Tie cheesewire around your neck and superglue your hands to your ears
then bungee off a bridge.

The cheesewire cuts your head off but you end up holding it in your hands because of the glue.

you are eating portions of cow that are too small.

The point of this was not to suggest you can't get 50 peoples worth of food off a cow. Of course you can. It was to say that people should eat MOAR cow and ALL OF the cow because it is LOVELY and now you've ruined it with your FACTS.

Haven't touched cod in over a decade for exactly that reason
