I'll take one, boiled over hard, and a side of your finest jelly beans, raw.

I don't think that's a real article. What is a "reaction enhancer"? Maybe they mean an RT-PCR but that would just amplify the proteins that are already in there, it wouldn't extract any nutrition from the poop.

I have no idea what an "exploder" could be. I entered this thread wanting to justify to myself the environmental benefits of eating poop.

I think it's going to turn out to be a fake. Someone is pulling the other one.

It's actually older than that; these 2011 links refer to similar stories circulating in the 1990s.
