He's not napping, he's dead. Take any cash he has in his wallet and any items you may want and then call the police. Also important to note this is a joke and I will not be held legally responsible for it.

GMO is the biggest topic I see brought up today. PERSONALLY, I believe GMO is the future. The problem associated with GMO from a SCIENTIFIC stand point are not negative with consumption; it is a POSSIBLE negativity with environment and business practices. People talk about how Monsanto wants to ruin the world with their death food. That most certainly is not the case. If you want to argue their business practices are horrible that's one thing, but from eating the food stand point study after study shows its safe. The question arises from releasing and removing common species of plants in the environment. Take a tomato for example. You have hundreds of different tomato species now. If a virus hits and wipes out 10-20% of those species, you still have a good amount of viable tomatoes left. This MAY NOT be the case in using a single, GMO tomato (is the argument). We could potentially wipe out entire lines of food crops through one disease that can spread rampant. This is just one example. However, with proper handling and upkeep I doubt this will be an issue, but it is ALWAYS good to look into the future. Bill Nye is a perfect example of this.

3.) Pink slime: well the name itself... horrible. We didn't do ourselves any services by calling the stuff that. The truth is, this is a good thing. Basically, what happens with the beef these days is everything is processed separately (not like 100 years ago). These items are added back into the meat to give them things like flavor, protein, texture and organoleptic additions. They make the overall product you are used to. The problem with this was how the media handled it. No one complains when you mix a bunch of things into a sausage and stick it in a natural casing (i.e. intestines). But take the media saying "pink slime" and all of a sudden its a HORRIBLE thing.

5.) The bologna question is a hard one to answer. The real question is how long has the bolgna been sitting out, how old is the bolgna to begin with, what temperature is it sitting at and for how long? There is ALOT. I would always gear towards safety and heres my thought: If its a risk, why try it? Everything may be fine, or you may end up blowing up a toilet for the next week. I prefer to stick it in a fridge!

6.) Cross contamination is a VERY real thing. BUT, cook your chicken and you will be fine!

7.) The McDonald's food question is a yes and no. Yes, McDonald's takes EVERY precaution possible to ensure its food is safe and because of this it limits the growth of organisms. Even if its not decaying by sight, it doesn't mean its safe to eat!

8.) Worst date: A girl asked my friend for me to take her to dinner. It was so bad I ended up calling him directly after to tell him I'm never taking her out again and she was boring and even though she was super hot, it wasn't worth it... while she was in the car with me still... while he was on Bluetooth. It made it... awkward.

9) ALWAYS use painters tape. The extra hour can really make the difference on you either spending 4 hours doing touch ups, or just being overall unhappy with your work!

10) I am an over-hand washer, but I don't use Antibiotic handsoap.

Yes. Dangerous people in dark alleys. Severe thunderstorms. A cute adorable kitten that is trying to coax you into tickling his belly. Its a trap. Its always a trap.

Yes. This is through the rigor of the meat. Stress can make the meat tougher in some cases or cause chemical reactions (like lactic acid build up) that can alter the end flavor. This is why some companies make a hefty profit selling "pre-rigor" meat.

With milk, most of the bacteria (Lactic acid bacteria) just drop the pH and make it sour. Its usually still OK to drink for a while after that, but its flavor is unacceptable so we throw it out. Too much and you may get the poos
