made with real poo!

I forgot an important detail from my zoo outing last week!

After playing with the animals, we decided to stop in the gift shop where Zach pointed out [and I promptly fell in love with] an assortment of paper products with the phrase "MADE WITH REAL POO!" on it. The one that caught Zach's eye was a mini-journal with an adorable panda on the front.



The following is from the description enclosed with the journal:

"Believe it or not, what you are looking at is a totally unique gift made from odorless and naturally recycled panda poo poo!!!
You see, the Giant Pandas from China eat lots of bamboo and because bamboo has lots of fibers and much of it goes undigested by the pandas, their poo poo is a great material to make paper from. How cool is that?
We collet the poo, we rinse, clean, grind and mix it into a pulp and make large sheets of paper which we use to craft these incredibly unique gift items!
To be exact, the entire exterior of this item including the cover and inset pages are made from panda poo paper. The smooth pages insides have some natural mulberry and pineapple fibers mixed in with the poop as well which results in smoother pages for writing." 

Isn't this AWESOME?!?!?!? 

If I've piqued your interest at all, you can find out more on their website. They have gift items made from the poop of all different kinds of animals.

  1. I have finally caught up on reading your blogs and realized you must have a boyfriend named Zach. Since you mention him quite often you must be enjoying being with him.
    Also, I can see why you like the Poo paper.
    Looking forward to seeing you on Easter and if you want to you may bring Zach with you also.
    Love, Gammers
