Pass the fried placenta please

[mac]

WTF is up with this? who the fuck would do that in the first place and an even better question would be why. On the extreme scale I give this a NINE point FIVE.

If you need your daily nutrients that bad, something must be wrong.

bravo, eBaum for making me vomit once more!

[Dorayaki]

I wonder if they eat the umbilical cord. Anyway, it looks like liver. Must be highly nutritious.

[Daikun]

Ask Tom Cruise.

[KRACKR]

i can't watch it, i got the barf-o-feeling just looking a the pic whilst reading the discription. I hope they weren't american, what a disgrace. Although, its a toss up for me comparing it to the rodent/spider/poo/etc........etc........etc.........etc videos. I'm unsure which one i would eat if i had to eat 1 of them. I'm completely boggled as to why people would eat the umbilical and placenta combo. That will make a great story for the child who that was attached to grows up. weird & wtf :squint:

[Dorayaki]

Don't female dogs and cats eat the placentas after giving birth? Why shouldn't humans do it too?

[ouch]

The placenta is packed with nutrients, and eaten by female mammals after giving birth to rejuvenate and also to keep predators away. However, there is no medical benifit for people these days to eat placenta.

What I find interesting is how disgusted people are even by the thought of eating placenta when it is in fact considered completely natural by every other mammal to do. We get way too caught up in ourselves I think, simply because something is different.

[Refuse]

Ask Tom Cruise.


That was a joke btw... he didn't really end up eating a placenta.

So, let's say you get a gf with children from another guy. Are you going to kill/eat them, too? More or less natural with some mammals...

[Epic Sandwich]

I looooooove me some placenta pudding.

[Riley]

They do but when our dog had puppies our vet said it is best that they don't let them eat it because it can upset their stomachs and that isn't good if they are nursing and sick at the same time. I can understand it serves a purpose for animals out in the wild but not pets they get the nutrition they need for their pet food.

[E B A U M S]

That was sick.

But I couldn't turn away..

[Griffin-Nary]

Ive heard about it before. Not really nice but theres worse I guess...

[Bubbles]

Actually in China placenta is made into a pill that women take after birth and during nursing, and in the US its really popular in the Mid-wife area for women to take thier placentas home and eat them, or if not eat them then plant them under a special tree or plant to give nutrients....The placenta is packed full of nutrients, has oxytocin wich helps the uterus contract and helps produce milk, and hormones that help are said to help with post partum depression.....When my brother and sister were born the midwife tried to get my parents to cook it up and feed it to everyone.....luckily we have two pretty roses instead :D

[CandyMandy]

Wow...how fake was that

[cokepepsisnappl]

Like that one person said, so are you going to start licking your ass? What about other people's asses?

[ThaPharCyde]

I hope they weren't american,

Nope...they were English

I've been there. Those damn mid-wives thinking they're all cool with their consumption of placenta's and a side of tartar sauce. It's a weird place let me tell you.




And the video...how sickening. I would liken it to cannibalism to be honest. Humans and human parts or organs are not to be eaten. Who cares if cats and dogs do it? Do I bark at strangers walking down the street? Do I take pleasure in licking my ballsack (well if I could)? Nope. Sore comparison. Oh well...good update either way. I liked it. :)

[stinger4life]

Like that one person said, so are you going to start licking your ass? What about other people's asses?

you mean that aint normal?

[I SNAKED YOU]

Not such the fact that the two are eating it, but then they give it out to people like WTF

[anothermoron]

Could this be a joke based on Tom Cruise's comment, but had the laugh track (if there ever was one) taken out?

[CaptNKILL]

I know this is "traditional" and "natural" but so are a lot of very very fucked up things that are seen as disgusting and even illegal in today's society.

I dont understand how this is any different than cannibalism (other than that it doesnt kill anyone). Seriously. If I lost my arm due to an accident, am I allowed to take it home and let my family eat it for dinner?

Or if I had 5 feet of my intestines removed to give my family nutrients...

Some cultures still eat people, some animals eat their babies... we're civilized people, I dont understand how this is even remotely "acceptable".

What the hell is going through the mothers mind? Just because it fell out of her crotch with her newborn child doesnt mean that isnt a chunk of her body that her family is eating.

I can see if its some strange religious ritual where one person eats a bite as part of a weird ass ceremony (still pretty disgusting)... but people sitting around and fucking cooking it up with onions and then chowing down at the dinner table... no. No fucking way. They are eating a hunk of someone because its there and they can. Call it canibalism and do it anyway, or dont do it at all... please dont make it out to be some sort of exception because it has nutrients.

[thegnome54]

Holy shit you guys are so retarded! First of all, there is nothing wrong with cannibalism that "doesn't kill anyone". If you eat someone's arm that fell off, so what? It's just like any other meat. Sure, you might not like the idea, but if someone else wants to then you have no say in it. All of you assholes that immediately jump to call for illegality need a reality check. I wouldn't eat it, because it came out of someone's vagina. The way things go these days, that's a surefire way to get a dozen or so STDs. The point is though, these people can do whatever the fuck they want with their placentas. Live and let live.

