    I was there for all three of my kids births, and as beautiful as those events were...the placenta is absolutely DISGUSTING!!!

    We're not stray cats that eat it so their milk will come in... for god's sakes people!

    Tom Cruise... is an idiot.

    ? Isn't that a bit gross, canabalistic, and downright . I can't imagine knowing that my father ate my mother's placenta! I can't imagine even imagining that it was "ok" to eat a placenta.

    Tom Cruise did "back down" from his statement after it hit google.

    ROFLMAO!!! I wonder what it would taste like with a pinch of salt, a touch of garlic and onions. With a pat of butter and grilled chicken and apple sausage, with hash browns." Top it off with a tall glass of Kool-Aid ( the red kind)LOL!!!

    Everytime I see him i end up laughing my ass off!!! I have been brainwashed to accept his damn foolery by mainstream hollywood.

    Hell Yeah I 'll go see M.I. 3! And run home and jump on my couch for personal pleasure!!

    it is has been used as a medicine in China for many years. In fact, the placenta is quite sort after, being included in pharmacological preparations to treat infertility, chronic fatigue syndrome and a variety of other diseases

    I'm reminded of a line from Futurama....

    Robot Sound Truck- "Calling all scientist! Emergency meeting! Calling all scientist"
    Little Man Runs Out To TruckLittle Man- "I have a degree in homeopathic medicine!"
    Robot Sound Truck-"you have a degree in NOTHING"
    Shoots Little Man With Firehose!

    This is gross, this is disgussting, tom cruise is a feaky piece of crap who can't act and is 4 foot tall! Don't tell me 'other cultures do it' I'm not in other cultures I'm in America!

    Finally, David English of Somerville, Massachusetts, has thoughtfully sent me a copy of the script for a censored Saturday Night Live skit featuring--you'd better sit down for this--Placenta Helper. "Placenta Helper lets you stretch your placenta into a tasty casserole," it sez here. "Like Placenta Romanoff--a zesty blend of cheeses makes for the zingy sauce that Russian czars commanded at palace feasts," etc. The last line was supposed to have been a voice-over from Don Pardo: "Placenta Helper--make a rare occasion, a rare occasion." Very tasteful. Why it got cut we'll never know.

    I read the preceding years ago in "The Straight Dope" and found it on the website for your enjoyment...

    Why let this valuable organ go to waste, when there is mom's special tasty lasagna to be made?

    Placentophagia (or placentaphagia) is the practice of consuming the placenta. Many mammals naturally eat the placenta soon after birth and it is also practiced in some traditional cultures. Preparations vary, including eating raw slivers, recipes such as lasagna, soups, stews etc., or medicinal pills and concoctions. The placenta can be eaten by the mother and/or saved for the child (after introduction of solids). The most beneficial times for the mother are shortly after childbirth or during times of tiredness or energy deficiency. For the child perhaps at times of energy deficiency or perhaps consider before the 7 & 8 year cycles of growth (7, 14 etc for girls, 8, 16 etc. for boys). Why Eat Placenta?

    There are many benefits to eating placenta and although it is not well documented in Western society it is has been used as a medicine in China for many years. In fact, the placenta is quite sort after, being included in pharmacological preparations to treat infertility, chronic fatigue syndrome and a variety of other diseases. Placenta is bought from young, healthy women then tested and treated accordingly. Why let this valuable organ go to waste?
