lol. it's a habit. they get used to picking their nose and eating the boogers and therefore they cant help themselves whenever they do pick their nose. plus, your boogers are part of you. where else are you gonna place your boogers after you pick your nose? i myself would place it in the bin and wash my hands afterwards, but sometimes, usually when im out, i feel that the only thing i can do is eat my boogers because i have to where else to put it. i know that it may sound disgusting, but it's one of those habits i have when im not at home.

appears like he desires some remedy. some previous trend whack to the back of the authentic remedy. ask him what he's doing that for. convey it to gentle. Say "cease with the booger eatin'. you're not from now on 3." talk about to him that surely children munch their boogers.

that's a great question because i have seen lots of people do this, from children to adults.. and it's gross! Here are some ideas on it:
1) maybe it tastes good
2) they don't know what else to do with it
3) they have a salt deficiency
4) they are hungry?
ugh, I'm getting grossed out just thinking about this..thanks a lot :-)

I don't partake in that activity because its gross, but one time some medical folks did a study, and it said that people who eat their own nose fixin's were boosting their immune system, sort of like getting a flu shot.

For the younger people, it is just a experiment, like a rite of passage of childhood. For the older people, it is just an acquired taste from too much experimenting in childhood.
LOL...I just made that up!