"I don't see how this is even accepted in today's society... I thought we were civilized blah blah blah I'm a fucking idiot who thinks it's my god given right to stop everyone from doing things I find disturbing..."

Sorry, I'm easily angered.

[lilcheeto1]

Um your eating somthing that fell out of her VAGINA do you know what was in her vagina a PENIS YOUR EATING A PENIS

shouldnt they feed it to the kid it came out with him.

Fuck yeah, Im gonna become friends with diabetics so when they get body parts amputated... I'LL BE THERE FOR THE BODY PARTS!

I hope i get a leg.

[RyogaVee]

I’m going to have to say I’m in favor of this.
While you naysayers are all up in arms about the “moral” issues. This is a VERY natural reaction that is done by nearly all mammals. If anything, it’s instinctual. Gross or not, it’s not our place to condemn someone for what they do with their own bodies. This is really no grosser than anything you and I have done. Im sure we have all picked a scab off and ate in out of curiosity. I’m sure we have all snorted some mucus and swallowed. And EVERY kid has eaten a bugger in their life time. Its just human tissue. If it comes from your own body there are no adverse affects. And for any of you not familiar with post partum depression, ANYTHING that can naturally help with that is a good thing.

Also, the comparison between this and human limbs and cannibalizing is unnecessary. Apples and oranges. Not even near the same league.

[ouch]

So, let's say you get a gf with children from another guy. Are you going to kill/eat them, too? More or less natural with some mammals...

This is what we call a false analogy my friend.

And you are taking what I was saying a bit wrong. I was just stating, for those who may not know, that female mammals eat their placenta for nutrition after the draining process of giving birth.

[Amunet]

Seriously... anyone who even thinks that eating human flesh is a good idea needs their fucking heads checked.
Planting it is still weird as hell but at least the people aren't cooking the crap up in butter and onions and testing how tender it is so they can gobble it down the fat asses.
That is the nastiest damn thing I've ever heard of and unfortunatly now seen.
Specially since it just plopped out of a woman's vagina.
Seriously.. would you want to eat the shit that comes out of there when a woman is on her period? No? Then why the hell would you wanna eat that.

The animal comparison is bullshit. Yeah animals do it b/c it's instinct. They do it b/c they don't want to attract predators.
Humans have no god damn reason to eat that shit.

*shakes head*

Whatever though... eat it up ya fucking nasty bastards.

[RyogaVee]

The animal comparison is bullshit. Yeah animals do it b/c it's instinct. They do it b/c they don't want to attract predators.

So, we are no animals?
let me guess, you are one of those religious zelots that think we are so much more than what we are. I bet you our cave men kin folk did the same. get over it. Its only gross to you because you cant understand it.
There is really NOTHING wrong with it. Its harmless. The meat we eat out of the store is 100 times worse. If you really have an issue with this then blame the doctors that allow a mother to take it home with them. a few years ago when I had a tooth removed I was not even allowed to touch it after it was out of my mouth. I was told it was aginst the law. So how the hell a mother gets to take home her placenta is beyond me. But... more power to any woman that decides to do this. its their right, i'll cast no stones in their directions.

[Refuse]

Its called "Ethnocentrism" void of any sort of relativism...

[Method]

I hope they weren't american, what a disgrace.

What the fuck does that supposed to mean you bastard.

thats what I was thinking too. like being from one country or another has anything to do with this.

Seriously... me and religous shouldn't even be in the same sentence.
And the meat in stores is 100x better. Why? B/c IT'S NOT HUMAN FLESH.
You're damn right I don't understand why anyone in their right mind would want to eat that shit. It's disgusting and there is absolutely NO REASON TO DO IT.
I don't get why alot of people do the stupid shit they do, not gonna stop me from voicing an opinion about them though.

As I said though... they can keep eating it all they want... and I'll still think they're freaks.

Not even worth getting worked up about. The guys full of shit- he'd gag if someone put a placenta in front of him at a dinner plate, not say "finally!! a sopping cluster of human blood vessels! God, and I've been forced to eat less quality animal meat for so long!mmmm"


Def one of the grossest vids out in a LOOONG time. for some reason them being british makes it slightly less surprising though.

[RyogaVee]

So thats your reasoning? Store meat is better because its not human. So all the sudden being human changes all the laws of if meat is safe to eat or not.
Do you know ANYTHING about the beef industry?
Can you even guess the number of steroids and harmless addatives are in this so called "100x Better" meat.
Man... you have already eaten the placenta of pigs and cows, you just dont know it yet (assuming you are not strictly vegie).

I'll agree with you, its kinda gross, but no more so than eating a slab of bacon. If you ever watch the slaughter process of pigs and cows you'll see what I mean.

