Geithner will be promoting it! And when you have lived a happy
life eating this stuff, then - Soylent green!
On the plus side, a poo burger completely negates the need for the 5 second rule of dropped food.
I agree, Black Mamba, since most red wine gives me a headache. In fact, the logical choice of beverage to complement this tasty and expensive delicacy would have to be Kopi Luwak coffee.
I remember back in the 80's of human waste being made into jerky in Japan. I don't remember what tv show it was, but I remember watching it. Probably because both my mother and I were not impressed watching the scientists chewing on the stuff. I can't remember if they were adding soy or not.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the use of "night soil" and fecal contaminated water the reason for the salmonella outbreaks involving tomatoes and spinach?
As for a beverage accompaniment I would recommend Guinness, it always goes well with blarney and malarkey.
"night soil" provides plants with elemental nutrients; not the same thing as this load of bull dung advocates.
The site also provides a link to what I would consider an anti-hunting site. "Although toxic lead has been taken out of paint and gasoline, tons of lead are shot or left in the wild every year from hunting and fishing." I have read a few study conclusions on this and found most to be short of a few facts.

E coli lives in the gut too.
Apparently it's possible to kill bacteria with a dose of radiation.(Japan has lots of that)
I wonder how they separate(centrifuges?) the protein from the toxins that live bacteria produce as a culture and how much energy it takes?
Enzymes Oz. Same way your gut does it. Plus lots of energy.
I can see processing sewage for industrial use, like glue or surfactants. But food? The only place that would be workable is a space craft where nothing can be wasted. But... ew!
I've forgotten the name of the series, but on the Global TV series about the Bay Street investment firm one of the character's was trying to get the firm to invest in an inventor's process to make (safe) edible sh1t. Life imitates art (not including Star Trek where they were basically eating their molecularly-reassembled waste).
Seriously....keep in mind I would touch that thing.....it is not so much as a poop burger as a bacteria burger...in principle.
The idiots who eat steak tartar (raw beef) are as asinine as those who like their burgers "rare"...almost a surefire method for food poisoning....under the best of conditions.
Then there is the old question is a ruminant (eg cow) a herbavore or a bacteriavore. The cow ingests grass(cellulose--undigestable) and ferments it in her rumen, omasin and abomasin and then digests the resulting ruminant bacteria....in principle we could probably thrive on the the material that eventually goes into the cows reticulum (similar to our stomach).
Ruminants also have the bizarre ability to synthasize protein by ingesting/digesting urea(a chemical fertilzer). The protein fraction of a ruminants diet can also be provided by blending chicken crap into the feed.
Bismarch remarked that if the citizens witnessed laws being made they would react is negatively as watching sausage being made.
Or as Crocodile Dundee remarked...."Oh, ya can live on that sh*t but Oy prefer this...(opens can).
As far as the E Coli outbreaks.....washing produce is like washing you hands....common sense that is obviously not universal......
Meat replacement? I doubt it. The greenies seem to forget that there are still a lot of old hippies around like myself that have already been down that road. To the fellow old farts: Remember the soybean craze as a meat replacement about 30 years ago? They touted it the same way -- "it tastes identical to meat!" and soybean wassubstituted for absolutely EVERYTHING for a while. Truth is it was absolutely horrible no matter how they experimented with it -- it tasted like shit. So now they are feeding us real shit -- oh well, may as well cut to the chase, right?
Sorry greenies, but you will have to wait at least another generation before you can foist the scam again -- after old hippies like me are dead. Because we're going to expose it for what it is as long as we are alive. People like me were eating chocolate-covered ants, building wind turbines, living in communes, and hunting with primitive Natives in the tropical jungle, decades before Al Gore and David Suzuki descended from heaven to "show us the way" then ascended back to heaven in their shit-free air-conditioned jets.
At least the primitive Natives I was with -- who clothed themselves in bark from the "tuno" tree -- had the good sense to eat real natural meat from animals. And it was delicious.
Oh, and I almost forgot, the primitive Natives put poop to a better use: they dried it then burned it to keep mosquitos out of the hut. It burns like punk. Every hut had a stack of dried poop in the corner. I'd love to take Al Gore or David Suzuki to one of those villages -- I'll bet I can trick them into believing the poop is for eating, and it's an ancient Native custom for first-time visitors to eat some. I'd love to see them squirm while eating it and pretending to be "sensitive to the culture".
Why this blog? Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice
of an ordinary Canadian
yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

tip, but all are
appreciated!

Soylent brown?
Japanese McDonald's cashier:
"Would you like flies with that?"
You know this is just another weird Jap (can I say "Jap"?) pron thing, right?
Sure, but what type of wine do you serve with a gourmet crap sandwich. Red Cabernet? White Chardonnay? Green Scope?
Cabernet? Gross.

Makes tilapia seem not so bad, really puts it into prespective.

Just remember Tuesdays is Soylent Brown day.

Why not just liquify the stuff,administer it as an enema,and cut out the middle man,so to speak?
I said NO Pickles!!
Its all relative.
Back on the farm we would spread tons of manure out on the fields and plow it under.
The next year we would plant that field with sugar beets that was eventually processed into sugar.
Just think of the menu of high-end restaurants featuring celebrity burgers:
The Smart Ass - donations from the high IQ set and Nobel Laureates
Hollywood Meatballs - brought to you from LA's finest butts (forget the models, though, they don't eat enough to pass solids)
A1 Sports Select Patties- shot straight out the rears of professional athletes
Political Nuggets - both Conservatives and Liberals have perfected feeding us their crap for decades anyway.
Really, the possibilities are endless.

I'm surprised Kate was so restrained.
My headline would have been, "Eat **it, Dr. Suzuki."
As far as a soy accompaniment, you just hope it's not from China and made with human hair. (What's with these Oriental delicacies?)

McDonald's Big Crap?
Now that's what I call "organic"...Pure e coli through and through
Feed it to the elites and dumb trend following people who go to expensive shops to buy food at 4 times the price.
Coming up, green smoothies made with asparagus urine...
Giver the Dr. Fruitfly title I was thinking that might be a crow burger, but sh1t sandwich works too.
Either way, he's gotta take a bite.
The US military patented that dish during World War 2. It was called "sh*t-on-a-shingle" -- chipped beef and gravy on toast. Soldiers hated it.

batb, I am shocked to hear such language from a lady!
Two girls, one polystyrene container?
Hold the nuts. I'm allergic.
Soylent Brown is poopie!!!
Make mine a corn dog.

This sounds like a load of crap to me, right up there with the rhetoric from the CBC, Dr. Suzuki and the NDP.
Yeah gross but I'd still spit on Dave's shit burger if he came through the drive through I worked at.
I draw the line at cats.

One look at that burger and it was off for my morning constitutional.

And here I thought that tofu tasted like sh*t...

I can see the fast food franchises springing up next to municipal sewage treatment plants all over the developed world.
Alex would eat it, just to do his part to save the planet.
Seriously though, this is a joke, isn't it?
I'm 66, I ate shit all my life, I'm not going back to it!
That is one episode of Man V Food I will give a miss.
Fast Food Sushi...."Roll one up, homey"
@sasquatch: rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum, in that order. The abomasum is closest to the human type stomach.
Bought to you by your friendly, neighbourhood veterinarian.
Take a good look folks. It won't be long before food like this is banned.
