Figures in the paintings – including animals – often stare at the viewer. Just as often, however, they look so intently into their computers that they see…

But after some time, the “food” in your mouth (and stuck on or between your teeth) ceases to be “food.” Who would eat it? If your toothbrush is used at that point, it is not really in contact with “meat” or “dairy” and thus, strictly speaking, you would not…
