A young Chinese woman is undergoing medical tests in Beijing
after dining on dirt for 11 years. The 18-year-old from Inner
Mongolia was taken to Beijing by her parents, who wanted to
know why she finds dirt appetizing.

She told Chinese television she started the habit when she was
just 7 years old when she consumed dirt that was attached to
the roots of grass. Yellow mud is her favorite.Her eating habits
have caused problems for the family's next-door neighbor,who
has a mud roof.

Chinese television reported that the woman can't help herself
and keeps eating the roof.

Are you aware of the nutritional value of "fast food"?

how about this
fast food actaully causes your body to draw upon the bodies mineral reserves that it then uses in the digestive process--thus your body is slowly being drained of those minerals resulting in pitted teeth, bone and joint deterioration and a host of other stuff--so yes-dirt-full of minerals etc is probably better than fast food.

the basic problem with fast food is that it contains little or any of the natural live enzymes needed in the bodies digestive process.
that is a gross simplification but valid nonetheless.
