supposed to be a cult classic... i have my doubts but we will see

okay ngl i need to take a break from this book... pretty sure it's not gonna be for me but i will get to it at some point :(

"Cheese, oh to be sure, cheese is alive. Self-aware, actually, maybe not exactly the way we are, but still more alive than some clever simulation. We're at a pivot point here in the history of food science, a strange new form of life that was deliberately invented, like Doctor Frankenstein or something--"

"...Purdue University, in West Lafayette, Indiana, issued a press release clarifying that it 'has never been affiliated in any way with Purdue Pharma.'" PHEW!

"Like a mythical beast glimpsed fleetingly in the jungle, her presence would give her fellow human beings a start, either drawing them in or, almost as often, driving them away." I would NOT want to be the Queen, sounds like a normal encounter was almost impossible for her.

"Coincidentally, the way to scare off a belligerent corgi is the same as for a belligerent human being: a blast from the bagpipes." Unreal.
