> The Royal College of Midwives (RCM) said there was not enough evidence for the organisation to "either support or not support" placentophagy as there had not been enough research on the health benefits.
On the one hand I didn't want to post this because it kinda grossed me out and might ruin someone's day or something -- on the other hand, I "totally could see it being a thing in Asia", just because of the other powdered animal stuff; but wasn't aware of it being a thing, period, and I guess that would describe many people. And some of the sentences in that article are really quite something, oh my.
I already did? OP said they placenta eating is a thing in China, and

so I shared my, uhh, information, instead of just letting that stereotype kinda linger.
I didn't see OPs original rant, it's been flagged. I'm assuming there was something in there about how awful Chinese people are because placenta?
As far as it being a thing.. I'm pretty sure historically it's a really big thing. Protein is expensive for subsistence farmers. Too bad OP lost their lunch over it
Pointing out the crimes of the PRC is not disrespectful.
Except, perhaps, to the PRC.
> Chinese people are human beings.
Nobody's saying they're not.
