Horrible facts

Ok, I’ve done some very important research and found these weird and disgusting facts that you can tell everyone…..but i bet they don’t believe that they are for real!

Guess what Ancient Romans used to dye their hair with?  Something white and sticky that comes out of pigeons bottoms, yes, pigeon poo!  How gross! 

Speaking of poo, did you know that beetle poo is called a ‘twissle’?!

Mmm, feeling hungry?  Fancy some hedge-hog flavoured chips?  Yes, apparently they do exist but I’ve never seen a shop selling them!  And in

South-East Asia some people eat deep friend insects instead of chips, yum yum, crispy cockroach……Arrgghh!  I just read something really horrible!  In Sardinia (that’s an island off

Italy) you can eat a cheese that has live maggots in it!  They leave the cheese in the sun so that the flies lay their eggs on it and when the maggots hatch out it’s ready to eat!  That is making me feel really sick!Ug, that’s all the disgusting facts I can take right now I think but if you want more check out the quiz books in the library, they’ll be in the junior non-fiction section 793.73, if you can’t find any, find a librarian and ask them! (plus see if they believe you about the facts!!) Eleanor
