The headline I had to click on today: “Scientists make cheese from human toe jam”

Selfmade is an exhibit that hosts a number of cheeses crafted from cells collected from human bodies. Part art, part science, it’s the work of Christina Agapakis and Prof. Sissel Tolaas, who sampled microbes from human mouths, toes, navels, and even tears to craft a set of 11 unique cheeses.

*bleh*

Part of me – most likely the part that is lactose intolerant – doesn’t even want to know what these smell like, much less taste like.
