This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Oh and the digestion is not the reason it tastes good. The animals just eat the good fruits, which have good beans, first.

Someone investing in them spending 7 years studying rainforests, just for them to come up with "serve them poop". If that isn't a case of writing the exam on the night before, I don't know what is.
