>Yeast poops out alcohol anon.
It also consumes it.
>Both groups of ethanol-producing budding yeast, including S. cerevisiae and Dekkera bruxellensis, can also efficiently catabolize ethanol, and therefore, their corresponding lifestyle has been named as the “make-accumulate-consume (ethanol)” strategy (Thomson et al., 2005; Piskur et al., 2006; Rozpędowska et al., 2011).

Chinese people have been heavily targeted by American Big Nut marketers ever since 2008 when the domestic market collapsed. It was a huge success and China's demand went from nothing to #1 overnight.

>The Almond Board of California has spent about $1 million annually in recent years to promote the nuts in China, mostly through work with food manufacturers. To distinguish their product from the apricot kernels, they call it "American big xing ren."
>Last fall, the board started a $3.3 million campaign that includes its first ads aimed directly at Chinese consumers. Using the film actress Gao Yuan Yuan as a spokeswoman, the board has bought ads in women’s magazines and on bus shelters in several cities, with the tag line: "Enjoy American big almonds for a healthy and radiant life."
>Walnut and almond prices dropped in late 2008 and early 2009. But then Chinese importers jumped on the low prices and started buying, pushing prices back up.
>"The market shot back up in a year, which is absolutely unheard of," Mr. Blain said.
>Last year, according to Daniel J. Zedan, president of Nature’s Finest Foods, a nut brokerage based in Illinois, the global pecan supply was well above average levels. That should have depressed prices, but instead, Chinese demand has pushed prices to record levels.
>"We are now at the highest prices ever in the history of the pecan industry for pecan meats and yet we have one of the largest supplies ever," said Mr. Zedan. "All because of China."

>the matrix is a tranny movie ywnbaw
Yeah, not saying it's not a tranny movie. Just saying the idea "the redpill" comes from Total Recall is complete bullshit someone tried to force after the fact so they could say ACTCHUALLY to people making mention of the obvious real source which is the Matrix.

Red pill / blue pill is the Matrix. Total Recall never calls it "the red pill" and there is no blue pill alternative. Also in Total Recall it isn't even the pill that would wake him up because the guy trying to get him to take it is lying.
