Would you eat your own placenta?

Story I heard from England whe I was a lot younger.
A woman gave birth and her mother in law fried up the placenta with onions and the whole family sat down and ate it. I think I'd be asking for extra onions, lots and lots of extra onions. ![]() If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.
Well it's my wife's own fault if a predator finds her placentas and tracks it back to her, just because she didn't feel like eating it. There's only so much I can do for her and our child, you know.

Rhinos have actually been hunted to extinction for the same reason, and Siberian tigers are extremely close. Appearently eating parts of the tiger is considered in traditional Chinese medicine to be equivalent to having Viagra, even though I have not heard Viagra is hard to come by there. So for the possibility of one improved jerk off before the monitor it is judged worthwhile to advance by a Sizeable distance a species' journey towards oblivion. Also, despite incipient modernity, it appears traditional medicine is still held in something like awe by many in China, where asking for proof of efficacy demonstrates a lack of faith that would in itself anger the gods of traditional medicine and deprive one of the ineffable but unmeasurable benefits of traditional medicine.
If probably eat a placenta if it were cooked properly.
I always found it a bit odd to kill an animal for something that will grow back. Especially if you know anything about genetics.
No, it would be a bit old now.

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)
No... if someone one day manages to completely fix nature's fuckups: I will not be the one to eat my transplanted placenta. Thing's a damn hero... it's wrong to eat one's heroes.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
