Picking your nose and eating it. Yum

So.

It turns out that snacking between meals might be good for you.
Best not clip those nails. A longer nail is a handy, more efficient snot catcher.

How do you eat yours?

An associate professor of biochemistry at the University of Saskatchewan, Scott Napper, says there could very well be health benefits to that most icky of icky habits: picking our noses and eating it.

Sounds plausible,on the other hand it's incredable there hasn't been a snot joke in the last three hours.

Sounds like nonsense to me. The fact is all of us eat most of the contents of our nose already. And our ears.

The Ears and nose all have drainage into the back of the throat and from there into the stomach.

So what benefit doing this manually could possibly bring is beyond me to guess at.

It's the crusty stuff thy has all the goodness. The stuff that doesn't drain.

So flicking snot balls at someone is actually doing them a favour.

One of my kids wont eat his vegetables but will quite happily sit there and eat snots! Go figure!

Uriel.

I'd eat them but I'm watching my calorie and fat intake at the moment. Maybe next year

Mmmm,schalty.

Snot something I'm considering doing at the moment but you never know.

Nasal mucous traps germs and stops them from getting into our lungs, Napper says, but it’s possible that if we eat the mucous, exposure to those germs could actually help build immunity.

I feel sick

Obvious answer is to mix snot with the veg.

Saw a woman doing this last week in my local Dunnes car park.

She had a slightly different technique. She picked as normal, found one, looked at it for a brief second before consuming.

She obvious has certain types she enjoys.

You could mixe it with Alpen in the morning.
Thats full of all sorts of healthy stuff.

It would be like finding a nice chewy raisin.

Years ago when I was a kid, a friend could make me wretch on demand with the most disgustiing mental image I've had in my whole life.

There was this town alcoholic and he used to cycle a bicycle and he smelled of stale piss and looked like he hadn't washed in years.

Anyway we used to play that "would you rather..." game, and my friend used to say would you rather suck another lad off, or would you rather eat a bowl of ******'s snot with a spoon

I still feel queasy thinking about it. But of course the answer always had to be eat a bowl of ******'s snot... and I don't know why the spoon makes it worse but it does.

Why did I start that story I feel queasy.

Pick your nose with a carrot

I'm dying with a head cold for the last few days,my problem is getting the snot out of my body.How the hell can so much of it be produced? I clear my nose and literally minutes later it's bunged up with the stuff again.
If anybody wants to pig out,I could supply jars of the stuff.

Shoes off, paper in hand having a good root. Sure our lad thinks he's at home ffs.
I would have handed him a tissue.....

Nothing like a good root around the auld nostrils when you're stopped at the traffic lights. Window down and out she goes.