Wow, grats on your 420th post.... yeah i'm baked. My brother eats 10 packs of sour skittles a day. I'll sell u a filet of chode w/side of testies for cheap soon. My feeling to this post is. Toilet water is water, but we don't drink it. SAme i feel as to eating ourselves. Just because its meat, we shouldn't eat us. Not sure really, but i think the #1 China Wok serves human here in my town, sure as fuck doesn't taste like chicken. :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh:

haha what exactly are your meat credentials? I know it's easy to say they pump shit into animal meat but how do YOU know and how can you prove that eating human flesh, because it has less additives, is better?
I'm just asking because I'm all about some hilariously absurb discussion.
I was banned last week for such inquisition actually..hmmm

[intelc4004]

Idiots.

Human meat is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from cow/chicken meat. You can't eat an animal that eat's meat. If you know anything about the food chain, plants grow from eating the purest form of energy (Sunlight oxygen to make glucose etc). Therefore animals that eat only plants and plant product get the 2nd highest form of consumable energy.

That's why it's widely accepted in our society to eat cows and chicken, because they provide the best form of consumable energy next in line from plants, and that they're the most accessible plant eating animals in the country. This is also an excellent reason why many people convert to vegetarianism.

Even though the damn placenta could have all the nutrients a person could want, it still doesn't justify eating another human body part. There are plenty of veggies out there or pills to take that gave you just as much nutrition (And more) than a friggin placenta, AND you can have a nice steak to eat after that.

That being said, those of you who want to use "nutrients" as an excuse to eat the placenta don't really care about the nutrients, you just get off the fact that you're eating a human body part.

So your argument is baseless. try agian.

[Provoker]

Yeah, make it illegal to eat placenta because it's full of evil nutrients. Oh and force everyone to wear a gask mask at all times because there's evil pollution in the sky.... and make it illegal for us to eat anything that came from a living organism, this includes plants.

Smoking one cigarette is probably worse than eating 10 healthy placentas in a row.

Actually, i don't wish to sound rude, but here in america our livestock is fed %100 grain food not made from the recycled ancestors for the new generation.. We have so much grain in america that we have enough for export. American grain is sold at a premium to countries like Britain, France, and China. Canada is big into grain too....buying and selling, growing of course in parts not frozen and bordering the U.S farms, most are coop deals.

-Leave Jesus out of this? That's like responding to "fuck" by saying "this isn't about sex". You're just looking for things to complain about.

-Leave God out of this, hypocrite.
-Human shit is feces, not feedback.

Isn't that what causes mad cow disease? (feeding cows other cows and what not)

Yes and no; mad cow disease was caused by low-quality cattle food. It wasn't the cannibalism part that caused it, but rather the way sick cows ( = cows of which the meat wasn't allowed to be sold to humans) were fed to the others. It caused a degeneration of proteins, which in turn caused all sorts of diseases like mad cow disease.

I can't help but agree one this one. Pretty much everything has been said already, but Im going to say some more. :). If people want to eat placenta, then fine. But to me, well, something about it just feels kind of wrong. I think it had a lot to do with how the placenta looked. If it had looked a lot less like a large steak, then I probably would have a different view. It just kind of creeped me out when she was slicing it on the worktop and it just looked like she was cutting up a large human steak, and then when it was fried... it looked just like fried human flesh. Which to me is a little too close to home. I love to cook, and taste food, so I've eaten a lot of funky stuff, but Im just not ready for placenta. And anyway, Im a vegetarian, so you guys hate me already.;)

[RyogaVee]

[JustinJJ]

I don't understand the problem here. You think it's gross eating a placenta? If you were to see how "acceptable" meat is processed, eating a placenta seems mouth-watering.

Um your eating somthing that fell out of her VAGINA do you know what was in her vagina a PENIS YOUR EATING A PENIS

shouldnt they feed it to the kid it came out with him.

You're kidding right? So if you go to the bathroom and in the process touch your penis and then you eat your food, you're eating you're own penis? LOL.

Guts don't look appetizing. But even in sanitized meat processing plants, things get messy. That's what happens when you cut open an animal.

What's the difference with a placenta? Nothing, except you get to see where your meat comes from. The idea that it's disgusting to eat it is absurd. Obviously the placenta will be cleaned, drained of excess fluid, and then heated to kill any bacteria. It's probably quite tasty and I bet if someone slipped some placenta in your meatloaf, you wouldn't even notice.

Just the fact that it's human meat disgusts some people. Well guess what, we're animals too. There's nothing barbaric about eating placenta anyways. If it grosses you out, well there's nothing wrong with that, but some of you act like it's a deadly sin to eat placenta.

[intelc4004]

You know what? Maybe you should open a business! Yeah! Call it HUMAN PLACENTA'S & MORE. You can ask all women that give birth to donate their placenta's to your store, where other human parts and organs are frozen, then stored to be sold to more sick bastards like you.
Have some respect for the human body. The world isn't running out of food for you to chase after human body parts for vitamins and minerals.

If you still persist that eating human body parts is a normal thing to do, then you can go upright fuck yourselves. You're sick people, end of story.

Respect for the human body??

