Did you know that deer poops are edible? :eek: Watched an episode of Man vs. Wild last night, the dude picked up a handful of deer droppings and ate it. He said that since deer doesn't extract all the nutrients from their foods so their waste is nutritious. On one episode, he found a dead camel in the desert. Cut open the stomach, pulled out a big chunk of feces from the camel intestine, squeezed it and drank the liquid that came out of it. :eek: If a nuclear holocaust happened? coack roaches and this dude will survive. Gotta be the craziest sob on the planet.

That's soo funny and I too can think of a lot of things to eat before I had to resort to that level.

I thought this was going to be about milkweed pods, or stinging nettle.:D

I got a simple solution: don't put yourself in a predicament where you could be stranded in the middle of nowhere! Hiking Mt. Everest would be fun, but I would rather do it from the comfort of my couch and television, without the risk of frostbite.

I've been camping where we wanted to stay a few days longer and knew we would be out of food for the next three days, but we didn't eat any junk. We might have made some oyster soup with boiled saltwater :eek:

Too much of Man VS Wild is staged to give the guy any credit.

Survivor Man is a different story all together.

I lost a five dollar bet to my buddy that he wouldn't eat a deep fried June bug. Does that count?:p

Re: Things that you didn't know were edible

That reminds me of one of my stories. About 10 years ago my best friend and i took another friend dear hunting for the first time. This guy Jim wanted to learn everything from tracking to tree stand placement etc. Now Jim is the most gullible laid back person i know. Well we set him up on his second time out scouting. I had bought a pack of raisonetts and put them in my pocket and while scouting i bent down at a pile of deer poop picked it up showed Jim how to tell if it was fresh. When he bent down to pick some up i pulled out the raisonetts and put one in my mouth. Told Jim if its moist and chewy its real fresh. After some non belief on his part of what i just did and some peersuasion on ours he was going to try some. Well just as he went to try it i had to stop him and let him in on the joke. The look on his face was priceless. The three of us still talk about it and have a good laugh.
