Just consider the "gross out" factor!
« on: February 12, 2009, 09:14:26 AM »
A Hindu extremist group (who else) wants to market a soft-drink made from cow urine:

QUOTE
Does your Pepsi lack pep? Is your Coke not the real thing? India's Hindu nationalist movement apparently has the answer: a new soft drink made from cow urine.

The bovine brew is in the final stages of development by the Cow Protection Department of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), India's biggest and oldest Hindu nationalist group, according to the man who makes it.

Om Prakash, the head of the department, said the drink – called "gau jal", or "cow water" – in Sanskrit was undergoing laboratory tests and would be launched "very soon, maybe by the end of this year".

"Don't worry, it won't smell like urine and will be tasty too," he told The Times from his headquarters in Hardwar, one of four holy cities on the River Ganges. "Its USP will be that it's going to be very healthy. It won't be like carbonated drinks and would be devoid of any toxins."

The part about being "devoid of any toxins" really does it for me!

I guess our eating steaks is even more repugnant to them than drinking a cows urine, detoxified or not! Thinking.gif

The toxins are what makes the steak taste good aren't they?   Devilish2.gif
