A TASTY MORSEL-TO EAT OR NOT TO EAT-THAT IS THE QUESTION

A team of Japanese researchers lead by Mitsuyuki Ikeda of the Okayama Laboratory have created a way through which the biological process of consuming food then passing it can be cyclical converts it, to what, well might you ask..


 Yes, you guessed it, they’ve created a way to make edible “meat” out of human excrement.

This novel and very disgusting concept was discovered when he was asked to look at the various possible uses of sewage.

Instead of complaining over having a really terrible job, he discovered that it contains a great deal of protein due to the bacteria that populates it.

Sounds kind of gross, hey?

But it’s not like the “meat” is created by taking excrement and squishing it into a patty.


The process involves extracting the proteins from the sewage, combining them with a “reaction enhancer” (whatever that is), and putting it in an “exploder.”


Magical science-y stuff happens and VOILA! You have meat.

Once created, the “meat” is colored red and the flavor is enhanced with soy protein. The finished product is broken down as follows: 63% proteins, 25% carbs, 3% lipids, and 9% minerals.

This is all well and good, but how does it taste?

According to initial reports, it actually tastes like beef. Of course, the hardest part is getting people to eat it.

 According to Professor Ikeda, knowing that your food is made from human feces.” is the hardest part.

The ultimate goal, to convince people that eating a poop burger isn’t all bad.

If people will consider the environmental impact when making the decision between meat made from animals and meat made from poop they may have a market.

It costs 10-20 times the price of normal meat, though this is due to the cost of the research.

With luck (and a lot of luck is required) “poop burgers” and every variation of this bizarre creation will be priced the same as their natural counterparts.

The “meat” will also have fewer calories, but when you’re eating poop I’m sure that’s the least of your worries.

Will we see this on the weight watchers menu in future, these Japanese are very clever, don't you think?

I WILL ALWAYS LOOK AT MEAT IN A DIFFERENT WAY
