1. When you eat food, you'll have to shit 2. That shit is used to grow plants 3. Plants take out all the nutrients, proteins and other goodness from the shit while leaving out the rest 4. Cows eat the plants containing all those nutrients and such 5. Therefore in a convoluted way, we are already eating our own shit THE CIRCLE OF LIFE (or should it be, the circle of shit?) anyways all this japanese guy did was to find a shortcut from step 1 to 5. i see the concept is challenging and probably won't be accepted for a long time but who knows. maybe one day we'll have to rely on this shit | ||

Not with steaks though, it was all the nutrients, not just protein, and after processing it was a white powder that could be flavoured for broths and stuff. It was extremely high in loads of nutrients so they thought it would work in countries with starvation. Turns out even staving people wernt willing to eat it. Massive failure. I cant remember where i read about it, id try and find a link but im scared of what the google search might show me. | ||

Im pretty sure everyone who would eat this exactly feels the same way. But its just feelings , its just a instinct based reaction, because ur brain connects meat with poop and that makes it disgusting. But its not poop, not the slidest. Its meat. If it tastes like meat, feels like meat and doesnt cause negative effects on health, theres no valid argument against it. My rational mind understands everything you said, trust me, I get it. I'm still never going to eat that product. I don't have a choice that I might be composed of ex-poop molecules, but I can choose what I'm going to eat. Go watch that video again and tell me that stuff looked like hamburger meat. It looks like a cheap beef jerky or something. I have doubts that the stuff tastes like a real burger, but if you eat a poop burger some day and I'm wrong about that, come back to this thread and let me know. | ||

As for eating it, I wouldn't have any problems with it and I'm surprised that so many would. Rationally there's nothing wrong with it, and it's more like a poop butterfly that turns into a hamburger. | ||

Wouldn't we still have to eat a lot of protein rich foods, like meat from animals, or milk from cows, to make our crap full of the stuff we want more of? This seems more like a way to recycle crap, no to create new renewable food sources. | ||

Common tactic to get water in a desert but with digging a hole instead of piss. Not sure if trolling or not, to tired to care atm. | ||

Which is pretty much as direct as it can get without someone actually eating fecal matter in its, "fresh from the oven" form. In addition manure produced from animal waste is far more commonly used in agriculture than the variety created from human excrement, at least to my knowledge. | ||

If you have EVER DRANK WATER FROM THE TAP, know that is the same water people shit and urinate in, only cleaned and treated. Of course. I have seen videos on the discovery channel and the internet on how it's treated and from what I know in science and chemicals, I approve how they treat it. I drink my water knowledgeably, and accept that it was once shit. | ||
