Can you eat dirt ?

So, there's this whole case of (depleted) gut microbiom due to antibiotics use and our modern divorce from a Soil-heavy environment.

The bacteria has to be naturally occuring in the environment, and we would be exposed to at least a few grams eaten every day if we didn't have so much concrete and pavement. 

Thoughts ?    Increase gut microbiom diversity by a pinch of ol'Soil ?

We're talking pinches,  not spoonfuls.

These mud cookies don't make any sense.

If they have virtually no nutritional value, then producing them is going to be a net loss. How are they economically viable ?  It would only accelerate starving to death.

there's butter and sugar, so enough to get some energy. I've heard of people doing similar things with sawdust, adding meat, or butter and sugar to make something edible.

I think I've got it..  Potato no peel ..

[yui]

who peels potatoes? you wash them and then boil them in water/steam them, and most of the taste is in the peel anyhow

Tp4 has spent much time among hughmahns, it is customary to peel the spuds.
