Help with a new recipe...?

Question

I saw on Real Sex on HBO one time where a woman was cooking her placenta because of its high iron content. Do you know where I can buy some? I've got a killer recipe for a pasta dish, but need the main ingredient to top it off.

Answer 1

You are a sicko...but I must be also, because I actually went to GOOGLE and typed in recipes for placenta. Oh please...

These are from 'Mothering Magazine' - September 1983:

Work on the basis that each placenta weighs approximately 1/6 of the baby's weight. To prepare a placenta, cut the meat away from the membranes with a sharp knife. Discard the membranes.
