Two Girls, One Burger: Is A Poop Burger The Solution To Food Shortages?

I’ve heard of “shit-eating grins” before, but this new food item might cause shit-eating chagrins instead. A scientist has developed a “meat substitute” burger which he claims can alleviate food shortages around the world. It involves reusing and recycling! It’s sustainable and made from unlimited resources! It’s even high in protein! One problem: It’s shit. No, not the taste, I mean it’s actually made of feces.

Sorry, I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Japanese scientist Mitsuyuki Ikeda extracted protein from human poop, synthesized it with soya and steak sauce, and, as you’ll witness in the video below, says that it’s actually safe to eat, as the bacteria usually found in feces is killed by heat during the manufacturing process. The burger’s nutritional content has 63% protein, 25% carbohydrates, 3% fat. and 9% of varied minerals.

See, this would have made Two Girls, One Cup so much more enjoyable.

Would you eat a “meat substitute” burger made from human poop? It could save your fellow man! Sound off in our comments section below.

    Technology like this sits firmly in the “I’ll be glad someone thought this shit up when the inevitable zombie apocalypse comes to pass” category… but not until then.
