Burgers made from poop, a pretty non-appetizing substitute to real meat!

by Gavril Mankoo

If you’re munching away on a burger while reading this, we sincerely suggest you either lay it off for now, or gulp it down quickly before proceeding. Burgers made from human poop aren’t all that appetizing to read about after all! Japanese scientist Mitsuyuki Ikeda has been playing around with some extremely non-conventional raw materials to make burgers. Having created an artificial meat of sorts, Ikeda used soya, steak sauce essence, and protein extracted from human feces to create this stack of burgers. Well, we love the idea of using soya and steak sauce essence. We’d probably drop in a few eggs to make up for the protein instead though!

And the ironical part is, these burgers cost about 20 to 30 times more than the usual beef burger you could heartily munch on! Poop burgers anyone? We pass!
