Ok, Eating your baby's placenta?!

This is something I do NOT like, love, or need! I heard a little bit about this story on the radio the other morning and wanted to look it up. They were saying that this lady actually had recipes for dishes with placenta. "After Chrissy Schilling had her first baby over the weekend, her twin sister Kathy cooked up the placenta and they had a feast. They put it on pasta and on a sandwich. They even put pictures of the meal on Facebook!"My question for them is, why did Kathy eat her twin sister's placenta???? What was the benefit for her? That is taking it a little too far. I love this quote from Chrissy, "The placenta became a simple piece of meat for cooking. And no babies were harmed in the process. That's my take on it." and this one from Kathy, "It's a good 6 lbs of meat that's just chock full of lingering blood, vitamins, and hormones that can still in part be transferred upon eating -- even through cooking. When I cooked it, I cleaned the surface blood off of it, but kept anything that seaped out of it into the sauce. I know I was feeling pretty giddy while eating, so maybe that was some of the happy hormones effects taking place." Well, they say that eating the placenta can help postpartum depression and is rich in iron and hormones that benefit the mother. I'm no expert on this, but I know that this isn't something that I would want to do. I especially would not want to eat my sister's placenta!! I just checked out the comments on the Mom Logic site, where this article can be found, and everyone has been grossed out by this story. I thought there might be a couple of supporters, but none that have commented yet.
And again, why was her sister "feeling pretty giddy while eating"??? To each his own, so I won't judge. Just thought that this story was crazy and I needed to share it!! Please let me know if you have eaten a placenta, I would love to know.
