Sometimes I am genuinely amazed by the stuff that people believe. I suppose that if you rely on medical products that appear to have been named by the people behind ICanHazCheeseburger.com, you might look upon The Vegetarian Times with the same regard that actual scientists have for actual medical journals. What I don’t understand is why you would be surprised to find poop in your colon.
“Anti-toxins” sound almost like they might be a real thing! If toxins are poisonous, are anti-toxins good for you? Do heavy metals really accumulate in my digestive tract in little nuggets of the sort that can be rubbed, scrubbed and scraped from my intestinal walls? How do tiny seashells distinguish natural hormones from artificial ones or, for that matter, bad bacteria from good bacteria? Is “100% Organic Mineral Supplement” even a possible thing?
I am no wiser after visiting the Web site. The makers of Colon Cleanz would have me believe that sinusitis and halitosis are caused by having a dirty colon.
The claims made in this pamphlet are so outrageously strange that I regard the entire thing with a sort of detached hilarity, marred only by the suspicion that someone, somewhere, is actually going to buy the product.


What if it was bacon-flavoured? Admit it, you’re tempted.
As far as the “long pig” story goes, my colon is bacon-flavoured!
I love their liberal use of the letter Z.
