"Hindus revere cows and slaughtering them is illegal in most of India. Cow dung is traditionally used as a fuel and disinfectant in villages, while cow urine and dung are often consumed in rituals to "purify" those on the bottom rungs of the Hindu caste system. "
A bit late on this, but I can't say this is NOT like the good ol' USA.
I can see how cow urine could taste better than Coca Cola. Coca Cola is relatively heavy in phosphoric acid, which comes from phosphorus, which can be mined from phosphorus mines. Which are made from bat guano. Yes, you're essentially drinking bat shit (hyperbole alert).
With that said, one can wiki cow urine, and see that cow urine has anti-bacterial properties. Phosphorus, on the other hand, fucks up your kidneys and bones in bad ways. All things considered, I'll be happy to try out cow urine as a "healthy alternative to Coca Cola and Pepsi".
Now about this caste shit, yeah, it's totally gay, and it's douchier to force people to eat cow shit and piss to purify the lower caste. Whoa there, boys and girls, capitalism has the same system, except we're not purifying the lower caste, we are poisoning them.
Go ahead and read several news items/blogs about people trying to live on just food stamps alone, and see the food that they can afford. Example: they cannot afford sliced American cheese, they have to buy "sandwich slices", which is another way of saying chemically created cheese slice substitutes. The FDA prevents companies that make them from putting "cheese" anywhere on the package, because they are not cheese. Hmm, heavily processed food never tasted so colon cancerous good!
but, i'm diverging from the spirit of this thread: not to be racist or anything, but indians totally suck at computer system design and administration.
There is more opportunity in this country than anywhere else in the world. Case in point, If an illegal immigrant worker can come here without speaking a word of english can show up inside this country and make enough money to support himself and his family, (which happens all the time) then quite frankly i really dont care if someone who's on the government dole doesn't eat a optimal diet. If they want to eat healthier, they could always get a job and buy the "good" food if they really want it.
Point being, slamming America is stupid. You earn your way here. More fundamentlaly, no-one owes you shit if you want to be a jacktard.
after reading the first part of your reply, xaanix, i was beginning to think you were trying to hijack this thread with political rhetoric. then after reading the second paragraph, it seems you missed the point completely.
nobody is slamming America. read my post carefully. if you want to discuss something involving the weirdness in the difference of other cultures, then i simply added a comparison to show that it's not as weird as it sounds.
soda ~ cow urine ghetto diet ~ pariahs' diet
my point: it's the same old shit, different skin color. hence, where the racism comes in. lol!
err, sorry, i was being humorous in my last statement. redact, and add:
my point: it's the same old shit, different culture (white, black, yellow, green, red, orange, rainbow).
but we may be on to something. think of all the money we can make if we market cow urine successfully to douchebag manhattan yuppies. they'll eat and drink anything "exotic", as long as it is written in the douchier NY Times.
