Synthetic Meat From Dirt, Healthy?

Japanese researchers found that synthetic meat derived from human feces. Then, if the findings were healthy for human consumption?

According to experts, the theoretical findings were safe for consumption. The trick, should be cooked to deadly diseases toxic in it. "Make sure the food is cooked before consumption," said associate professor of food safety at Kansas State University, Douglas Powell, as quoted from page livescience.com.

To create synthetic meat, Japanese researchers to separate proteins from the bacteria in feces. Meat is produced by extracting dirt content of basic foods, like carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in the feces and combining substances again.

The resulting synthetic meat made ​​up dri 63 percent protein, 25 percent carbohydrate, three per cent fat, and nine percent of the mineral. Of soy protein added in the manufacturing process to add flavor and color of these synthetic flesh to appear more red.

Powell himself admitted to not understanding the methods used by Japanese scientists in finding these synthetic flesh. But he expects the Japanese experts that heats the dirt prior to process them.

Powell said that eating meat is the same as consuming synthetic fertilized plants, because nutrients in the manure was similar to that contained in the plant.

"In theory, there is nothing wrong with this synthetic flesh," Powell said.

"It's very safe to eat, but I'm sure there are disgusting factor here."

After all, says Powell, food safety must be examined through lab. What is clear, prior to consumption of synthetic flesh has to be cooked first.

So, what if the synthetic meat is not cooked? "I will not touch it," Powell said.
