Feng Xiong Artificial food, as a long-existing notion (e.g. Isaac Asimov mentioned artificial veal in his novel The Gods Themselves), has been the center of debate for long. I had always held a negative view against artificial food and its technology. However, one of my friends, who studies chemistry at college, thought highly of it.

In 1747, author Hannah Glasse used the word to describe how to cook a piece of veal in her book The Art of Cookery, Made Plain and Easy.

An interesting observation is to recognize that the meaning remained the same even though the spelling differed from the original. In the late 1700’s the meaning…

My mom and I had been cleaning our house all day long, although I still felt full of energy.

My mom on the other…

In You are What You Speak, Guy Deutscher (2010), the author, explained how the languages influence people’s aspect, thoughts, and a society (p.215). In other words, people can make assumptions about a society from its language. Thus, people can make assumptions about the mysterious tribe found by anthropologists by examining its linguistic characteristics.

Pregnant pigs are kept in metal gestation crates barely bigger than they are. Baby cows raised for veal are tied up and confined in tiny stalls their entire short lives, which is usually 3 to 18 weeks.
