TIL (okay technically YIL)...

That there's more than just tomato ketchup.

That originally it was made out of fish sauce of sorts in 17th century China (once again, thank you China), and there's also a banana ketchup (not sure how I feel about this)... and also mushroom ketchup (thank you UK).

Toshiba used some special screws to cover my hard drive so that I had to break the cover in order to replace the hard drive.

TIL that you can actually touch baby birds without their mothers rejecting them, contrary to the myth that you can't.

TIL what is gaslighting and I felt it needs to be shared. Basically you need to check this out if you suspect that somebody is messing with you to make you doubt your mental health.

Did you know that breastfeeding for 2yrs (doesn't have to be consecutive) reduces the likelihood of you getting breast cancer, and if you breastfeed a girl, you reduce her chances as well.

 

 

Also...

 

Breast-milk is full of stem cells.

 

 

And...

 

Did you know that when you're pregnant, your body releases a hormone that causes your ligaments to loosen. This enables your hips to widen for the birth of the baby. What's REALLY interesting about this, is that when a pregnant woman squats, her hips expand up to TWO whole inches.

 

Squatting= good for pooping, good for delivering baby.

 

Who knew?!

TIL that Australians call Rice Crispies "Rice Bubbles". Also, they do not refrigerate their eggs in the store.
