Tom Cruise Eats Placenta
Tom Cruise is having an active publicity year -- couch jumping on Oprah, dishing out mental health advice, publicly gushing about his new love, and all that Church of Scientology stuff. But this new item today is worthy of weird meat gossip. According to this Chinese news website, Xinhua, Tom Cruise is eating placenta from his new child / mother?
WeirdMeat.com has nothing against eating placenta. We've never tried it. We know it's been considered a healthy consumable for centuries, in cultures all over the world. But it's not really a valid part of a "cuisine" so it hasn't interested us. Nor do we know how to find some, nor any good recipes. I suppose it's not technically cannibalism -- it's harmless, right -- but it's not on WeirdMeat.com's list. Has anyone out there tried it that can comment?

you can read about eating placenta in hopkins' book.
Apparently he was "just kidding" about that whole comment, because he rescinded recently. What a weirdo.

yeah what carl said. He was joking about eating the placenta.
but the guys from vice magazine weren't!!!
I knew someone who claimed to have eaten a human placenta once.
He was in the peace corps (or something like that) in central america. I forget the details but he and a friend decided they wanted to eat placenta and when a woman in the village gave birth they asked for*, and were given, the placenta. He said they fried it and it tasted like liver.
*I think they tried to explain why they wanted it, but she didn't care....
I once saw a british documentary (don't know where exactly) that showed a man and woman and their friends eating the woman's placenta after she gave birth. They made a pate' and 'fajitas' from it and served it at a small dinner party (with everyone fully in-the-know). Didn't look all that appetizing to me...
i used to eat this when i was a kido..auntie was working in teh hospital and i was sick as a fuck.sort of bronchitis but even serious..good stuff..u can put it into a saucepan and have the soup..and stir-fry the residue..i mean the Placenta.
