Creating Meat Using Human Feces
You heard right. A Japanese scientist created meat using human feces (poop). There was an overabundance of sewage mud in Tokyo, so what do they do? RECYCLE IT!
Japanese scientist, Mitsuyuki Ikeda, a researcher from Okayama Laboratory is the founder of this new trend. The sewage mud contains a lot of protein due to the high bacteria content. These contain 63% proteins, 25% carbohydrates, 3% lipids and 9% minerals. Pretty benefitial right?
They are hoping to launch the meat out for mass consumption and the price for it in the market will be the same as the actual meat itself. In other words, we won't know if we're buying meat or poop.
Here's the link for the article.
Let's look at the benefits of this new creation:
- It could end world hunger..."could".
- We'll have more resources to count on.
- It's very healthy.
Now let's look at the bad side:
- It's gross.
- It's poop.
- It's human poop.
- It's gross...
Personally, I wouldn't try it out no matter how similar it looks to the real thing. Just knowing that I'm literally eating another person's excrement makes me gag. If this makes it to the market, I'm turning vegetarian...
But this is the way of the future I suppose.
What do you think about this new "meat"? Would you try it out?

Uhhhh... no.
I'm good. lol.
hell NO never would I try something so disgusting
by far that is THEE most ridonkilous and DISGUSTING thing japanese people has come up with.. that just offends me in a way too.. DISGUSTING!
as long as I didn't know what it was. I've eaten some strange things before. I expect I will again.
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - this is actually revolutionary for both space peoples and people in third world countries that are starving. I wouldn't knock it.
THIS IS FAKE, GODDAMNIT. Look it up on snopes or something before you blog about it.
@starcrossedloversdivine@xanga - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RRDLzxFXjY I still think it's a good solution. Some cultures drink their own piss because of short water supplies.
Guys, this isn't new. It's also FAKE!!!! http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2011/06/17/it-is-unspeakable
@Colorsofthenight@xanga - then more power to you.. let me take a shit real quick and you can eat it! ugh!
Old news indeed. Those of you guys who watched 2 girls 1 cup will know this.
If this isn't fake, I thought there was enough food in this world to feed everyone. It's just distributed improperly.
if it tasted like steak i'd eat it...bwahahahaha
@hollowhopes@xanga - This is true. I think there's enough food in the world for everyone to have 3500 calories a day. Also, I'm pretty sure this is totally fake. :/
Sounds nasty, but then again when you think about all of the garbage they put in the food we eat...there's not really much of a difference.
human centipede lololol
This is fake. Do your research before trying to stir up controversy.
@eatandrant@xanga - hahaha, it must given them ideas
@StatelessPilot@revelife - yeah, but they've thought about it and in Africa some do.
no ty
I think it's better than killing animals. (But I'll stick to tofu).
But I doubt that it'll help world hunger. We are already overproducing. People throw large amounts away, and get fat. Admittedly I don't know anything about japanese politics or plans for this product or the person himself, but inventing a new food will not lead to it being shipped to Africa and feeding everyone. If the scientist has a patent on it and the production is cheaper than meat production he and a few others will get rich, but that's probably all that happens.
If we want to stop world hunger we need to help other nations stopping their wars, support their economy and (thus) help them develop a better infrastructure, so that they acquire knowledge about sustainable techniques&economy, have the possibilty to apply it and feed themselves.
edit: ok I just read the comments & see it's fake :P. However I wan to add that factory farmed animals ane their meat aren't exatly "ungross" either.
Like there isn't all kinds of disgusting shit already IN the food we eat...
But, ignorance is bliss, right?
@starcrossedloversdivine@xanga - Yeah, but Boy Howdy it's hilarious!!
