It's true...some scientists are saying that eating boogers is like vaccination. Thoughts? :|

There are studies that say you should let your kids eat their boogers because it builds their immune systems.

Exactly, and I agree...baby elephants eat dung to get their digestive systems colonized with the proper flora as well. It's just that eating boogers is...well...naaaaaaaaaaasty.

That doesn't really make sense. Usually if you have boogers, it's because you already have a virus.

Your "boogers" are trapping bacteria and pollen from entering your lung system.... Why would it be good to eat them?
