Sometimes the scale of industrially-produced food is difficult to grasp.
Approximately 29,819 pounds of the Fun Nuggets are impacted
The contaminated nuggets were made on Sept. 5
30,000 lbs is 1 day's worth of production?? Of 1 type of product? I'm not sure why, but I find that appalling.

Can confirm. I sat alone in the cafeteria in high school and read sci-fi and I was swimming in booty. The athletes and preppies would come up to me and say, "what's your secret bro?" And I wouldn't say anything; just smile and sit back and open my tattered, dog-eared copy of Dune.
Some would argue that reading science fiction restricts it.
The scene with the witches on the viewscreen gave me a lifelong fear of looking out of windows at night.
"Drummer, beat, and piper, blow,
Harper, strike, and soldier, go.
Free the flame and sear the grasses
Till the dawning Red Star passes."
I once put off a 5 minute task for so long, it was already at the 6 month replacement mark for when I should have originally done it! Efficient!
It took me a moment to get used to it, because I had the traditional upbringing with oatmeal = cinnamon, sugar, etc. But it's not that different from mashed potatoes, polenta, or rice. I already had the pilaf recipe that was a favorite "go with anything" side dish, so I tried that first and stuck with it.
Mine is in a safe deposit box in Budapest. You can never be too cautious.
