I don't think it's all that bad. It's not like it's even remotely as bad as scat eating. Might be related to what drives people to chew on their hair or pick at it. I don't think there's an answer as to why either... I know I've done it a few times before tbh.

 

[GhostWriter24]

Is your friend related to this woman?

 

[Nimajneb]

Yes. Well, not so much anymore, but it is something I did when I was younger.

But why eat scabs? I just don't understand.

Same reason you eat boogers.

My friend is staying the night and I've been watching him pick and eat his scabs.
What is this. Do a lot of people do this or should I bring it up and shut it down?

Someone I used to know did this with his eczema scabs.

Some peope eat their own sperm. Can't be any worse really.

 

[Uni on Everything!]

Scabs are delicious.

 

[davepoobond]

I do it as well. Sorry GAF, I'm a monster

Edit: I'm genuinely surprised how livid some of the responses are. And no, I don't know why I do it, just a habit I've had forever.

is it fuckin tasty or something? you cant chew gum or something instead?

Serious reply, yes I do. Surprised at the disgust in this thread, thought it was fairly common.

I do this too. Suck it prudes

 

[Tabris]

I used to do this when I was like 5 years old.

It's fucked up I did it when 5 years old, I couldn't imagine an adult doing it.

 

[Nudull]

Mmm-MM, that's good cannibalism!

But seriously, no

 

[demolitio]

This sounds like a scene out of Idiocracy or something...Then again, you could say that about a lot of things anymore.

 

[CaviarMeths]

Uh, was the title always "scarabs?"

Because I'll have to change my answer if so.

[akira28]

I only came back because scarabs.

That gif though, woman eating dead foot skin?

that shit is nope.

 

[Milksheikhs]

Thought when I clicked the title that I was gonna post something like "lol totally read that as scabs but it was actually ______."

But nope.

That's disgusting.

 

[samn]

I eat my scabs.

Now I feel like some freak. Go on. Tell me how weird I am.

 

[MicH]

Fuuucckkk that is the grossest thing I've read in quite a while! WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?!

 

[Orbis]

Serious reply, yes I do. Surprised at the disgust in this thread, thought it was fairly common.

Picking them is somewhat common. Eating them not so much. But lots of people bite their nails and bite the skin around their nails, it's not really a whole lot different to that.

 

[chaobreaker]

His thread history is killing me. Holy shit

Tell me about it.

I remember the ones on my legs, with puss seeping out.

Threw up a bit

Scarabs are fine though.

 

[jesu]

DO NOT EAT SCABS

But they are high in protein.

 

[FunkyDealer]

At first I thought this was a thread about a potential African "delicacy", then I thought it must be auto-corrected "crabs"... Then I realized the horror.

 

[GrantDaNasty]

is it fuckin tasty or something? you cant chew gum or something instead?

*shrug* Sorry.

Does the pus enhance the flavour?

 

[Violet_0]

so I guess this thread isn't really about eating Egyptian dung beetles? I'll take my leave

 

[jesu]

If you like mustard it does.

Nice Ninja edit on the title, very sneaky.

And now it's somehow less disgusting.

 

[Messofanego]

I don't think it's all that bad. It's not like it's even remotely as bad as scat eating.

The fact that you're comparing it to eating your own shit is telling how off the mark this behaviour is.

 

[Grazzt]

This thread makes me wanna throw up

 

[Dead Man]

Eat to live, don't live to eat. Huh? Huh? *nods*

Love that movie.





He was licking me!!

 

[Dryk]

wow, very shocked we'd have scab eaters on this forum. Very. Shocked.

People with a common mental illness on a forum? Who'd have seen that coming?

(I have OCD and I pick scabs. Can't remember if I eat them but I have in the past.)

legit surprised that we've gone two pages without anyone defending the health benefits of eating scabs

Nah even picking scabs isn't healthy. I've had so many wounds last longer than they have any right to and a few scars to prove it.
