Strictly speaking, a chicken fetus is a proto-life form. But it doesn't matter in the end because I don't like eggs and wouldn't buy them in any case.

I'd consider it to be meat. It is flesh.
What vegetarian dishes do you like the most?

So why is it bad to have milk from other animals? I don't understand the vegan mentality.
Because it's tantamount to raping them? I mean, you wouldn't come up to some random woman and squeeze milk out of her ...., would you?

So you would be ok to eat cheese made from human milk so long as the milk was offered willingly.

What about various curries?
If they're well made (mine aren't). In a student house, a fellow inhabitant from India watched me unload a bag of groceries and seized upon a can of curry powder. He asked if I were going to scour out the bathtub and allowed me to sample the curry powders that he had made up--I had to admit that they were far superior.

Back on topic. We are going to see similar death rates as New York in all cities with a high population density. New York is standing out at the moment because it is one of the few densely populated cities that is attempting to report accurately. Other countries with poorer health care, mismanaged governments, and low education levels, will do far far worse in the months to come.

Bangladesh has one of the highest population densities in the world. Tens of thousands die each year without ever seeing a doctor so we have no idea how widespread .....-19 is in these communities. But this photo should give a clue. It was taken on Saturday at the funeral of a popular preacher. Over 50,00 people attended in spite of a government-mandated lockdown since 26th March. The police made no attempt to stop it.

You can buy good curries at Indian restaurants. Also, palak paneer (spinach with cheese, Indian-style).

Not really. Most of those curries have been toned down and "mass produced" for westerners who can't tell the difference between a good curry and a bad one. Some Indian restaurants are very good but not many.

Well, I generally enjoyed the Indian curries that I had--whether at Indian restaurants or at stores, where I bought them in microwave meal form. :)

This.

Ethnic food in the west is rarely authentic.
