and not the surgeon general?

I know right? That seems most important to me.

On a side note.. if Oprah were the pope... would that make her Poperah?

yes, I believe it would, and since we've derailed this most serious of topics, perhaps Dr Phil should have a show on this...

Actually, it sounds like something they'd tackle on "The Doctors."

(Or better yet, MythBusters...I'd love to see what they'd do with this."

"Stefan Gates[/URL] in his book <I>Gastronaut</I> discusses eating dried nasal mucus, and says that 44% of people he questioned said they had eaten their own dried nasal mucus in adulthood and said they liked it"

44% of adults probably don't eat most fruits and veggies.

Someone should come up with a treat called "Boogers" that tastes like boogers.

Something kind of salty that is chewy on the inside and slightly crunchy on the outside, perhaps.

What do boogers taste like? I can't think of anything that compares well to boogers. They are perhaps a unique gastronomic experience.

Certain nut meats are close. hearty tasting and slightly salty.

"dried nasal mucus," sounds like and ingredient. I think I'll be reading my ingredient lists a little more closely. Although frankly it sounds no worse than "Evaporated cane juice."

I notice that re-direction is often recommended here to get kids to change their behavior. So a treat called Boogers could be a fine parenting product for re-direction from eating boogers.

Or how about this recipe for Nose with Boogers:

Ingredients:

One baguette or bread loaf nose (i.e. end)
Crunchy peanut butter

Gouge out 2 nostrils from the nose. Fill with peanut butter.

My one year old would probably eat it. He eats everything.
