Tom Cruise’s Gross Lunch: Placenta

Tom Cruise Eats Placenta For Lunch

Tom Cruise is so very gross! I wonder if he ate Suri’s placenta after she was born? Who in their right mind would eat something this bloody and gross?  Oh wait…hehe:

BEIJING, April 18 (Xinhuanet)– Tom Cruise boasted about eating fiancèe Katie Holmes’s placenta when baby Cruise is born, Cruise said in an interview.

    The Mission: Impossible III actor, 43, said: “I thought that would be good. Very nutritious. I am gonna eat the cord and the placenta right there”

    But when it was pointed out it would be a very big meal, he retorted: “OK. Maybe I won’t.”

   Though some claim that eating afterbirth may help prevent post-partum depression, it won’t help the mom if dad eats it.  

Placentophagia, eating the placenta, is practised in many cultures, but it is less common in western society. In 1998 a British TV chef fried a placenta and served it to his guests. Via China View

Hey, maybe Tom decided as a nice gesture to bring a piece of the placenta to Brooke Shields to eat?  I mean it’s probably better than anti depressants for post-partum in Scientology’s eyes.  Yuck!

    As icky as it sounds … it isn’t uncommon. We were going to keep my son’s, bury it, and plant a brith tree for him on it. A connection to the earth. Unfortunately, we forgot it at the hospital.
