Japan Turn Human Feces to Food


Mitsuyuki Ikeda, scientists from Okayama Laboratory believes that a lot of good protein in human feces that can be utilized. To that end, he sought a way to extract it, mix it with steak sauce, and managed to make feces be a food.

One might wonder what is the reason to do that. But it turns out, the main reason is the demand of the government in Tokyo alone. For information, Tokyo is currently overwhelmed with sewer sludge, and the only way to cope than to throw into the sea is to eat the feces

When examined, Ikeda found that the feces was full of protein for many bacteria content in there. Once combined with a reaction enhancer and put it in a magical machine called 'exploder', finally successfully created artificial steak.

Human feces contains 63 percent protein, 25 percent carbohydrates, 3 percent fat-soluble vitamins, and 9 percent minerals. The resulting artificial steak was also the color red, so consumers will not be aware that he will eat is processed feces.

"From the first test, the people who have tried it said it tasted like beef," said Ikeda, as quoted from Digital Trends.

According to Ikeda and his colleagues, it is an perfect solution to reduce the amount of waste and emissions from the stomach. But unfortunately, there is no shortage of solutions offered Ikeda. The cost to produce the 'meat' made it 10 to 20 times more expensive than the price of real beef. Dare to try?
