i would do anything for love...but i wont eat that.

There are many things I will eat - pig's trotters, pig intestines, pig's blood (okay so mostly pig related stuff) and chicken's feet, but I wont eat a placenta. After rumours yesterday was that Tom Cruise wanted to eat Katie's placenta, we talked about placenta recipes at work, as you do. ;-p

Last night, I asked mum about placentas and she replied of course they eat them in China and OF COURSE the hospitals sell human placentas to the food markets so that people can buy one and cook it up at home. You can even get placenta soup at the hospital canteen. OF COURSE! The going rate for a placenta in Guangdong?
Fresh placentas for about 100 yuan (US$12) each and dried ones for 130 yuan (US$16).
