Human blood is a valid substitute for eggs in baking.
Human (and animal) blood and eggs can also both be used in place of Styrofoam to gelify fuel for molotovs.
TIL. So many options to make a molotov nastier. Stinky rotten egg fires!
What about soap flakes?
I learned this from the reverse, as eggs are a valid substitute for human blood in sacrifices.

So is semen iirc.
There's no way. It doesn't taste like eggs at all. Does it? I've never tasted raw egg before
For it to be a substitute, it doesn't have to taste the exact same. It just has to have similar properties.
Nice
Huh, so that's why filloas de sangre are a thing. I always found it weird but it makes sense now. TIL.
Is it, though? I get that they have a similar protein composition or whatever, but there's no way the taste is anywhere near the same. Then again, I guess I've never eaten fully raw eggs before (not sure if a semi-runny sunny side up on toast counts, heh).
But you have eaten raw human bloodโฝ
You've never tasted your own blood from like bloody lips and stuff?
Oh, yes, I guess I didn't think of that
I did in a shot. It doesn't taste like egg.
