Re: Consumption of Urine (Re: Brain and kidney recipes?)

Are there really any other cultures?

----->i read somewhere that the masai clean their fermenting gourds with

urine, i assume some gets mixed in with the blood and milk that they

ferment, but maybe it's just a tiny bit. so if they drink urine it may be

purely incidental.

i have heard some good testimonials re urine therapy though - one from a

surgeon and another from my ND who used it on himself to treat lymes

disease.

It was posted sometime back, an article on someplace

in Africa. The boys would collect cow urine, and the women

would place it in pots to " age " -- it would ferment into

something they regard as quite a delicacy.

Right about the same time we were talking about

fermented caterpillars too -- Mike would like that one!

They collected the caterpillars off the crops, I think,

and just put them in a jar, where they die and ferment.

Then they eat them a month or so later.
