You jest, but there are also significant numbers of people who advocate eating raw, uncooked meat and organs as well.

Hell, I remember when people drinking urine for its supposed health benefits were extremely rare... now about a decade later, sadly that movement is picking up steam as well.

Americans seem to have a unique and exceptional susceptibility to ... literally anything promoted as a health product, all you have to do is package it in enough psuedo science bs, with either a hefty helping of 'basically all mainstream medical/dietary knowledge is a conspiracy' or spiritual/aspirational bullshit about manifesting your chakras.

This is a country where at least a third of people believe evolution is fake, where a third believe astrology is real.

Sagan's nightmare has come true.
