hindu beef allergy
on the four hour flight home the guy next to me mentioned he was a true hindi and he was allergic to beef. hindi's don't eat cows. so i was understandably curious. the first thing he did when he got here was go to mcdonald's. hamburger is made from ground ham, right? so he ate big macs every day for a week. woke up one morning with a bright red skin rash. doctors quarantined him when they found out he was newly arrived from a foreign country with a strange unidentifiable disease. i guess if you're going to have a horrible allergy, it might as well be something you're not going to eat any way.
