My first thought, like an idiot, "can cows eat flour?" Yeah mate, that's all they eat...

I was concerned in case the cow missed the flour bag warnings:

I guess I should be posting this on the cows community from where it was cross posted but anybody know whether those warnings are cow relevant?

I think Cow's exclusively eat raw grain so if it is a problem it's too late anyways.

Neither wild nor farmed cows eat exclusively gains. When they eat grass, they eat the entire grass rather than just the seeds. Farmed cows are fed quite a lot of legumes and a fermented "dish" called silage. They also eat meat opportunistically, as do all hoofbeasts.

Relevant if we don’t want another patient zero for some cow flu or something.

Yes, it's as dangerous for the cow as for the human. Because flour is expected to be cooked, it's not held to the same standard as foods expected to be eaten raw, and it's very possibly contaminated with pathogens. Cows have some protection against certain strains of e coli, but not salmonella.

Seems like a scene from my worst nightmare. A large, untrained animal near a collection of electric appliances, fire hazards, and sharp objects.

I have two great Danes and this is what it often feels like to cook with them around. Adorable, but my God the chaos...

Oh my god, I wonder if the cow pooped in there during the shoot. I've seen cows poop for what seemed like a minute straight.

I love how the cow/bull is desperate for the food, but carefully works around the human to get the treats.

Today I learned that cows (or maybe just this cow) like to eat flour.

There's no way he didn't burn the shit out of his arm putting that tray in the oven. There were definitely some shenanigans in the filming, but it's too cute for me to really care.
