Shitty meat

[Parts]

Japan scientist synthesizes meat from 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.

When I read the title, I thought that Parts was posting about anal sex.

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.

I didn't think they were much better to begin with tbh.

They probably invented this turd meat years ago themselves. If not, I can certainly imagine the McDonalds execs popping champagne right now .

 I would like to thank parts for posting this.  I now know there is at least one food in the world more heinous than oatmeal!

I have oats. Is oatmeal the same as porridge?

And no I will not try this new food.

 Yes, I think oatmeal = porridge, I was made to eat it as a child and the texture just gags me!

I was made to eat it too, but back then my mum used to put too much milk in it and add butter I think. I didn't like it like that. Now I get the sachets of it and microwave it and add sugar to it, much better.

 We had raisins in it, and I know some people add other fruits, or nuts, or brown sugar, or peanut butter. 
 None of that helps me, though.  The chewy/gluey texture remains, and I can't get past it.
