I don’t think people had good aquariums and reliable salamanders (broilers) before 1740, or even a keen eye for healthy specimens (foodie empathy?) for the most part. Looking in Consider The Lobster or one David Foster Wallace Anthology with it, Both Flesh And Not? Everything else is just deciding whether Maine is closer than certain boundaries of Israel, e.g. the living room carpet, lunching at 11 before the carts run out, etc. Then there’s whether or not to call mayonnaise ‘death sauce’ cf. Phil Agre. Arthropods v. Insects…are they coroutines or something?
