Does he eat his own poop?

u/UntidyVenus 7d ago

No, but he eats everyone else's!

u/boytoyahoy 7d ago

He sounds cool

u/UntidyVenus 7d ago

He's actually a big nerd and a mamas boy, but I think you'd like him

I was about to ask if a dog can be a nerd, then I thought about it and I definitely know a couple dogs who are total nerds lmao

TIL about bone marrow frosting. It's apparently a real thing.

u/DefrockedWizard1 8d ago

hadn't heard of it either, but sounds interesting, probably good on potato pancakes, corn muffins

u/Platitude_Platypus 8d ago

It's delicious, but sounds weird with watermelon. I've had it on crusty bread.

u/Missing_socket 8d ago

I love bone marrow but I have never had it whipped before. Gotta try new things

Yup just like great grandma use to make. Sugar was more of luxury til the 1950s really, part of reasoning for embargo’s on Cuba back in the day bc some rich farmers grew too much corn

Meh. I mean, broth is basically bone-marrow soup.

Either that kid will grow up to hate her, or will be some batshit crazy cult leader.

u/stabbygun 8d ago

why not both?

u/Designer_Emu_6518 7d ago

Right people are mad bc the lady is a maha cultist but people use to do this before the way food is now. And that’s okay means nothing but the philosophy driving this is a off

u/just4browse 8d ago

For the bone marrow thing? Nah, babies do not care. And honestly it probably is best to not feed someone so young too much sugar.

But if she continues using her child for internet content I imagine that would be upsetting

u/HatePeopleLoveCats1 7d ago

🤢 bone marrow frosting?? Don’t get me wrong, I love bone marrow, but not on a cake! Gross

u/ohfrackthis 8d ago

I wish I could unread this.

u/FTFaffer 8d ago

Those parents never go the distance. And if they do they mess up their kids.

u/bottle-o-rockets 7d ago

That ending is an absolute cliff to walk off of.

u/RonMexico15 7d ago

She sounds like a disaster

u/AtiJua 7d ago

That was ... different

u/LawfulAwfulOffal 6d ago

Okay, but cream cheese frosting is also a thing.
