The kelp itself is harvested by giant scissors which cut the growth within three feet of the surface, do not seriously injure the magnificent treelike...
...cellulose-digesting bacteria are of the aciduric group, akin to the Lactobacillus acidophilus of Bulgarian buttermilk, which (some scientists think) helps un usual numbers of Balkan rustics to fill themselves full of years. Taken in liquid form, the bacterial cultures taste like chocolate syrup. They become permanently established among the intestinal flora in about a month. Cost: $2 per person...
