If you’ve ever wished your food was
more like a dirty diaper, you’re in luck! Researchers say baby
poop may be the key to making sausage healthier. Bacteria from
the baby waste could potentially transform cured meats like pepperoni
and salami into foods that have health benefits similar to probiotic
yogurts. The two kinds of bacteria used most often in probiotics are
much more abundant in infant feces than adult excrement, so
scientists gathered samples from healthy infants and made sausages
with it. They found that not only were the sausages better for you,
they also tasted just like regular, non-poop sausages. Not sure if
they’ll be able to market that to normal consumers, though!