It's a placenta for God's sake! If you don't eat it, it'll just be thrown away. This is not a moral issue, stop acting as if it is. It's the woman's choice to do what she wants with her placenta; if she wants to eat it, then so be it. If she makes a nice placenta feast for people to celebrate the birth of the child, then so be it. A woman eating a placenta has no effect on you at all. It's not as if you're being force fed placenta. Your placing a useless human organ on a pedestal, as if it's divine meat that cannot be touched.

The placenta has no use once it's out of the body. Why not eat it instead of wasting perfectly fine food? I don't get your reference to the world running out of food, it has nothing at all to do with the subject at hand.

Meat is meat, whether it comes from humans or not it doesn't make a difference. Human meat isn't "special" or "sacred". I think you're looking at this in black and white: if you eat placenta you like to eat humans or if you don't, you're normal. But I don't see what's wrong with eating your own placenta or sharing it with others. It's your own organ and it no longer has any use, so you should be able to eat it without being prosecuted.

[RyogaVee]

I think this is pretty much a 50/50 debate. half of us don't see a real problem with it and the other half keep coming up with ludicrous statements of religion, cannibalism and moral issues. I've said my peace and don't intend on changing anyone's minds. However, id like to reiterate another point I brought up before. The doctors allow the mother to bring it home with them. So the issue lies there. As I mentioned before, I had a tooth removed once and was told that it was state law that I was unable to touch it or take it with me, even though it was mine.
So, if someone can answer the question as to why the mother is permitted to take home her placenta maybe we can get to the bottom of this... actually, I can slightly answer it, primarily because the placenta is USED for a number of reasons. medicine, hair care products, and yes, FOOD!

[intelc4004]

I see what you're saying, but I guess all of use have to agree to disagree. We all base our thoughts about how we feel. Some of us feel it's wrong to eat a human organ, regardless if it's useless (I just removed my appendix, or I just removed my kidney, wanna throw it on the grill and call it a day?) and some of us think it's normal because it's just meat. I think it's better to just end this arguement before it gets any worse.

Indeed. The only thing all of us have in common-even the people saying that its not a big deal to eat a placenta- is that NONE of you would eat one regardless of how "right" it may be, how nasty processed hamburger meat is, how "nutritious" it may be or what not. So you can yammer on about how we all have the right to do it but it won't change the fact that 99.9% of the western world finds it utterly disgusting. So lets close this already

Cruise vows to eat baby's placenta

If Tom Cruise is looking for a recipe for eating his daughter's placenta, smoothies, stir fry and spaghetti are some recommendations.

Shock is still resonating through Hollywood over the actor's comment he will eat the placenta and umbilical cord of his newly-born daughter Suri.

Although seemingly bizarre, the practice of Placentophagy is actually not as uncommon as it sounds. Mammals have eaten the placentas of their offspring since time began. A number of mothers also believe the placenta has healing properties and can help with breast feeding and prevent post-natal depression.

The 43 year-old star told America's GQ magazine: "I'm going to eat the placenta. I thought that would be good. Very nutritious. I'm going to eat the cord and the placenta right there."

Lesley Maclennan from the New Zealand College of Midwives says the phenomenon is not common in New Zealand, but does happen. However it is usually the mother, not the father who partakes.

Ms Maclennan says in New Zealand, the placenta is usually buried or destroyed.

Dont speak for us... I would.
Its no different that when they give bull nut sacks and assholes to contestents on fear factor.

Ughhhh. Ok ok, maybe some of us would eat placenta if we were on a game show. jeez, whens this thread goingto finally die

I for one cannot believe that there are people here on eBaum’s actually defending people who eat human placenta.

There's plenty of people that oppose homosexuality, even though it doesn't violate any laws, does not harm people involuntarily, not to mention it has no effect on said people. Does that make it wrong?
Different people, different opinions. I for one cannot believe there are people that believe in tarot cards, horoscopes and self-healing, but it's not my place to judge different lifestyles.

Like others said, we can only agree to disagree.

[Dontdropthesoad]

Ya so Tom Cruise is going to eat the placenta, and his wife is the one that would need the nutrients if this were 1000 years ago.

wtf?

Every culture has different ideas on whats right and whats not. So many countries have beliefs that the placenta helps with many things after the birth of the baby. In the US its usually the more "natural" of us that cook or use the placenta. Im sure many many of you dont mind putting man-made substances in your healthy little bodies, arent opposed to smoking a little naturally grown herb, have no problem eating meat processed in a plant where mud, guts, urine and feces come in contact with that meat (if shit didnt touch your meat in the plant you wouldnt have E-Coli). But you all pass judgement on someone who chooses a ritual that has been around for centuries, that doesnt have anything to do with anyone but the mother, possibly the father, and any close family members that want to be a part of it. You little boys are grossed out by eating something out of a vagina.....yet you think a woman should have no problem ingesting something out of your penis....silly little close minded boys

I suppose you think rituals that involve drinking animal semen to make you a man are also ok. The food processing plants you're describing did exist... in the 1920's.. even then things weren't as bad as you describe them to be.

