Cat Dung Coffee!

A department store in London has started selling cat dung coffee for $100 a cup. Why is it called cat dung coffee? Because, the coffee beans have been eaten by cats and collected from the cat dung.

Kopi Luwak, as it is called, is produced in the jungles of Indonesia. The ripe coffee cherries are eaten by a variety of jungle cat and then collected from the dung of the cat. It is believed that the digestive process of the cat alters the flavor of the coffee bean. And, since this bean is not mass produced, it is very expensive. How ever, if the price and popularity of this coffee remains, it will only be a matter of time before someone comes up with farm raised cat dung coffee.

And that’s the straight poop.
