Re: Picking your nose.......

Whatever next!!!! I haven't read this article, but my gut feeling is that there may be a ring of truth to it. Lots of good flora (bacteria) inhabit various orifices of the body and are there to prevent nastier things getting in. Therefore the bogey thing may not be such a bad idea (a bit distasteful but certainly wouldn't do any harm) Human urine in the absence of an infection is sterile, so wouldn't do any harm either (theoretically) Stranded people have sometimes been forced to drink their own urine to survive, I wouldn't fancy it but sometimes needs must..... I'd rather not have to drink anybody elses though.
There are loads of interesting placenta recipies out there. Placentae contain loads of hormones and are rumoured to help combat such ailments as post-natal depression and replace vital vitamins after childbirth etc. Maybe that's why animals eat their own... Do they know something we don't???? I wouldn't particularly want to eat one, but do we ever really know what we are eating?? The amount of urine found on bar snacks such as nuts etc, from dirty beggers not washing their hands after the loo is amazing. I bet we've all inadvertantly ingested urine in one form or another.

I'm hungry now, just nipping out for nuts..
