gollark: How do you know that you don't know other people who consumed soy‽ What if ALL consume soy?

gollark: I mean, something something... selection bias? There's probably a more specific word. But you're more likely to see ridiculous extreme things if you seek out people who go around talking about this lots.

gollark: Consume human milk, as nature intended.
