Reminds me of the opening scene of “The Stuff”. White goo erupting from the ground and dude decides to have a taste like it’s the most natural thing in the world.
Most of the Kennedys are scum. Joe was mobbed up, a bootlegger, and possibly a Nazi. The family had Rosemary turned into a vegetable. Teddy killed a young girl and tried to cover it up. JFK was a pill-popping womaniser who possibly had a hand in killing Marilyn Monroe. There are dozens of books on the Kennedys, each covering just another dimension of their terrible nature. The brain worm didn't break anything that wasn't broken long before.
Absolutely none of that has to do with the fact that heroin-addled senior citizen with holes in his brain is the one who is in charge of the department of health and human services, nor that you should try to keep the right one in mind when talking about which is which
Most of Jiangsu has a humid subtropical climate ... Seasonal changes are clear-cut, with temperatures at an average of −1 to 4 °C (30 to 39 °F) in January
Apparently four degrees is the bare minimum (maximum?) recommended temperature for storing pork, so you could be onto something.
More than 2,000 human remains were recovered. Diao's head and internal organs were boiled for several days.[9] Crucial organs including the heart, liver and spleen were never found. The forensics team was only able to identify the remains as belonging to a female through the analysis of body hair and muscle tissue.[8] Relatives were able to identify her through a mole on her right cheek.[1] A senior officer involved in the case described the killing as "really cruel". The officer added that pieces of flesh were dissected with high precision only achieved by an individual with great understanding of anatomy.[8] Police concluded that the murderer must have been a professional butcher or surgeon.
I grew up in China, so I have a bit of insight into this.
China industrialized and modernized very quickly, so a lot of habits older people (who would've been younger at that time) have are still from days of farming and subsistence living. Food standards are getting caught up, but not on the same level as the more western countries.
I can totally see someone in that situation finding a bag of meat, thinking 'someone accidentally left this behind. I guess I've scored dinner for tonight,' and taking it home. They don't have the same culture of thinking raw meat is inherently gross, so if it passes the smell test it's fine.
And honestly I kind of miss it. The amount of food waste produced back here in the States is depressing to me sometimes. Not that it isn't in service of better health for everyone, but it still stings to watch so much food just go into the garbage because some arbitrary date has passed.
Yeah as far as prepared food goes, the expiration dates are set because 1. Not only have the ingredients reached and are now passing their prime, but 2. Bacteria in the food has possibly multiplied to a level which makes eating the food risky. Even in refrigerated environments, bacteria multiplies, it’s just slower. It won’t be good forever just because it’s kept in the fridge (or even the freezer!)
it always makes me laugh when you nerds try to to correct someone who actually knows what they're talking about, and you just end up looking extra dumb.
I agree, and I think there's a broader conversation to have about the way that we just produce produce produce, without considering how much will spoil before it can be sold or used.
I know companies take into account the market when producing, but there is definitely a bias towards 'have too much instead of too little,' which is great for capital, but bad for the planet.
Plus, a lot of companies don't even try to offload their surplus in charitable ways... Just straight into the trash once the date has passed. Hell, a lot of companies have standing mandates to not even let the homeless sift through their trash. Honestly it's just evil.
I really want to know what the forbidden electial device was. A microwave oven? A dildo? A lawnmower? Something that is actually illegal to own period? It must've been something they used in the dormatory if Diao was punished as well, right? Or did the roomate just use a calculator in class and the school was like "welp, gotta punish Diao as well just in case she's been using a calculator too, better get the dormatory to do it for some reason!"
Here's my theories: the uni has a medical school. Someone wanted to practice on a "fresh" body not a cadaver that's been dead for weeks. Or, Diao crossed paths with some weirdo who hadn't struck before or since. What a strange story.
"Diao was described as "introverted and simple". She also did not enjoy interacting with people". I totally get that. However I'm not sure what it has to do with her becoming a murder victim.
I remember hearing about this case and how she was compared to the Black Dahlia. As terrible as Elizabeth Short's murder was, this case is next level...
Creepy, but im laughing at the thought of some dude finding a big ol bag of mystery meat, then taking it home to cook it up. WT to the F
What, you're too good for street meat? Park pork? No highway filet for you?

A guy finds a bag of meat just sitting outside and decides "yeah, I could eat this"?
Doesn't sound like it was even refrigerated! Serious health risk even if it had turned out to be pork.
Big Bobby Kennedy energy.
Poor actual Bobby Kennedy’s reputation being ruined by people not realizing this one is a Jr
The rot does appear to be genetic.
Neither brain worms nor heroin abuse are genetic and both are really what ate away at his mental status — literally for the worms

OK, I'm just gonna leave this as an r/woosh.
It said it was in the winter, maybe it was outside?
From the Jiangsu page:
Apparently four degrees is the bare minimum (maximum?) recommended temperature for storing pork, so you could be onto something.
I mean, when I was a kid, my grandfather used to hang carcasses in the barn to cool during the winter.
I'm still sketched about random bag o' meat, but yeah, I guess if it's cold enough out, and in some shade
i wonder if the guy was in severe poverty or something because wow. that's gnarly. and an extreme risk.
He was a sanitation worker so I can't imagine he was flush. Meat's expensive, man.
Bagged meat, my favorite
Essentially just sausage

Enjoy your permanent ban.

If her head was boiled, the skin would have fallen away from the face, wouldn't it? So, how did they identity her by a mole on her cheek?

Expiration dates are kind of the opposite of arbitrary but I get the sentiment
Yeah as far as prepared food goes, the expiration dates are set because 1. Not only have the ingredients reached and are now passing their prime, but 2.

Not true actually. The dates on food are about quality, not safety
Edit to add cause apparently you're all very gullible https://www.fsis.usda.gov/food-safety/safe-food-handling-and-preparation/food-safety-basics/food-product-dating
I work in the food industry, lol.
it always makes me laugh when you nerds try to to correct someone who actually knows what they're talking about, and you just end up looking extra dumb.
I think people can't differentiate between, expiry date and bet before dates.
Sorry for the down votes, but be happy you are right.
Dates on food specifically say "best by" date, not "expiration date" like they used to. So it is quality.
Safety comes in when it comes to storage and preparation guidelines.

Yes, especially for raw meat.
The was actually a crime in the 90s in China where something like this happened.
What do you mean?
I really want to know what the forbidden electial device was. A microwave oven? A dildo? A lawnmower? Something that is actually illegal to own period? It must've been something they used in the dormatory if Diao was punished as well, right?

Probably a hot plate. Most dorms have them explicitly banned (and have for a long time) due to fire/safety concerns.
Ooh! Yeah, that would make a lot of sense. Wikipedia and the source articles made it sound so mysterious.
Here's my theories: the uni has a medical school. Someone wanted to practice on a "fresh" body not a cadaver that's been dead for weeks. Or, Diao crossed paths with some weirdo who hadn't struck before or since. What a strange story.
"Diao was described as "introverted and simple". She also did not enjoy interacting with people". I totally get that. However I'm not sure what it has to do with her becoming a murder victim.
It means she was super vulnerable.
No no no no GAWD no
I remember hearing about this case and how she was compared to the Black Dahlia. As terrible as Elizabeth Short's murder was, this case is next level...
Wild that the police had to confirm they were human fingers, wtf else would they be from? Pretty sure everyone knows human fingers when they see em.
Isn't this the plot of the video game Zoophobia?
