TOM Cruise has claimed he will eat the PLACENTA after fiancée Katie Holmes has their baby.

The actor, 43 — who wants her to give birth in silence according to his Scientology cult rules — said: “I’m gonna eat the placenta, too.

“I thought that would be good. Very nutritious. I’m going to eat the cord and the placenta right there.”

But when a GQ magazine interviewer said it would be a big meal, Cruise replied: “OK, maybe I won’t.”

Good grief. I've never read anything so repulsive and already feel very sorry for this poor kid.

Dont knock it until you have it chicken-fried...

What a kook

[teenyelliott]

I probably will bank cord blood

I read a report on that, and the opinion was that the whole saving cord blood thing is a new fangled racket. Have you done any research on it? Might save you some money.

Oh, come on now....who hasn't tried a little placenta? I am snacking on some now....tastes just like chicken.

[Alamo-Girl]

Jeepers... Thanks for the ping...

[Feiny]

That is the best article ever....I am forwarding it to every deranged friend.

"When you first encounter the meat, remember to pause--placenta can be sacred food, if you let the meat tell you how to prepare it for the fire.... Chew slowly, till the placenta becomes a liquid, ambrosia. Placenta is a rare privilege for most of us."

[Feiny]

He is clearly kidding around, but no one on this thread seems to find it as funny as I do.

[dfwgator]

But considering that Tom believes that crap that Scientologists do, why is it such a stretch to think that he wasn't joking?

[dc27]

He clearly doesn't have any idea of what he's getting into. A placenta for a full-term baby is about the size of a dinner plate, and 1.5 to 2 inches thick. And the cord is long! And it's fibrous and rubbery.

Reminds me of that movie with John Candy, "The Great Outdoors", where he had to eat a 96oz steak to get the meal free. He even had to eat the fat and gristle.

[Feiny]

You are right....besides Fat Bastrd eats babies. The other other white meat.

Or perhaps Tom is part dingo.

Jeepers, feinie, is there anything that can shock/gross you out?! I could HURL!

(Please tell me I am not on your email list of "deranged friends"... I can't read anymore of this revolting madness. Have mercy!)

xo!

[Feiny]

Yes, there are things that creep me out....but I'm not givin you ammo. No. You are not on my list.

[Feiny]

Old porcelain dolls & people who collect them really freak me out.

[teenyelliott]

Well, clearly all Scientologists are incapable of rational thought at any moment of any day EVER, let alone be capable of making a joke, right?

I heard Scientologists eat their parents when they get old and feeble.

Since you just read that, it must be true. Tell everyone you know!!!!!!

No, cannibalism is eating human meat. This, I believe, is considered, "dairy."

(Dairy is the food product of an animal which does not result in the death or impairment of the animal, if you ever wondered what milk and eggs had in common.)

[dangus]

Well, actually its serving women. Small difference. But I hear Cruise likes eating men, too.

>> Or perhaps Tom is part dingo. <<

He did MARRY a dingo for a few years. Very nice looking dingo, if I may add...

(Actually, like Mel Gibson, she was really a NYer.)

With fava beans and a nice Chianti......

...and what would appear to be extra mayo on the main dish.

[MoochPooch]

I can't tell if Cruse is certifiably nuts or just desperate for publicity.
