Beavers' secretions can create taste similar to vanilla in baked goods
STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Sept. 15 (UPI) -- Anal secretions from beavers can be used in baked goods to create a taste that resembles vanilla, The Swedish National Food Agency said.
The agency confirmed the use of the anal passages after rumors about the beaver's secretions circulated on the Internet, The Local.se reported.
"Natural aromas can be extracts from plants, fungi, and in some cases animals." Ulla Beckman Sundh, an agency representative reported.
But she said the beaver will likely not become a common source of vanilla, as the supply is limited because the beaver is not bred.
Beavers were wiped out in Sweden in the 19th century, but the population has grown to 100,000 after the animal was imported, The Local.se said.
So. A bunch of Swedish scientists were studying anal secretions from beavers on one of them said, "Hey guys, lets make cookies!"

Oh no, no. I may experiment a lot, but vanilla beaver but fudge is not something I'm willing to try.

I'm with Mr Mannn on this one. Nothing that I know came out of a beaver's ass is going anywhere near my mouth. You've got to draw the line somewhere.

Bee vomit is the best of all sweeteners.
But in this case I'm with Chris.

IIRC, it is also considered an aphrodisiac by the same culture. I'm still not eating bird spit.

Probably the same culture that enjoys rhinoceros dick for the same reason.

Well I haven't heard of a massive shortage of vanilla beans anywhere, soooooo kinda weird these guys are looking for a substitute. Weirder they thought to look up a beavers arse! :mental:

Before someone beats me to it, finish this sentence..."Be kind to...".
-
My wife don't taste like vanilla. :???:

The first guy to eat beaver shit doesn't surprise me. People will do any fool thing.
It's the second guy I worry about.
"Try this beaver poop. It tastes like vanilla cake!"
"Umm.... ok."

Some beaver secretions are perfectly fine. :whistling:

Did you know that in some parts of the world the urine of virgins is collected, boiled down and the Christal salts used as a birth control for the woman in need ?
Then the very high price of perfume with a tad amount of whale vomit or the musk glands of some varmet are now sitting on some ones skin causing one to ask, " What is that wonderful smell you are wearing" ?What fun.
Me I found a cheap perfume that smelled of lemons, I loved it as did others around me. Gave them the munchies I believe but this perfume was discontinued after a couple of years.
Still looking for a perfume that smells like Apple Pie --The heck with these foreign smells, meet a man that smells like char broiled steak and perhaps Apple Cider, much more interesting to be around them then a man slathered up with some kind of after shave.
I would have gone bonkers over a man I met that smelled of fresh mowed Hay or grass forget the males , those men with the smell of colon that smells to high heaven, Don't the Guys say if it smells of colon to leave it alone?
