A 78-year-old woman in northern China has eaten an estimated 10 tonnes of soil over the past 70 years, a news report said today.

Hao Fenglan, from Zhangwu county, Liaoning province, developed a taste for mud and dirt at the age of eight and says she feels physical discomfort if she does not eat a meal of dirt at least once every day.

The diet has done her little apparent harm and she is in good health, according to the South China Morning Post.

I ate some dirt when I was little, never got into it though, all gritty and tasted bad. But, ah, to each their own I guess. blink.gif