The government makes damn well sure that these privately owned meat companies are fully sanitized during production, or else it's their asses on the line. I believe those laws (meat inspection act, food and drug act) were made in the 20's. You also have tons of extremists out there that make sure everything is set along the line. If something like urine or mud finds its way into the food processing plant, those people will be there to shut the plant down.

[JustinJJ]

I suppose you think rituals that involve drinking animal semen to make you a man are also ok.

To be honest, I wouldn't care if someone cut off their own penis, dipped it in Tabasco sauce, ran around naked, and then ate it. As long as they do it in the privacy of their own home and it doesn't endanger anyone or any animal.

Obviously, doing such a thing is sick in most people's mind. I'd never want to witness such a disgusting event, but with that said, that person can do what they want with their life. It seems ridiculous to impose your beliefs on what is and isn't morally right onto another person.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is:
You should be able to do whatever weird ritual you want as long as it's within the constraints of the law.

I thought this argument was over anyway. What happened?

I probably didn't help stop it either, but I'm not trying to argue.

Is everyone aware of the fact that lots of products we eat very often (peanut butter, tomato sauce) are filled to the top with insect parts? For every 1lb of peanut butter, there's about 130 insect parts present.
Chocolate, wheat, corn... 1lb of each can contain an average of 40 insect eggs or 3 whole maggots. Canned mushrooms contain up to 30 maggots for every lb.

Im sorry, I must be mistaken about all those people getting E-Coli from tainted meat....E-Coli is a bacteria living in the intestines, every living animal has it, now, unless a person is rubbing thier own shit into a hamburger, it has to come from somewhere, my guess, the processing plant.

Come on, you need to present more proof than a user question with one answer and a site about how nutritious insects are ;) Besides, even if there are "bug parts" in chocolate, wheat or peanut butter, they'll be so small that even on a microscopic level they're hard to spot. Even IF they exist, they're so incredibly small that the overall product is not affected, and neither is the consumer. For instance check out ketchup. Did you know if you were to put it under a microscope, you'd find all these little buglike creatures crawling about and whatnot.

People have been eating chocolate for hundreds of years, chocolate is an artificial food made by man. Placenta is made by the body. I'm not bothered by the fact that eating just any placenta is weird- in fact I'm open to eating all sorts of weird shit like frog legs, cow brain- but eating a human body part is just wrong to me. You can take it any way you wish, but that's just the way I am and I don't plan on changing anytime soon.

Sure you'll find E-Coli.. if you go out and buy the cheapest meat you can find. There's also a thing called "Cooking" the food. If you actually cook the hamburger, regardless if the shit has E-Coli in it, nothing will happen to the consumer. If it's red on the inside and you bought cheap meat, don't point fingers at the dirty processing plant that made it, point the finger at yourselves.

Haha, I don't care if 1lb of peanut butter is 11 ounces of insect parts- that doesn't make eating placenta more appetizing! And we all know you wouldn't eat a placenta any day of ever.
None of you fags would. Sure everyone has the "right" to- has anybody YET ARGUED that anybody DOESN"T have that right? NO.
This thread is divided between people, who like almost everyone in western culture, find this vid gross (thats why its on ebaumd geniuses) and 2 or 3 fags who are trying to either play devils ad or be ultra sensitive and open minded in saying that we shouldn't judge people. waaaah.

Good point. You see, why should we believe that abortion is a right, and gay marriage, and the right to various other things if we don't have/do them?

Simple: We believe that there is no reason, even if we don't do it, to limit it. It doesn't make us "posers" or anything like that.

You made me come out of a long, LONG lurk for this. And when it happens, someone has said something very, very idiotic. I personally have absoleutely no problem with this, at all. And in no way was I like "EEEWWW!!!" at the video.

Oh I'm sorry, for a second there, I was under the impression it takes more than one person to have a discussion. Good thing I have you to remind me the pro-placenta people are the only ones adding comments and that they're violating a discussion board's code of conduct by discussing things.

I really don't think it's that disgusting. To me it seems like people are overreacting over this. You're right, I probably wouldn't eat a placenta. However, that's not the point I'm trying to make. What I'm trying to say is that people are overreacting. I don't see how this video is as disgusting as people are making it out to be. I just don't see how a placenta differs so much from "normal" meat. Is it because it's human meat? Or is it because it's a placenta?

Who cares what other people eat? In the end it doesn't matter; it comes out as shit no matter what you eat.

Also, I don't see why someone would be a fag because they think eating placenta is fine.

[intelc4004]

I don't think the point is whether or not the video is disgusting, the question asked here is, would you think its GROSS if you were to eat a human organ? Let's just forget that it's a placenta. Would you eat human shit, drink human urine, chew on chunks of human brain just because they're known to be abundant with nutrients?
I don't find eating any placenta sick, it's the fact that the damn thing is coming from a human. And no don't throw that "Human body is holy crap", I can give a shit about the human body being holy or not, it's a feeling that I think people on the more sane side of humanity inherit, when you feel something is sickening by using your instinct.

