My favourite is when someone told me that cows explode if they're not milked and they were being 100% serious
To be fair it's an exaggeration but based in truth - although of course it's a result of selectively breeding dairy cows and removing the calf, so as an argument against veganism it's somewhat self defeating
But yeah not milking a dairy cow will result in excessive pressure in the udders, which causes pain, infections, and sometimes the rupturing of the udder which i assume is where the 'explodes' comes from
