DailyDirt: Weird Foods That Are Also Natural And Organic

from the urls-we-dig-up dept

In the strict chemical sense, it's actually not that easy to find inorganic foods (ie. foods that are not organic). But you might find some if you practice geophagy. Here are just some examples of foods made from all-natural ingredients.

• Coffee made from beans excreted by civets seems to be pretty popular. But the knock-off coffee made from chemically-digesting coffee beans (in lieu of the animal-digested beans) doesn't sound so bad, actually. [url]
• How about some artificial-meat made out of protein... extracted from human feces? When they're extracting the protein, maybe they should also extract the undigested pharmaceuticals while they're at it. [url]
• Eating marine mammals like dolphins might be a growing trend for poorer nations. Making dolphin hunting illegal, however, is probably not the right response. [url]
• Eating dirt is called "geophagy" -- a practice that expectant mothers sometimes engage in. Yum! pfft! [url]
• Speaking of mothers... A flavor of ice cream with a "yuck" factor twist: Baby Gaga ice cream is made from human breast milk. It's also probably the most expensive ice cream you've never wanted to taste. [url]

By the way, StumbleUpon can also recommend some good Techdirt articles, too.
