kqedscience: Why Is The World’s Largest Foundation Buying Fake Poop? “Last week, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation announced that it’s purchasing 50 pounds of fake poop. A practical joke? No, not in the least. Nor is this synthetic poop a plastic replica of the real thing; it’s an organic version made from soybeans. The Gates Foundation will use it to test high-tech commodes at their Reinvent the Toilet Fair next week.”
