This 19 year-old Chinese girl Bao Bao is not like other girls her age, she has a very weird habit – eating soil. She started when she was 7 years old, when at a play ground, she felt the urge to taste the soil on the ground. Ever since she had her first bite, she could not stop eating soil.
“It gives me energy. I can live without rice but not soil. There is only one specific type of soil I would eat, yellowish, soft, and powdery”Â, she says, “How much I eat everyday is really depends on my appetite, usually half pound to two pounds a day to keep me going.”Â
According to her 11 years of dirt eating history, this girl has eaten over 3,000 pounds of soil. Friends are often joking about her boyfriend because the “cheap-date” girlfriend he has.

If she ever leaves her boyfriend, I would love to share dirt and everything else we have in Arizona. I love the smell of dirt and have been dying to have some real dirt to eat. I do not have Pica, I am just drawn to the minerals, smells and everything else Mother Earth has to offer! I also eat Sushi, Mussels, Crab, Lobster and anything else that I crave. She has a very nice smile and what she loves is real. Everyone else is fake, go with the flow retards! This girl is great!

There is actually a condition called pica where people crave dirt, soil and ice because they are lacking iron or other nutrients in their diets.
