Many people think of dirt as being,well,dirty!Parents often tell their children not to play in dirt or to get it on their clothes.And there are good reasons to be wary ─ soil often contains bacteria,parasites and pollutants that can make people sick.With so many risks,it is no surprise that many people find geophagy ─ literally the eating of earth or soil ─ unappetizing.
Yet,geophagy is actually a relatively common practice in many parts of the world.Since people tend to be very selective about which soils they eat,the practice has also created a thriving industry.In Nigeria,the village of Uzalla annually processes over 500 tons of its prized soil for sale and consumption in markets hundreds of kilometers away.Geophagy also has a long history in the U.S.,where some eat clay and ship packages of it to relatives far from home.
