You have been warned. 

Now we all love the Japanese for the great things they bring us: sushi, samurai, anime, violent tv game shows, the list goes on and on. . . . However, if you look hard enough, there are some contributions that should be better left undiscovered.  Unfortunately, I’m not so kind as to keep this information from you.  I share because I care and today’s contribution is from a dude called Ninoma. 

I would describe this guy as a cross between a scientific documentary and the guys from Jackass.   His latest challenge is to create salt from his own sweat.  To him, it’s seems quite simple:  extract the salt from your sweat.   First step was to eat good foods - don’t want your salt to contain impurities.

Next was to work up a good sweat:

Running proved not to provide enough sweat to extract and create his salt, so he tried smothering himself in blankets.

Still, this did not produce enough sweat!  He thought it out and decided to go to a sauna!

It worked!  He got a glassfull of his own salty essense. 

 Dayam!  Thats a lot of sweat but it kinda looks like calpis.  Wonder how it tastes?

Taste test:

Iyaaaaa!!!

After pouring his sweat into a pan and boiling off the liquids,

Sizzle. . .

 Looking yummy. . .

he is left with salt:

Kind of brownish due to the human factor.

His original Japanese post is located here.  Stay tuned for part 2 if you dare. . .
