Comment on High price of corn forcing farmers to feed candy to livestockparent

Comments

"As for the feed vs the taste, I literally put chicken shit on the ground my tomatoes are growing in and it makes them both larger and tastier. Biological transformation is a magical thing in many ways."

But you don't put chicken shit IN your tomatoes!

I wonder how it makes the cows feel after eating it, e.g do they know the difference or is it like when my dog eats something off the sidewalk when I'm not looking and then mopes around for the rest of the day 'cause she doesn't feel well.

He's putting the fertilizer in the tomatoes exactly as much as these guys are putting candy in cows. In both cases, the material is presented to the organism which then takes it in on its own.
