Eat my placenta?

I have an app on my iPhone with a baby forum that I browse and ask questions on a lot... and yesterday a woman posted on there asking if anyone knew how much it costs to keep your placenta after birth and have it turned into pills to take. It's like prenatal vitamins for after birth made from your insides! Then she asked if that was super expensive, if anyone knew how she could COOK her placenta and just eat it!!!

I'm all for people making their own choices and if you wanna be 'all natural' and eat your own insides I guess that's your business.... but, EW! Come on, if you've seen what a placenta looks like you would know how horribly disgusting the idea of eating it is! Even taking it in pill form, just seems too Hannibal Lector style for me!

Maybe I could sell my TWO placentas to that lady and she can eat mine too! ha ha... but no, not really ;)
