Is this cannabilism? Let me go check the definition of the word to see if hair qualifies.

The product, marketed as SmartGrow, is effective in keeping out weeds, and has even shown signs of increasing yield in crops like tomatoes . . .

This actually works. I collect it from my barber when I go in to get a haircut.

A side benefit is that it also keeps mice and moles from chewing down other plants before they emerge. They don't generally bother tomatos, but they wreak havoc on some vine crops such as squash and cucumbers.

Well, cannibalism is defined as the consumption of human flesh by another human, and flesh has several alternative definitions, some of which include hair.

Conclusion: Hair in pizza might be cannibalism.

I wonder if I can sell the stuff that accumulates in my shower drain.

That could be called a bathscum pizza? I guess the next thing will be a hairball and pinapple pizza?

From the original post: “it’s a common raw-material source for l-cysteine, an amino acid frequently used in baked goods such as pizza dough and bagels”

somewhat unappetizing I would say... I don’t know that it necessarily means making your own would do any good (is it in the flour used, or the other powdered ingredients, the yeast???).

No wonder we have to import it. I’m having a massive crop failure on my head.

When used in the soil around plants it releases a large amount of nitrogen which helps leaves grow. This would be a good use for it. Recycling instead of putting it in dumps.
As far as using it in pizza - what is this, Soylent Green?

Hair has value? I will ask for a “take out bag” for my hair next time I visit the barber. When they ask why, I’ll just say, “for the pizza”.

Wouldn’t this technically be hair derivatives, not actual hair? Do any of the alternate definitions of flesh include derivatives?

Good Lord, that’s just sick.

All this crap in the stores - imported “healthy” foods - ersatz is what it is. Screw that.
