glowing_dragonI had a dream where Liz from the GARFIELD comics was squished upside-down in the panels, and screaming at Chelsea S. Then I tried cooking ground beef in a silver metal bowl, but it came out looking like the pink-and-white yarn homemade sponge that my parents have! Ugh, I hope THIS isn't an omen! It shouldn't be, since I plan to boil the actual ground beef in a non-stick pot for some "DIRTY RICE" New Orleans-style mix.
Ground beef with a bunch of cayenne pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and a random lavender herb rub from the cupboard turned out fairly decently... I hope! The Canucks played the Blue Jackets at 4 PM today, but lost 2-1 in overtime. DAMMIT. Ate all that dirty rice; it was a bit much for one sitting, so I'll take the rest home sometime. Called Steph later to share something gross, hehehe.
The Facts About Poop! 75% of your poop is water. Of the remaining 25%, half is comprised of fiber that our bodies find indigestible and help our poop move through our digestive system. Another 1/3 is composed of dead bacteria. The other 1/3 is a mixture of fats, inorganic salts, dead cells, mucus, and live bacteria.
Poop stinks because bacteria produce foul-smelling compounds that are rich in sulfur and nitrogen. Turds that float have unusually high gas content. During World War II, German tank drivers thought it was good luck to drive over camel dung... the British found out and made explosives that looked like poop. BOOMSHAKALAKA!
The outer skin of a corn kernel is indigestible and seem to appear as whole kernels in our stool. Rabbits can poop up to 500 pellets per day. With the help of a high-fiber diet, the longest poop ever recorded was 26 feet. Some caterpillars can fling their feces up to 3 feet to elude predators. The average human poops two pounds a day. Elephants produce up to 80 pounds per day.
POOP COLOR CHART: Brown is caused by bilirubin, a pigment resulting from the breakdown of red blood cells. Green is caused by consumption of leafy green vegetables. Red is caused by bleeding in the lower digestive tract or rectum. Yellow indicates bowel hyper-mobility or giardia. Blue is caused by illness in babies, or foods with a high concentration of blue food coloring. White is caused by lack of bile. Dark brown indicates bleeding in the upper digestive tract.
Coffee cherries are fed to civets, a weasel-like animal. During digestion, the animal's enzymes mix with the coffee beans and come out in their poop. The beans are made into civet coffee, and can cost up to $600 per pound.
