Now I know, I know, I know... EWWWW!!! But let's get honest for a second, who among us has not tried a booger as a child.
Our mom and dad always told us, not to leave boogers everywhere so we had to come up with a solution RIGHT ? and how could we leave nintendo game or reveal our hiding location while hide-and go seeking ???
Animals munch too! So naturally we need to find out, what exactly is in boogers, how many calories and are they healthy in any way...
What I found was the following : nasal mucus, what I refer to as boogers is commonly swallowed by most animals. In the lamest terms possible : Boggers tend to form because nose is the filter of the body.
Boogers are natures VACCINE! They introduce low amounts of pathogens from the air to your body - Remember that nasty kid who always acted like a slob but NEVER GOT SICK ??
Nose slime is told to consist of sugar particles and protein particles, but there is no real "recipe" for a booger.
In conclusion, I might not recommend going around and telling people to eat boogers, nor would I eat one myself at a meeting in work, but heck, if you find a kid doing that MAYBE, just maybe don't snap on a poor bastard and let him much away.
