I tell liberals this all the time. Funny , they don’t think I’m doing it for their health.

I've read that the reason so many kids have allergies now is that their houses are too clean. They don't get exposed to various things the way kids used to.

We could save money on electricity if we moved back into caves. But we don’t - for the same reason civilization advances when we avoid things like sh** in our food.

[brownsfan]

Funny.

Not exactly wisdom, but funny.

Hey, this could be another justification for nominating Rudy!

This is a ploy to boost the circulation at the NYT.

They can try to shove their crap down my throat, but I'm not gonna swallow it anymore.

This post was right behind Hillary’s health plan posting. I thought this was the Hillary equivalent of “Let them eat cake!”.

Why Americans should ingest more excrement.

Oh, great. Another person telling us we need 8 more years of the Clintons.

[No Truce With Kings]

Well just damn!

They are telling us listening to politicians improves your health if I am reading this correctly. Or is it *believing* what politicians say?

[CougarGA7]

See! Even doctors think we should eat more Taco Bell.

Eat Crap: Why Americans should ingest more excrement.

Whether you reralize it or not every time you eat a factory processed chicken from Perdue, Pantry Pride, etc... you are most likely consuming loads of crap. When they chill the chickens after processing they may spend as long as an hour in a rinse that is essentially a "fecal soup". To counteract the effects of this contamination, they are immersed in as many as 40 chlorine baths before final packaging.

No funny when one has had a child become ill from E. coli and had to deal with damages from that for years.

[Scotsman will be Free]

OK. Sounds good. Who’s first?

Eat Crap: Why Americans should ingest more excrement.

Oh great. Another pro-Hillary thread.

The triumph of Western civilization is, first and foremost, a triumph of pipes and valves and the fact that water runs downhill. Aqueducts bring fresh water in, cobblestoned underground tunnels move used water out, and, presto, our world is clean.

Aqueducts may be fine and all, but the Romans had common toilets that were basically slabs on a platform, with a hole in it, and for cleaning up, there was a stick with cloth tied to it, kept aside in a bucket of water, and everyone used the same swab after each session, and dislodged the fecal remains in the bucket (all of this was rather elaborately described in a National Geographic magazine celebrating the whole Roman Empire. If you can get your hands on one, it's a great read. It was dated 1997, IIRC). I hope no one was eating anything while they read this, lol!

Like I always said:

“Life is like a S#1% Sandwich. The more bread you got, the less S#1% you have to eat.”

[lightman]

So the new mantra is “Eat $hit or die”?

“Maybe we are taking the wrong approach.”

I tend to agree that too much cleanliness may be destroying
our immune system.
Put a 21st century American into an 18th century environment, he would probably be dead within a month.
