Oh man, this reminds me of one of the worst Shark Tank pitches I ever saw. It was a stuffed elephant, that was supposed to be the Elephant in the Room, and the idea was that you put it out somewhere visible when you had a relationship problem you wanted to talk about with your partner.

A $60 stuffed animal for people who are too passive aggressive to say "Hey, can we talk about X?"

BREADS

Scientastic posted:

Difficulty in digesting mushrooms is due to natural variation in chitinase expression, which is not very high in Western Caucasians for similar reasons to lactase expression being low in South East Asian populations.

High chitinase levels and activity in digestive juices are observed in around 1 in 5 white European-descended people. So I guess you're one of the unlucky 80%. Assuming you're Caucasian. If not, you're astonishingly unlucky, because almost every other human genetic clade expresses pretty high levels of chitinase by comparison.

So what you’re saying is that I’ve won the genetic lottery by being able to digest both mushrooms and milk without issue.

If I need to drink someone under a table I dissolve them in acid, then neutralize the acid, then pour them into a Moomin mug, then crouch under the table, then drink them under the table.
