Vegetarian Water - For The Truly Ethical
Science 2.0 ^ | Jun 20 2014 | Hank Campbell

Posted on 06/21/2014 2:32:12 PM PDT by JimSEA

Did you know that when you drink water, you are not really being vegetarian?

I didn't either. It turns out that when you drink water, it could have microbes and other small stuff - well, I knew that part. What I did not know is that viruses and bacteria and such were considered animals to vegetarians. So even if you purify water by boiling it and killing the germs, you are still drinking dead animals.

What to do for truly ethical water drinkers? Now you have the solution, the Prestige Lifestraw.

I guess this is real - it's hard to say, I assume most medicinal and health products originating in Asia were created on a dare - but the Prestige LifeStraw says not only will it kill the animals in water, like bacteria, protozoan cysts and viruses, it will then remove them too. No more animals carcasses!

OJ will kill you.

Only if he's paying you $40K a month in alimony.

Fish live in water. Whenever we drink a glass of water, we are stealing from the fish. Truly ethical people refuse to drink water and have nothing to do with products that use water.

Baxter Black is a liberal sissy.

He does write good poetry, but what do you expect from a sissy?

I used hand sanitizer today, killed millions. Drank some water, killed millions more. Don’t feel guilty. Guess I’m a mass-murdering psychopath.

Well, if they mix their water from scratch that will eliminate any animal matter.

Don’t breathe the air either, it’s full of little critters (some of which will make you sick).

Also don’t lick your fingers as there are critters on your skin that you can’t wash off. Not to mention all the creepy crawlies inside of you.

Unless you have some sort of immune disorder, your body kills millions of microbes every day, just in keeping itself healthy.

Where I come from, we call that "soup". If we boil; it down, to thicken'er up, we call it "stew".

I know: late to the game, but we just got home.
