Most people know hot dogs are not good for you and that most chocolate contains small amounts of insects in them but what about feces ( poop ) ? Surely none of our food or drink will contain such waste. .. ..
Well, I hate to break it to you but plenty of what we consume contain poop and/or pee. I have compiled a short list below of food and drinks that contain poop or pee, so if you don't want to have your appetite ruined I suggest you click up-vote and then run away from this topic as fast as you can.
First on the list is wine.
Hello wine drinkers. .. I know you are reading this. Ttongsul is a traditional Korean wine ( and medicine ) made from feces ( More specifically fermented baby poop ). So keep that in mine when you are decided on which wine will go great with dinner tonight :)
Check out the video below - I made it less then one minute into it before turning it off.
Next we have everyone's favorite morning drink --- Coffee
Yes you read that right. Coffee contains animal poop ( at least its not baby poop ). Civet Coffee or Kopi luwak is one of the most if not the most expensive coffee drinks in the world at $700 per kilogram. At some shops a cup of Kopi luwak could cost you up to $600.
"Kopi luwak is the world’s most expensive coffee. The main factor of it’s high price is the uncommon method of producing such a coffee. It has been produced from the coffee beans which have been digested by a certain Indonesian cat-like animal called the palm civet or also civet cat. This is the reason kopi luwak is also called cat poop coffee or civet cat coffee. The feces of this cat will be collected, finished and sold as kopi luwak. "
What's that ? You drink tea not coffee ... well I got some bad news for you.
Panda tea or panda dung tea is the worlds most expensive tea at about $200 a cup. It is cultivated in the mountains of Ya'an, Sichuan and fertilized and cultivated by the dung of pandas. The creator of this tea promises drinkers they can expect 'a mature and nutty taste'
It broke my heart to learn about this next one .. .Beer
Yes some brands of beer contain poop and people loved the below brand so much it sold out in minutes when first hitting the market. Japanese brewery Sankt Gallen created the beer named Un, Kono Kuro. Which was a brew made from coffee beans that have passed through an elephant.
Well if beer wasn't a shocker then this one sure is ( at least for me it was ). Hamburger contains poop.
Most have enjoyed a good hamburger at some point but did you know you likely ate some poop in the process. A new Consumer Reports tested 300 packages of ground beef, bought from more than 100 grocery, big-box, and natural food stores in 26 cities nationwide.
The result:
All 458 pounds of beef we examined contained bacteria that signified fecal contamination (enterococcus and/or non-toxin-producing E. coli), which can cause blood or urinary tract infections.
There you have it. Five foods / Drinks that contain poop. So the next time you eat a juicy burger and wash it down with a nice cold beer just remember you may be consuming some poop.
