This is why I need to remember the based takes I had when I was young.

I always thought it was silly that we were told to recycle because, who could do anything with an old half-melted plastic bottle of coke? But I assumed the people who owned the companies knew something I didn't.

I still recycle because it's just the right thing to do, but... I wonder what other lies I accidentally called.

I'm sure you called many...

Start looking into the meat and dairy industries.

Did you know cholesterol is found almost exclusively in animal products?

Did you know cows have to be pregnant to produce milk, so dairy cows are artificially inseminated throughout most of their lives?
