[ExI] Science had an article about hwat is kiling bees. virusesspread by miyrd.

[Keith Henson]

Milked goats. raised chickens for eggs.  Not concerned about bee grubs
in honey, though, as far as I know, bee beekeepers never extract brood
combs.

Milk and eggs are ways to make low-quality food into something humans like.

Flour has s certain allowed amount of insect parts.


Best wishes,

Keith