I will still insist that if any person would like to eat their own placenta after birth, they are mentally ill. We all know here, and no bullshitting, that these people aren't eating it for the nutrients, they eat it because it's a human organ. Fuck it, why can't they go eat a cow placenta instead? I see all these people here talking about "Let's not waste the placenta! god forbid they throw away the placenta it's packed with nutrients!" but they aren't doing SHIT about the cow placenta's being thrown out during meat production.

[RyogaVee]

its not tossed out, its actually used in a number of dishes and can be bought by anyone. just ask a catleman.

Yes, I would find it gross to drink human shit, urine, and chunks of brain. However, I wouldn't find it gross because it's human, I'd find it gross because it's shit, urine, and brain chunks. I don't see how someone can be mentally ill for eating their own placenta. It's not like they cut off an arm and ate it; the placenta is useless. And I agree with you, the main reason why people eat the placenta isn't because of the nutrients, but instead, they eat it because it's kind of interesting. How often can you say "I ate my placenta"?

I think most people would eat their placenta not for nutrients, not because they are mentally unstable, not because they have a fetish for human flesh, but because it's interesting and something different. Basically, I believe most people would eat it out of curiosity and so they can say "I ate my placenta". Is there anything wrong with that or does it make them mentally ill? Of course not, if anything it's just curiosity.

You don't find this sickening by your instinct. You find this sickening by the standards of Western society. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it's not your instinct.

Basically, the problem here lies in the fact that the meat is human meat. But if the donor of the meat (the mother), approves of eating it, what exactly is the problem? Just because she ate her placenta, doesn't mean she'll go around cutting people's heads off and eating their brains.

How exactly is a placenta any different than shit or piss? Granted, it is an organ, but it is still expelled from the body when the body has no use for it. You end up with a pile of expelled bloodvessals- hardly differentthan a pile of shit. Therefore I don't think your argument makes any sense. Couldn't people eat shit because they thought it was interesting and different?curiosity?

Again, and I'll just keep saying this with every post I make here, nobody has said anything about how mothers, or anyone, should not be able to eat their own placentas.

How is a placenta different from shit or piss?

...

Shit and piss are completely different than a placenta. First of all shit and piss are waste products expelled by the human body. I can't believe you think that eating a placenta is the equivalent of eating shit or piss. The placenta is meat and it has not been digested. Shit and piss are waste products and toxins that the body expels. If you're going to say that the placenta is like shit because it is a "a pile of expelled bloodvessals", then you shouldn't eat meat at all. Eating shit and drinking piss is not at all similar to eating a placenta.

And yes, people could eat shit due to curiosity. People could eat anything for the sake of curiosity. However, placenta is much more reasonable since it's not toxic, it's actually healthy, it's safe to eat, and it probably doesn't taste that bad. The only reason people get grossed out by it is because it's human meat and maybe due to the fact that it's a placenta.

piss is sterile (unless you're ill) so therefore its a warm delicious drink
the whole family can enjoy!

and kinda off topic but...


i actually was thinking to myself today
Cannibalism isn't that crazy of an idea...well for surviving
I'm not crazy to go out and eat a person but i would eat one
if it meant surviving...if we can eat an animal why not a person?
I'm pretty sure a cow had family and just because we can't tell
I'm pretty sure they miss their mother/brother/sister/whatever.
I'm not animal activist or anything, I love meat and will eat it till my death
but cannibalism and whatnot isn't so barbaric and crazy as people make it.

First of all shit and piss are waste products expelled by the human body.
The placenta is also a waste product expelled from the body.

So the difference between eating shit and eating placenta, according to you, is that placenta is allegedly healthy for you and maybe tastes better if you cook it right. I agree, cooked shit may be harder to make it taste better. It would take a lot of oregano.

You know what else they have in common? Nobody eats either of them (knowingly) cause its fucking disgusting. SUre it makes it gross that its human placenta- but eating animal placenta is gross too. I'm not even sure what you are arguing- surely you cant be arguing that shit that falls out of a vagina isn't considered gross by most people in this culture?

[intelc4004]

Well I guess it all depends on what kind of vagina.

[JustinJJ]

...surely you cant be arguing that shit that falls out of a vagina isn't considered gross by most people in this culture?

Far from it. If I was arguing that most people, under Western culture, like to eat placenta, I would need some help. What I'm saying is that those who do eat placenta aren't mentally insane and that it's actually not as gross as people are making it out to be.

[jec571]

blood comes out of the vagina....thats not a waste product

[goatkeeper]

Well I guess it all depends on what kind of vagina.
haha, i thought about that- then came to the conlcusion that, no matter who's vagina, anything that spills out of it is probablly not very savory.
unless it's your moms maybe.

blood comes out of the vagina....thats not a waste product
It's a waste product. Bodies don't throw shit out if they don't want it in- and girls would save up used tampons in glass jars in they wanted that shit around.

Not mentally insane, I agree.
Not actually as gross as people make it out to be- I don't know, have you tried placenta before? No? Oh...well then...how ...would you...know?

