It's a very good day for vegetarians, what with a horseburger scare and this sad article about shellfish fearing electric shocks so much they can learn to avoid hiding in their caves. "Crustaceans are invertebrates and people do not care about invertebrates." Oh my God, stop. Of course, you could just tape this New York Times piece about feces transplants to your refrigerator and never eat again: "Books on traditional Chinese medicine mention giving it to people by mouth to cure diarrhea in the fourth century; one book called it yellow soup." I am so sorry, everyone. I had to put that quote in there. For the shellfish. But I'm really sorry.
