Placenta... Its whats for dinner.

Let's be clear about some things:

• The placenta is a human organ. It connects a fetus to the uterine wall. To say that "technically, it's not a human body part" is absolutely and completely incorrect. It is the textbook definition of a human body part. It is NOT a byproduct.
  
  
• This is the equivalent of having a kidney removed.... and then eating it.
  
  
• I seriously doubt that cooked placenta has any health benefit above eating any other cooked meat.
  
  
• The concept of cooking and eating one of my own organs is pretty disgusting to me.
  
  
• This is called cannibalism. If you don't think cannibalism is disgusting, you're a complete r****d.

 

Unless this is going to prevent you from one day purposely drowning your kid in a bathtub then eff that.

 

Do you consider someone when they cut their finger sucking it to be cannibalism?

 

hmmm going to go make myself a sandwich...

 

Anyone else watched their cat(s) much down a raw placenta right after birthing a litter of kittens?

 

I've come close to eating one before.

 

My dog did that, and ate the umbilical cords.

 

I see what you did there.
