How are they doing? Are they okay? Any issues? Maybe someone should follow up.

    Schizandra

    Cracker-assed sounding name, what in the fuck are you doing to that child? White people shouldn’t be allowed to name their babies themselves. Got to run that shit by the committee first.

    Sure, get that baby started on lifelong heart problems, assuming they don’t just end up dying from eating raw liver and egg. I don’t understand where these sorts of fads come from. Is there really much money in convincing people that cooking food, something we’ve been doing so long our biology has literally evolved to prefer it, is somehow actually bad for us and raw food, meat in particular, is good?

    These people are so far removed from any sort of consequence of their actions that it sickens me, a shame they’re torturing a baby instead of causing themselves to suffer.

        I still don’t get why it has to be raw though. I feel like your customers dying from food borne illnesses would hurt your profits. It’s not like it would cost them extra to sell “Liver: for cooking” or anything like that. costs the company nothing, and probably protects them from lawsuits and things, and the food would actually be more effective and more healthy that way, so I just have no idea why they would insist on raw food. I guess I’m assuming that the people behind this stuff actually understand the science behind it and are being malicious, not dumbass idiots themselves who are True Believers in their own raw meat nonsense. I would figure a snake oil salesman wouldn’t actually think snake oil cures anything.

      I mean, the only time I’ve had the displeasure of interacting with a self-proclaimed carnivore, he tried very hard to convince me that meat production is really not connected to climate change at all. So it’s hard to think that these kinds of influencer-diets aren’t a psyop to make people more invested in animal products, at least to some degree. I’m sure there are some true believers as well, of course.

      This had less to do with raw/cooked food, and more just a general vibe of “meat is the real superfood (and I also really like the taste), therefore it can’t be bad for the environment!”.

        I mean, probably zero but even on like…a medically advised course of vaccinations like kids have, usually you gotta wait a bit for the kid to get an immune system to strengthen in the first place. That’s why they dont just give you every vaccine right after youre born and different ones are administered at different life stages. No matter what an infant who just got off breastfeeding absolutely cannot handle raw eggs. The rest is maybe not super dangerous if I assume, and I admit this is big leap, that this butter is pasteurized and the meat products cooked and properly stored, that is a wacky amount of far to pour into a creature with no motor skills or gut biome, all that fat has to jusr be sliding from one end to the other there which is gonna fuck up what little nutrition aside from fat this kid seems to be getting if they’re even real

    Huh, it’s a real article. I feel bad for the baby who is probably going to have all kinds of health problems. The parents should probably be fed to livestock though.
