Book description
Fact:
Chocolate contains the alkaloid theobromine, which in high doses can be
toxic to humans, and in even small amounts can kill dogs, parrots,
horses, and cats.
This means that despite its name, the Kit-Kat candy bar is not a
recommended snack for your kitty-cat. I wonder how many cats have died
because of this confusion.
Fact: The most germ-laden place on your toilet isn't the seat
or even the bowl:
It's the handle.
The solution: Don't flush. Let the next guy worry about it.
There are "just the facts"--and then there are just the
facts that will frighten the bejeezus out of you. And thanks to this
little gem of a bathroom book, you'll never look at the world the same
way again, without, er, dry heaving a little bit.
From the sneaky fish that can swim up our genitals to the e coli
bacteria lurking in the very water we drink, disturbing phenomena are
everywhere we turn. Educational, entertaining, and undeniably
horrifying, this book isn't guaranteed to help you, um, go to the
bathroom, but it's certain to make your time there more . . .
informed.
