Food for Thought..

Girl housemate (GH): You guys eat a lot!
Boy housemate (BH): No lah, we eat like usual!
Me: ...
GH: You guys eat like cows like that, the portion I eat is less than yours. Mostly vegetable like deer.
BH: But both eat grass.
GH: Where got? Cows eat grass and worms. Deer eat leaves only.
Me: Cow eat worms? Aren't they parasites?
GH: Yeah, in the end they are still eaten by the cows, right?
BH: Doesn't the deer eat grass too? Then the "worms" will enter its stomach mah.
GH: Deer where got eat grass? They eat leaves only. And don't have worms one.
BH: ...
Me: ...
- - - - - - - - Q & A - - - - - - - - 
1. Do cows eat "worms"?
2. What constitutes as eating?
3. Can one intentionally eat something so small? Does that mean we eat bacteria and viruses too?
4. Do we eat "worms"?
Lovely day for thought provoking, mind boggling, mentally challenging questions. Cheers!

yes, jack we do eat bacteria but not really viruses. Because bacteria are roaming everywhere. So there is no stopping them for being in your food, body, materials and so on. But the human stomach would kill any viruses or bacteria or anything. Because the stomach has a very strong acid base that destroy all that dangerous stuff. So no worries.
