You know, I really shouldn't have been surprised that spirulina blue green algae tastes like pond scum.

Agreed. Theoretically, you could survive on it, but I'm not sure that I'd want to live, if that's all I had to eat. And it's godawful expensive, at least purchased through the local Whole Foods.

Blue-green algae? Umm... it is pond scum.

...hence the reason I shouldn't have been surprised.

Up here in Wisconsin we have had a couple dogs and a young child spontaneously die from exposure to toxins produced by Blue-Green algae during it's 'bloom.' I'm not exactly sure why all of a sudden there is a 'rash' of deaths from this but perhaps it is media blitz related to the impending phosphate ban in fertilizer. The government works in strange ways.

(random thought)

And, of course, since blue-green alge is ancestral to us all, isn't that cannabalism? Or patricide? Or, considering the taste, (clears throat) sewer-side?
