It's organic yogurt, so it hangs with the right crowd.  Maybe it's all the pot those organic farmers listen smoke.  And rock and roll.

See, now you're going to get some strange disease from the organic stuff.

I'm really anti-pasteurization.  Survival of the fittest cheese-eaters.  Hey, didn't the French invent that?!

Oh crap.

Pasteurisation is the process of heating liquids for the purpose of destroying bacteria, protozoa, molds, and yeasts. The process was named after its creator, French chemist and microbiologist Louis Pasteur. The first pasteurisation test was completed by Pasteur and Claude Bernard on April 20, 1862.

Unlike sterilization, pasteurisation is not intended to kill all micro-organisms (pathogenic) in the food or liquid. Instead, pasteurisation aims to achieve a "logarithmic reduction" in the number of viable organisms, reducing their number so they are unlikely to cause disease (assuming the pasteurisation product is refrigerated and consumed before its expiration date).

Great.  I'm going to die.

Adventures in The Philosophy of Yoghurt:

Platonic yoghurt - you know it's the best yoghurt ever, but all you can see in the fridge is its shadow

Darwinian yoghurt - if it crawls out of the fridge on its own, don't pick a fight with it

Hegelian yoghurt - can't decide between two flavours? Mix them together. Sorted.

Socratic yoghurt - are you sure you want it? Really sure?

Cartesian yoghurt - always knows exactly where it is. Or at least, it thinks it does.

Taoist yoghurt - has no labels

Utilitarian yoghurt - plenty for everyone!

If you're listening to the pot in your yoghurt, maybe it was more off than you thought.

Yeah, I'm blaming my inability to cut and paste on an infectious disease.  That's it.  I hope it's not one of those diseases that liquify your brain.

That's it, I'm afraid. Turns the brain to bad yogurt.

That's what I was thinking ... its gone bad from hanging around a bunch of dirty f*cking hippies.

Actually, if its non-pasturized, the acid in the yogurt that gives it that wonderful tartness will delay spoiling, and while that acid will be very bad for molds, it won't eliminate all bacteria, and of course its the one that are more robust that will have been reproducing. And except for the ph, its a wonderful nutrient soup.


I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
