I was talking to mum, and the subject of afterbirth came up somehow o_o
Grandma apparently used to take all the placentas of the women she helped deliver babies and cook them up at home and share them with neighbours. She was a nurse not a midwife btw.
So apparently she would dehydrate them and put it in congee (it seems the Chinese like to hide things in congee. Mum admitted that she used to hide frog-meat in my congee as a child o.o)
What do you think of eating the Placenta? It's apparently gaining popularity here as well, there was a programme on TV where they showed mothers getting the placenta, putting some food colouring on it and making a pretty picture to keep by sort of smooshing the placenta onto some art paper, then washing and eating it.
Would you eat a placenta?