I still think its disgusting. And I'm surprised that so many people here are in support of it. But from an anthropological perspective, I suppose that different cultures can do what they want. As for this country, it's fucking disgusting and proves that anything can happen in America. There really is no reason to make it illegal, but bring that shit into my kitchen in little gladware tubs and I'll beat the fuck out of you and make you eat it.

[mrdie]

Yes, you HEREBY AGREE THAT...

When I say agree, let's look at what I want you to agree on:

*It should be legal.
That it should stay legal, thus, it should be legal. As in, to never be made illegal.

*It is a right.
That it is a right, and thus a human right, and that it should never be made illegal.

*It harms no one but POSSIBLY may harm the person who digested it.
What I said.

And since you agreed with me by answeing those by reciting them in what their status is: I thank you for siding with me.

Isn't placenta technically human flesh? Isn't this really a question of gustatory cannibalism??

You're not eating a dead person/living person. You're eating the afterbirth, that was deposited out of the vagina.

Uhm. You're welcome. Now let's see if I can get you to agree with me.

YOU HEREBY AGREE WITH:

*Nobody in this thread has really ever questioned the legality or morality of this issue, we just almost ALL think its terribly disgusting. So for God's sake shut the fuuuuuuuuuuck up*

[goatkeeper]

No, I think it's more like the point JustinJJ was trying to make earlier, that it's more like eating a piece of shit- Something the body discharges or disposes. It's a pretty fine line though eh

[Remission]

How often can you say "I ate my placenta"?

The question is, would you WANT to be able to say it?

[Remission]

piss is sterile (unless you're ill) so therefore its a warm delicious drink
the whole family can enjoy!

and kinda off topic but...


i actually was thinking to myself today
Cannibalism isn't that crazy of an idea...well for surviving
I'm not crazy to go out and eat a person but i would eat one
if it meant surviving...if we can eat an animal why not a person?
I'm pretty sure a cow had family and just because we can't tell
I'm pretty sure they miss their mother/brother/sister/whatever.
I'm not animal activist or anything, I love meat and will eat it till my death
but cannibalism and whatnot isn't so barbaric and crazy as people make it.


That's the craziest fucking thing I've ever heard :)

[JustinJJ]

Not mentally insane, I agree.
Not actually as gross as people make it out to be- I don't know, have you tried placenta before? No? Oh...well then...how ...would you...know?

Ture, I never have tried placenta before. I suppose what I meant to say, is that it doesn't look that disgusting after it's cooked. I'm also assuming it doesn't taste bad. Of course, I guess that's just an opinion.

This whole argument is actually kind of funny; think about it, 8 pages of debate over a placenta.

[chrisgy]

I'd eat it.

Maybe that's because I'm British and we're all messed-up!

[Bubba-E]

Well, animals eat theirs, right?

Well, all the more reason why we shouldn't eat ours! We are superior, so we should act like it.

:)

Wouldn't have put it any other way.

Nay. Some have compared it to cannibalism.

[Kitty enslayver]

i can't watch it, i got the barf-o-feeling just looking a the pic whilst reading the discription. I hope they weren't american, what a disgrace. Although, its a toss up for me comparing it to the rodent/spider/poo/etc........etc........etc.........etc videos. I'm unsure which one i would eat if i had to eat 1 of them. I'm completely boggled as to why people would eat the umbilical and placenta combo. That will make a great story for the child who that was attached to grows up. weird & wtf :squint:


wat ya mean disgrace have u seen the president i dont think theres anything more embarassing then him. and lol it looked like from the picture spaghetti sauce....from a public school lol i think i might watch it like sometime when i havent atein in awhile lol

[mateo8]

You're not eating a dead person/living person. You're eating the afterbirth, that was deposited out of the vagina.

But still. The placenta is flesh, composed of cells... HUMAN cells. How can the consumption of human flesh possibly not be called cannibalism??

[JagerX2]

Looking at it from another point of view, I've raised animals all my life, and humans are actually the only mammals who DON'T eat their afterbirth. Goats, pigs, cows, sheep, dogs, they all eat it, mainly because it has all the nutrients that didn't go to the baby, and those nutrients go to the milk, so the baby gets them.




Not saying I'd eat it though. Bleh.

[Kitty enslayver]

awwwwww man we had meat balls and this cheese stuff idk it might been good but it was covered in sauce i couldnt eat it lol

[wired_100x]

blood comes out of the vagina....thats not a waste product

blood that comes out of the vagina IS a waste product


Nay. Some have compared it to cannibalism.

cannibalism is eating human flesh, regardless of whether or not it's from a dead person.
jeez, what is it that you think those people were doing in that video? in case you dont know...THEY WERE EATING HUMAN FLESH. that came out of a vagina nonetheless.


Well, animals eat theirs, right?

Well, all the more reason why we shouldn't eat ours! We are superior, so we should act like it.

