You really do have a lot of fast food places in the States, huh.
... define a lot? I'd probably agree, though.

Actually, idly thinking on it, I can't help but wonder if it's an artifact of the (lack of) transportation infrastructure. Somewhere that's more hub-based (bus stops, rail/subway, etc.) would naturally have less minimally-profitable areas for fast food (restaurants in general, really) to pop up. Not enough folks going through (wanting the fast bit) areas outside of the hub zone style areas to really maintain business. Place like the states, which is both less concentrated and more drive-y, would have a better foundation for supporting more fast food businesses, if perhaps with lower profit margins per individual shop (assuming cultural impetus towards eating out is equal, at least, which it almost certainly isn't). Something along those lines, anyway.

Wait so is that the whole lot that's made from secretions, or are they just added? Because that makes a difference to how weird that is.

I suspect it's normal yoghurt, but the source of the live cultures is the secretions.

Kind of gross.  Not going to lie.

  But isn't the whole concept of recycling waste product of our body and re-intaking it just as squarmy?

Oh. That's really not particularly bad :/

Yeah. It's weird, but I wasn't particularly disturbed by it.

It is pretty crazy as an ideological statement.

Otherwise, it is like, say, beer. You know that you are drinking something that is basically bacteria piss, right?

The weirdness isn't so much that it's made using vaginal secretions, it's that it's made using human by-products. I'd be just as weirded out by something made from human milk, although this is actually more comparable to human mucus.

Yeah I don't see the big deal really.  This way it even goes through a process which makes it food.
Yogurt's production in general is kinda gross...  As are hot dogs, and the pink goo fast-food burgers are made from.  All these things taste pretty good though.

Some woman beat her by making alcohol from vaginal yeast like 10+ years ago.

Can't seem to find the article at the moment, though.

I'd rather have food made from things I would theoretically be okay with in my mouth, rather than the shit the fast food industry normally uses.
