Kesha Eats Toilet Paper — Strange Addiction! | Random : Just Jared

My question is..when she goes number 2, is everything taken care of by itself?

[tastybasslines]

The pure, heavy load of such a crappy fetish must weigh massive on her.

[stratovani]

It just goes to show, human beings are capable of absolutely anything!

I bet that 1-ply stuff scratches when it goes down too.

[knumbskull]

saves time in the morning, i'll bet.

And this is strange because of why?

I bet she could make friends in Japan easily in the new "burger" joints.

And think about it, she can then say she even eats her "napkin" after the "burger"!!!

I think a comment from Geo. Washington at the Battle of White Plains, NY on October 28, 1776 when he saw the British dislodge his men from their position is appropriate concerning this woman (and Japan's new cuisine):

"That's frickin' terrible!"

*************************************************

bad thought: what will Japan do to make an ersatz hotdog now that the burger problem is solved? Whoa!

That chick is cool.

I knew a lady where I used to work that ate potting soil when she got pregnant because she CRAVED it. She had to blame the cat at the inlaws house for the dirt that went missing in the potted plants.

You don't look at someone in the same light when they tell you something like that.

Geophagy... and it is relatively common, especially among pregnant women.

While geophagy is most often seen in tribal and rural societies among children and pregnant women, it is practiced by members of all races, social classes, ages, and sexes. In some parts of the world, geophagia is a culturally sanctioned practice. In many parts of the developing world, earth intended for consumption is available for purchase.

In parts of Africa, rural areas of the United States, and villages in India, clay consumption is correlated with pregnancy and some women eat clay to eliminate nausea, possibly because the clay coats the gastrointestinal tract and may absorb dangerous toxins. The clay may also provide critical calcium for fetal development.

In Haiti, the poorest economy in the Western Hemisphere, geophagy is widespread. The clay mud is worked into what looks like pancakes or cookies, called "bon bon de terres" (Earthy bon bons), that are dried in the sun and sold throughout the poorer areas. Small amounts of other ingredients, vegetable shortening, salt and sometimes sugar, are also added to the mix. The cookies have little or no nutritional value and are associated with various health problems.

While in the US and Europe the practice has often been stigmatized, this is not necessarily so in other parts of the world. Most non-Western societies consider geophagy to be an adaptive, beneficial, and nutritional approach to promote health. There's a trend in recent scientific research to study geophagy not as a pathology, but rather as an adaptive behaviour that supplements the diet with essential nutrients or treats a disorder such as diarrhea.

Bentonite clay is available worldwide as a digestive aid; kaolin is also widely used as a digestive aid and as the base for some medicines. Attapulgite, another type of a clay, is an active ingredient in many anti-diarrheal medicines
