin!

It’s gross because it’s bizarre and unseemly — somewhat akin to cannibalism (with which, I am sure, the PETA ghouls would have no problem.)

I’d rather they pushed for soy ice cream, which is actually really good, then us lactose intolerant and allergic population can have something that’s in ice cream shops AND peta can be as happy as they like about saving animals.

And, for anyone who’s wondering, lactose intolerant people wouldn’t be able to digest human milk, either - it would make them even sicker than anything else, as human milk has about twice as much lactose in it as cow’s milk (9% for humans as opposed to 4.6% for cow’s milk) and more lactose than any other mammal’s milk. In fact, given that peoples’ lactase production usually goes down as they go older, human milk as a replacement for cow milk could increase digestive problems in people.