:)

Amen. this just wraps up every arguement about this that anyone could possibly think up.

and for those of you who argued that it was okay since humans are animals and animals eat it, you can just move right onto a farm and reproduce with a horse, and then, HEY, you get to EAT THE PLACENTA!

oh also, you should eat it raw..since that's how it's done in nature

So the thread continues.

You're looking at this in black and white: you either act like a complete animal or you have to completely defy natural instinct. If we can't eat placenta because it's "natural", then we shouldn't have sex, after all, that's just pure instinct. If we're so superior to animals, then having sex should be just as vile as eating a placenta.

It seems that this difference in views is about principles more than anything else. People want to believe that humans are above all other animals. Even though we're one of the most dominant species on the planet, we're still animals and we're still a slave to our instincts. For God's sake, most of Western society revolves around the most primal instinct of them all: sex.

I think having sex is completely different than eating placenta... for one, people get pleasure out of sex, and two how can any species exist without reproducing? Eating the placenta isn't required to prolong the existance of a certain species.

yes the thread does continue, and i see that you are back.

1. that is a terrible analogy.
2. no one said you CAN"T eat it. go ahead if you want to, but people are going to label that as cannibalism.
3. sex doesnt exclusively apply to animals. flowers mate too. (would you categorize what animals do as "having sex," or is it "mating." cuz sex tends to refer to pleasure while what animals do is to reproduce).
4. okay so sex is "vile." does anyone seem to get offended by that? does it stop them from doing it? NO. So go ahead and eat your placenta and don't care whether or not people call you vile.

since when did NOT eating a placenta mean that one was "completely defying natural instinct?"
have you eaten a placenta? if you havent, i think you should eat one so you can get in touch with your "basic primal instincts"

okay now, goodbye

Hey, we've beensaying the same things to this guy over and over for the last few pages- his arguments are so ridiculous I'm starting to think he's just joking.

I can't believe I left this topic for a day and it jumped another few pages. I was thinking every possible statement had been made, but alas- We had not discussed civilized human behavior vs animal instinct or Justin's brilliant "placenta is like having sex" strategy.
Again, Justin has never eaten a placenta, and I woudln't be surprised if he's never had sex either. Let's just reassure him again that if he ever does want to eat any form of vaginal discharge (aside from a fetus I guess), nobody is trying to take away his precious right to do so.

Nice. Making the argument personal. Anyways, I'll say it for the hundredth time, this is not about me eating a placenta; I already said I probably would never eat one. This argument has nothing to do with me.

My analogy about eating a placenta and having sex was a pretty bad analogy. And, yes eating a placenta is cannibalism, since cannibalism is defined as eating human flesh. My original argument was over the statement that you're mentally unstable if you eat placenta, but that was already straightened out. I don't know what I'm rambling on about now, nor do I know what anyone else is arguing about. So yeah, I guess there is not much to argue over.

[goatkeeper]

Ok, so you sound like a pretty nice guy and I more or less agree with you on those points so sorry bout making it personal.

[RyogaVee]

Allow me to toss one more thing out there.
There is NOTHING more nutritious for a new born child than the mother’s milk, NOTHING. So much in fact that “Nestle” was sued and fined many times over for illegal practices in other countries for telling the natives that their baby formula was better than breast milk.

Science has proven that ingesting the placenta adds important nutrients that aid in post partum depression and other vital proteins that shorten a mother’s recovery time from birth. This is also placed back into the mother milk and given to the baby.

So I guess what im saying is, if you want a super baby, healthy, strong, and brilliant, eat your damn placenta. If you want another brain dead stupid kid that will be likely to end up on ebaums world trying to jump a row of cars between an alligator pit on a skate board… go with the formula.

[mac]

You know its quite interesting what my roommate said when I brought this up, he told me that it's not considered cannibalism if the person's life is not taken from them. So I said, "if I sawed my arm off and gave it to you to throw on the grill, that would NOT be an act of cannabalism?" and he said that it didn't. So placenta, let alone my left leg, is not considered cannabalism? I've never heard this before. Does anyone else agree with this because I was a little freaked by it.

You know what I think? I think you should call the cops, because as far as I'm concerned your friend has a bunch of people locked up in his basement, cutting off their body parts but not actually killing them- so it's not really considered cannabalism. ;)

[RyogaVee]

I kinda agree with the friend. question is, is the eating of human cells cannibalism? We have all swalowed spit, snot, or blood from a nose bleed. children are known to pick scabs and eat them. so is that any less cannibalism than eathing the placenta. or is this defined by the amount you eat?

haha, tell your roommate that as fun as it may be, you can't just go around redefining words. cannabalism is already a defined word- the practice of eating others of your own kind. You can eat parts of someone without killing them.

So your mother ate her placenta or are you a brain dead stupid kid?

Refer to the above. Cannabalism is ALREADY defined in websters and suchforth- look it up. accidentally eating snot is not cannablism. The idea is that for either ritualistic or survival reasons you are "eating" someone. I don't think the placenta counts as someone, as it is discharge, as with spit, snot, cum, etc. I guess by definition you have to eat someone in the sense that you are eating food- and the victim has to be, to some degree, "eaten."
