    hmm, had this convo the other day.
    i seem to be having bizarre chats these days?
    anyway, the chat was about mothers making pate out of the placenta and then having plavemta parties to welcome home the newborn and all that.
    not my cup of tea, but its suppose to be full of nutriants and animals eat it.
    i guess its that whole human disgust thin.

    I've actualy watched that programme in question.

    While it does seem a little odd, calling it cannibalism is quite overblown.

    can·ni·bal
    1 A person who eats the flesh of other humans.
    2 An animal that feeds on others of its own kind.

    flesh (flsh)
    1The soft tissue of the body of a vertebrate, covering the bones and consisting mainly of skeletal muscle and fat.
    2The surface or skin of the human body.
    3The meat of animals as distinguished from the edible tissue of fish or fowl.

    pla·cen·ta (pl-snt)

    A membranous vascular organ that develops in female mammals during pregnancy, lining the uterine wall and partially enveloping the fetus, to which it is attached by the umbilical cord. Following birth, the placenta is expelled.

    Organ
    Biology. A differentiated part of an organism, such as an eye, wing, or leaf, that performs a specific function.

    So is it caniballism ?

    I don't know

    Some parents take it home and plant a tree, using the placenta as fertilizer.

    I'm not sure if this is true, but a midwife told me that she always knows if a mother has been sneaking a smoke by the grey colour of the placenta, even for an occasional smoker.

    Wow...

    If it was a help to the mother after chidbirth then id say yeah.....

    It is not Cannibillism <strictly speaking> but good human tradition

    Which begs the question: If you eat your snot are you a cannabil?
