The practice of using human feces as fertilizer is still the norm for many countries that export both fresh and processed food to the United States.

Way back in the 60’s, in Japan, we used to watch the “benjo-man” hauling buckets of fresh poop directly to the fields and pouring it on his crops. Americans were strongly advised to avoid the locally grown veggies.

Maybe that’s why they call them “Turd World” countries.

If we could only ban it's use and chemically fertilize.

Boy wouldn't that be a breath of fresh air?
