      That's why they did the study. It's apparently "the worst public health crisis since cholera".

          They're measuring it in terms of # of people per capita shitting themselves to death.

            Wow. I didn't know that. You're telling me now for the first time there's a public health crisis that people can solve at home by using their personal responsibility to be vegan?

              The study mentions that vegans end up drinking even more milk in their sleep than self-described milk drinkers.

      What the headline doesn't mention is that the average nocturnal milk drinker actually drinks closer to two gallons per night, but not everyone is an NMD so the average across the entire population ends up being a little under 1 gallon.
