Japanese Scientist Creates Meat Substitute From Sewage

Posted by samzenpus on from the I'm-going-to-need-another-slice-of-cheese dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Hold on to your hamburgers — Japanese scientist Mitsyuki Ikeda at the Environmental Assessment Center in Okayama has invented an artificial meat substitute made from human feces. The unseemly meal is made by extracting protein and lipids from 'sewage mud.' The lipids are then combined with a reaction enhancer and whipped into 'meat' in an exploder. Ikeda makes the 'meat' more palatable by adding things like soy protein."

    Wow.

    Starving masses in Africa eating our bourgeois American white-people feces.

    That would be a total PR shit storm.
