Are Boogers Nutritious?



Today I saw a guy in his car sneak a booger into his mouth. He thought no one saw him. But I saw him. Yes sirreee I did! I love it when people think they're being sly and clever even though they're not. I wish I took a picture because then you'd have an actual visual. Many apologies for not coming through, most of the time, these kinds of things just happen on the spot. On the bright side, you aren't missing out on much, it was not a pretty site. Just felt exhilarating, like I was Big Brother watching in on him!

This got me thinking - Are boogers nutritious? Here's what I found after searching the tinterweb for 30 seconds:

There are approximately 2 calories, 3mg of sodium, 2% DV of Iron, per nail full of Boogers, plus germs.


Wow, you learn something new every day!

Don't know whose gross kid this is, just found it while searching for an answer. Can someone call DFS please? God, the longer I look at this kid, he's really deterring me from having any of my own! It's also pretty close to making me throw up in my mouth:



I bet his mom wore this T-shirt when she was pregnant with him:


Yes to any feminists reading this, that does say 'WOMB BOOGER ON BOARD'. Use your imagination...I'm really looking forward to your hate mail :)

Look, I don't care if there were negative calories in boogers and they tasted like Thanksgiving dinner! No thank you!

I would however eat these:
Anyone know where I can get some?

  8. interesting, when children eat boogers they automatically receive antibodies and they are resistant to diseases. I'm not sure but it may be xD
