"Put more simply, the product is dirt—four-and-a-half ounces of it, sealed in a sleek black plastic baggie and sold for $110 plus shipping. Visitors to the Black Oxygen Organics website, recently taken offline, were greeted with a pair of white hands cradling cups of dirt like an offering. “A gift from the Ground,” it reads. “Drink it. Wear it. Bathe in it.”

BOO, which “can be taken by anyone at any age, as well as animals,” according to the company, claims many benefits and uses, including improved brain function and heart health, and ridding the body of so-called toxins that include heavy metals, pesticides, and parasites.


Teams of sellers in these private Facebook groups claim that, beyond cosmetic applications, BOO can cure everything from autism to cancer to Alzheimer’s disease. Conveniently in these times, BOO proponents say it also protects against and treats Covid-19, and can be used to “detox” the newly vaccinated, according to posts viewed by NBC News."

I've actually heard of starving kids fed clay chunks cut into cubes like familiar (to us) fudge but this really takes the cake!

And at a steep price of $110 a bag, I'd call this one 'pay dirt' for sure.

It's almost as good as getting a spot in exclusive Mormon heaven for only 1/10 of your income.

A nevermo co worker just asked if this was the latest MLM from Utah. Legitimate question, right?

People have been known to eat dirt (geophagia) due to malnutrition, hookworm disease, anemia, and various other diseases and conditions. Generally it doesn’t treat whatever disease the practitioner is suffering from.

I have it on good authority that if you eat dried buffalo chips from the Dakotas you won't be visited by Cheech and Chong.

Well, if anti vaxers are determined to eat livestock dewormer, might as well eat dirt so the dewormer willkill the worms in the dirt. Makes perfect sense-right?

Here's a report that anti-vaxxers are scheduling fake appointments with pharmacies, so that parents who do want the vaccine for their children face greater challenges in getting appointments.

I'd be much more willing to take the vaccine than to eat dirt.

It’s an intelligence test.
Survival of the fittest.
If you’re dumb enough to refuse the vaccine, when it’s been tested, approved and proven to prevent you from dying from a pandemic, you probably don’t need to be contributing to the gene pool, get tf out of the pool!

Goes double for idiots who eat dirt or take horse dewormer, Clorox, of shove a lightbulb up their ass.

The unvaccinated could have plenty of time to eat dirt.
