Some hardcore carnivores have a hard time finding meat alternatives such as soy protein or tofu burgers to be palatable. But non-meat eaters may lose their appetite along with their carnivorous friends over this one – a meat alternative made from HUMAN EXCREMENT.

Hit the break for a video explaining the process!

A country that can market that nauseating processed fish paste known as “crab with a k” or surimi and make people accept it as crab is capable of anything.

Oh boy...I nearly spewed my coffee all over the keyboard when I saw this! The great Phil Hendrie (radio talk show/voice overs/cartoon voice/actor) did an entire bit on the Phil Hendrie show about 15 years ago in LA on KFI. It was one of his funniest shows...If you haven't heard Phil and his “guests” you should look him up...I still think he's doing a version of the show late nights as an alternative to Coast to Coast.

No thanks. I’m having a big, juicy porterhouse and a doublebock for dinner.

Does it hold together on the grill?

Probably be a little dry. But that's nothing that wrapping it with a strip of bacon won't cure. Mmm. Bacon.

On a strictly clinical level... hasn’t any stuff in feces already been found to be indigestable? Giving it another trip through the alimentary canal probably isn’t going to yield much more out of it?

Even the article itself is enough to make me physically ill. What about viruses and possible parasites? People could get really sick from this couldn’t they?

I can confidently say that if I had to choose between eating that and starving to death, no question in my mind, I pick starving to death. No question.

Depends upon whether the manufacturer had an upset stomach.

I won’t eat poop burgers. That is why I buried 2 bullets. If life comes to this, it ain’t worth living.

It’s a veggie burger supplemented with protein extracted from feces.
