Dogs also eat their own poop.
Why don’t they eat aborted babies as well. It’s just tissue, right?
dogs will eat their own vomit as well.........
Anyway, here is the script:
Laraine Newman and Gilda Radner were to play two pregnant women who run into each other at their college reunion.
Laraine: “By the way, are you planning to eat the placenta?”
Gilda: “You’re kidding! You mean the afterbirth?”
Laraine: “That’s right. Many mammals eat their own placenta. It’s nutritious, it’s 100 percent natural, and now that you’re going to have a family, you’ve got to watch your food budget more than ever. And there’s no cheaper meat than placenta.”
Gilda: But is there enough placenta to make a complete meal for my husband and myself?
Laraine: Not if your husband has a hearty appetite like mine. And that’s why you need Placenta Helper.
Gilda: Placenta Helper?
Laraine: That’s right. Placenta Helper lets you stretch your placenta into a tasty casserole. [Holds up a box of Placenta Helper.] Like Placenta Romanoff—a zesty blend of cheeses makes for the zingy sauce that Russian czars commanded at palace feasts. Or Placenta Oriental. An exotic mixture of oriental vegetables and exotic herbs and spices creates an exotic meal. Look, you can have placenta only once every nine months. Why not make a rare occasion, a rare occasion?
[CUT TO: Gilda’s kitchen. John Belushi, as her husband, has just finished his placenta casserole.]
John: Ummm. That was great. Let’s have Placenta Helper every night.
Gilda: Oh, honey!
She’s really a kitty cat. She’s got the same juju the Nigerian guy does. He turned himself into a goat to avoid capture after bank robberies. The Nigerian cops were on to his tricks though.
He's all gone. She ate him.
In many human cultures, mothers do (or did) eat the placenta.
With fava beans and a nice chianti?
LOL! I remember reading that story.
If we're going down that road, she could take advantage of the bounty that is her body -- polyps, her appendix, old teeth (crunchy!), possibly her own brain . . .
On a side note, the photo at the link is the most disgusting picture I've ever seen in my life.
