Can you picture enjoying a meal and then having your food unexpectedly covered with urine? That is just what occurred to a woman in Beijing, China, who surprised many on social media by sharing the strange story. You may be wondering why all the commotion. After all, little mishaps involving kids are not unusual. The fact that her family proceeded to eat the dinner while peeing, however, really astounded everyone.

The event happened when her son, who was being carried by his grandmother next to the dining table, accidentally peed on the family’s breakfast, which consisted of steamed buns, eggs, and veggies, according to the South China Morning Post (SCMP). After “proudly” filming the occasion, the mother uploaded it to the internet.

She did not disclose her son’s age or family history, but the post generated a lot of interest and a flurry of responses. “So, did you guys end up eating that food?” was one of the many people who voiced their incredulity. “Yes, we did eat it,” the mother said, adding that the family continued their regular meal since the baby’s grandparents didn’t object.

The mother said in her article that the kid seldom ever uses disposable diapers at home because she feels they disrupt their natural habits. We almost never use disposable diapers on him throughout the day; instead, we often simply use a cloth or leave him naked. Since it is preferable to not disturb the infant when he is peeing, we do not cover it,” she added. Additionally, she took a minute to compliment her photos, stating, “Mum has pretty good snapshot skills.”

Social media users were shocked when the mother verified that her family had eaten the lunch in spite of it being covered in pee.

Someone questioned, “Is this real? You kept eating food that had been saturated with urine?

The whole home would smell like pee, wouldn’t it? Another person said, “This family has truly opened my eyes.”

Another viewer said, “As a mother myself, I find this hard to believe.”

According to the study, young boys’ pee is believed to possess extraordinary qualities in traditional Chinese culture. It is said to increase vitality, lower fevers, and even ward off ill luck or evil spirits.

Boys under the age of ten are thought to have very strong urine, with the strongest urine being thought to come from the morning before the child becomes one month old. Based on this notion, a delicacy known as “urine eggs” is even found in southern China. Urine is obtained from young children, often in schools, and used to boil eggs in order to produce it. This meal is said to guard against heat stroke in the summer and help avoid fatigue in the spring.
