Did you ever imagine eating recycling of human waste? Perhaps most people will be disgusted, but it is real because of the recent Japanese scientists apply the principle of recycling and decided to create a steak made from human waste.

Mitsuyuki Ikeda, Laboratory scientists from Okayama, get this strange idea of ​​following the valley of the management entity requests Tokyo Sewage him to find ways to utilize the waste in the city. Similarly, as reported by Yahoo News, Sunday (19/06/2011).

When it was discovered that human feces contain protein, Ikeda with his research team is extracting the protein to create artificial meat. Ikeda uses food coloring to create a reddish color on the meat and add the soy sauce as a flavoring.

Contains 63 percent protein, 25 percent carbohydrate, 3 percent fat and 9 percent minerals, Ikeda claimed several people who have tasted this meat was quite like the taste. According to them, this stool is quite delicious steak and taste like meat in general.

Apart from the material manufacturer, Ikeda hope this meat could be one solution in anticipation of global warming. Because the livestock produce greenhouse gas emissions significantly.
