Despite your mother’s lectures, picking your nose and eating what you
find may have some health benefits, according to a biochemistry professor Scott
Napper of the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon.
"By consuming those pathogens caught within the mucus, could that
be a way to teach your immune system about what it's surrounded with?" Napper
asks his classes?

students that snot has a sugary taste and that may be a signal to the body to
consume it and derive information for the immune system.
Yes, but has it been approved by Health Canada and the Canadian Food
Inspection Agency?
And has it got a bilingual label and a best before date?
