Japan scientist synthesizes meat from human feces
It's being called the "poop burger". Japanese scientists have found a way to create artificial meat from sewage containing human feces.
Somehow this feels like a Vonnegut plotline: population boom equals food shortage. Solution? Synthesize food from human waste matter. Absurd yes, but Japanese scientists have actually discovered a way to create edible steaks from human feces.
Mitsuyuki Ikeda, a researcher from the Okayama Laboratory, has developed steaks based on proteins from human excrement. Tokyo Sewage approached the scientist because of an overabundance of sewage mud. They asked him to explore the possible uses of the sewage and Ikeda found that the mud contained a great deal of protein because of all the bacteria.
The researchers then extracted those proteins, combined them with a reaction enhancer and put it in an exploder which created the artificial steak. The “meat” is 63% proteins, 25% carbohydrates, 3% lipids and 9% minerals. The researchers color the poop meat red with food coloring and enhance the flavor with soy protein. Initial tests have people saying it even tastes like beef.
Inhabitat notes that “the meatpacking industry causes 18 percent of our greenhouse gas emissions, mostly due to the release of methane from animals.” Livestock also consume huge amounts of resources and space in efforts to feed ourselves as well as the controversy over cruelty to animals. Ikeda’s recycled poop burger would reduce waste and emissions, not to mention obliterating Dante’s circle for gluttons.
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. Professor Ikeda understands the psychological barriers that need to be surmounted knowing that your food is made from human feces. They hope that once the research is complete, people will be able to overlook that ugly detail in favor of perks like environmental responsibility, cost and the fact that the meat will have fewer calories.
Waste not; want not.

I just wonder how far along they actually are with the product because I remember seeing a doco about this more than 10 years ago and the product looked like beef jerky, the Japanese fellow in a white lab coat saying it had to be re-hydrated.
You could re- hrdrate with number 1`s and then chow down on number 2`s
yuck! call me old fashon but my entire life I wouldn`t take any sh.t and I certainly am not going to eat it:eek:

I read this thread whilst sitting upon the throne. Gotta love the synchronicity, the gift that keeps on giving, sorta like last nights brocolli.
(Sorry, I could not stop the reply. Forgive me for the crudeness, Calz started it!)
EDIT
Perhaps this sandwich would be best served in the humor sub-forum.

I object. I am a glutton. I am proud to be a glutton. I can proudly fly the flag of gluttony and ...I can proudly state the virtues of gluttony.
And I'm now slated for obliteration?
Gluttony is so misunderstood. This is covert form of euthogenics, very likely intiated by the same hypcocrites that will tell you life is a feast.

This is not new technology .. what do you think Mc Donaldes patties are made from ?

Agreed...not new technology, but morphing into the human sector.
In the mid 70's, International Farm Systems Inc., located near St. Charles, Illinois, created the first 'bio dome' for pigs. Hundreds of pigs lived their entire lives within the dome, and their waste was processed, made into pellets, and 're-fed' to the pigs.
Although we know pigs eat stool, this just don't seem right.

I thought the Japanese were better than this....??? I'm sensing an insult here....
It kind of reminds me of Marie Antoinette's comment to the starving masses, "Let them eat cake!"
However, in this case the Japanese are saying, "Let them eat sh**".... ?
(Which reminds me of something I used to say to someone when I was pissed off: "Eat sh** and die...")
I remember a tv show where they made burgers out of roaches. They even went so far as to say that it was nutritional. Riiiiiiight..... I'll bet my bottom dollar that NO ONE bought into THAT either!

Maybe there is something in that statment,it could be the method the elite wish to use to reduce the world population
