I once had a meal cooked by a Nigerian man and his daughter. We had Chicken and rice with peas in it. As we got near to the end of the meal I was supprised to hear 'crunch, crunch, crunch..' coming from his direction - I looked over to see him munching away on the bones and knawing out the marrow. I told him that we don't usually do that and he said that it was his source of calcium as he thought drinking milk was disgusting - different culture. I drink alot less milk than I did as a child.

I also think drinking milk is disgusting... the taste is absolutely repulsive. My mom says I stopped drinking it when I was about 6 months old. However, I do not chow down on bones and marrow.

Hi! My name is David and I'm looking forward to meeting some great people and participating in some interesting science discussions. Looks like a happenin' place.
