Food of the future!

Postby emate007 » Mon, 25 Jul 2011 07:18

We all know overpopulation is one of the biggest challenges facing the world, thankfully Japanese scientists have been working hard to fix potential food shortages in the most logical way possible.
Thanks for everything Japan!!

I especially loved this quote:
The scientists hope to price it the same as actual meat, but at the moment the excrement steaks are ten to twenty times the price they should be thanks to the cost of research.

Brilliant work gentlemen! A food that nobody wants to eat and nobody can afford! The world is saved!

Oh, and EXCREMENT STEAK is a great term. Could make an intriguing gamertag.

If I ever eat shit, its because I dug my self a hole six feet under. God what a terrible, terrible idea.

Btw I'd rather starve or eat my neighbor before this "shit" happens.[/i]

Hmmm this is wrong on so many levels "BUT" if it could me synthesized super cheap, like pennies/lb, and is actually safe, it could help out drastically in places where there is huge famine for a short term. But i thibk it should stay as an emergency famine relief food and not really on general sale.

1st of all I don't even fully believe that this is real and not some super-brilliant joke. I mean, lines like 'It's being called the "poop burger"', 'The researchers color the poop meat red with food coloring', and 'Initial tests have people saying it even tastes like beef.' seriously had me freakin ROLLING. I'm not lying, I laughed so hard I literally cried, just typing those last 3 quotes.

It stops at poopburgers. Seriously. It's about drawing a line in the sand, dude...

Seriously, the article is full of amazing quotes!

But no, this isn't from the onion, I triple-checked the url. Definitely not satire. Japanese people are happily/unknowingly eating shit in some laboratory as we speak.

Wow. Out of curiosity I tried making my own version at home, and let me tell you it was horrible.

I think it's because I didn't have any red food colouring...

I get what they are saying. All it is is chemically extracted protein, just like faeces contains water. I imagine you could extract the water and purify it and it would be perfectly safe, but would you want to? sure as hell no.
