Kansas Cattle


Its been a long time since my last post, and a lot has changed. First off I moved into a new apartment which took forever to get everything situated. Then I went on vacation to the east coast which allowed me to recharge my batteries. But now im back and im ready to create.

The piece below is about the numerous products made out of Kansas cattle (and or contain cattle parts in some way). Most people can only think of the common products ones like milk, cheese, beef, and leather. Here are a few products most people do not know:
cellophane wrap
tape
industrial oils
lubricants
shampoo
conditioner
high grade steel
textile sizing
whitener in refined sugar (made from bones yum)
medical sutures
glass
anti-aging creams (made from brains)
explosives (made from fats)
linoleum
imitation ivory
runway foam
