Islamic Body Declares Cat Poop Coffee Clean Enough For Muslims

One lump or two?
An Islamic body gave the thumbs up to Muslims who wish to enjoy an occasional cup of cat poop coffee.
Breitbart reported:
Indonesia’s top Islamic body declared Tuesday that Muslims can drink civet coffee—the world’s most expensive coffee, which is extracted from the dung of civet cats.
A preacher recently suggested the beverage might not be “halal”—or religiously approved—because its unusual provenance makes it unclean. But after a long discussion Tuesday, the influential Indonesian Ulema Council said that the coffee, known locally as Kopi Luwak, could be consumed as long as the beans were washed.Kopi Luwak, which takes it name from the Indonesian word for civets, is made from hard beans that have been eaten by the nocturnal critters and then fermented in their stomachs before being pooped out and roasted. Civet cats are mongoose-like animals.
It’s highly prized for its smooth flavor and bitterless aftertaste, sometimes fetching well over $200 a pound ($440 per kilogram) online.
“Kopi Luwak can be declared ‘halal’ after passing through a washing process,” said Maruf Amien, acting head of the council. “Producing, selling and drinking it is allowed.”
It’s stories like this that make you wonder who was the first person who came up with the brilliant idea to drink this stuff?

And it’s stories like this which give us great insight into the Muslim mind. To actually sit around and discuss this “situation” and then to do some “scholarly” research is to tell a lot.
These people are nuts!

The Quranimals never cease to amaze me in depravity, lack of morals and pure evil.
“It’s stories like this that make you wonder who was the first person who came up with the brilliant idea to drink this stuff ?”
I’m guessing it’s the same guy who said “Hey, I’ll try that oval thing what come out that chicken’s arse.”
Win one, lose one.
Nobama commented:
I’d agree cat poop coffee is clean enough for muslims to drink. Look at how they live, and the things they do. Yep drinking cat poop good enough for them.

It’s actually somewhat amusing watching the Islamists twist themselves into pretzels. All to drink cat poop coffee.
Great title, Jim!

OOO OOO, I see a business opportunity, Name your cat Civet and start selling to the good people of Detroitistan and Dearbornabad. Give the people what they want. Beter yet, when is starbucks going to jump on this train. How about all of those multicultural college kids and lefties. The next lefty that come to my house will get a wonderful aromatic cup of Joe. Joe’s poop. (Joes the neighbors cat)
JKB commented:
“…could be consumed as long as the beans were washed.”
You know what this means? Somewhere there are people who believe that is you think the civet coffee is great after it’s been cleaned, you should taste it natural without all that post-processing.
I’d have to say that out on a hunting party, one guy was really having a bad day without his coffee. So his friends tired of him acting like Betty White, said “Here, Here’s your damn coffee.” “Where’d you find the beans?” “We’ll tell you later.” Thus cat crap coffee became the latest way to scam coffee snobs. Much better than free trade labels.

There you go, poo poo-ing those poor benighted muslim dregs!

The beans may be washed but watch out for that left hand holding the cup!
Ginger commented:
“Let me be clear” I would never drink that stuff!

I think it’s one of those great contributions to the world. The NASA outreach program is already working!

Complete with video to sing to:
Well they say it comes from cat poop
and it tastes so very good
you gotta wash it off clean
Then you make a cup of coffee
Imam says it’s all OK
Don’t wanna know where its been
Cat poop coffee
Cat poop coffee
Well they argued back and forth
They even read the ancient logs
But no they could not decide
Until one who was so wise
said it was cats and not from dogs
So we got nothing to hide
Cat poop coffee
Cat poop coffee
Cat poop coffee
Cat poop coffee
We have that wisdom
to let us drink
Our cat poop coffee today
You know you gotta
it ain’t so strange
Just ask the goats on the range,

They can also have sex with goats, so is this any surprise.
daryl commented:
Good to know this. I’ll bag the gleanings from my cats’ litter box and they can let me know where to send them.
I do wonder though….. would it be better to roast it first?… or no and if they prefer dark roast or lite.

Since coffee goes straight to your central nervous system – it really is true that Muslims have sh!t for brains!
Sorry if a repost – no time to read all posts yet…

OK, so let me get this right, you could be sitting beside someone drinking coffee and they could turn to you and say “man this is some good s#@t” and they are being literal, what a strange world.
Sandy commented:
I say LET EM DRINK CAT POOP and let the Libs join them for a Cat Poop fiesta. Party Hearty guys…
averagemelon commented:
Wouldn’t it be a whole lot easier to soak the beans in hydrochloric acid for a bit, wash them off and then brew? Or does the poop impart its own delicious flavor that cannot be chemically duplicated?
I thought Muslim were supposed to be advanced in the science department (according to Obama and NASA).
Good God, I need to think about something more important.

………………
1) Someone who was starving to death. Simple as that. Ah *relieved* that it was waay better than expected.
2) Other option was someone who hated his neighbor invited him over for coffee and served him crap bean coffee without his neighbor knowing, to be mean and mock him, but was shocked to discover the guy praising his excellent coffee for the rest of the week.
(for the non-horticulturalistists … as averagemelon #25 mentioned, many seeds MUST be partially digested to germinate – the stomach acid wears off the outer hard casing. This way, seeds are spread around the forest or plains instead of dropping all in one place and rooting there in overcompetitive clumps.)
wanumba commented:
Thinking about it further (stop! stop!) probably came from the witchdoctors who spend their time collecting and brewing awful concoctions from really vile oddball things – and got rich on that one.
Seriously.
Indonesia is Asia, many have been converted to Islam, but it’s an overlayer on traditional local beliefs – syncrenistic. Wait for the more “pure” Arab clerics have a “cow” when they hear the local committee approved it.
A little tension there.
mrt commented:
“Indonesia’s top Islamic body declared Tuesday that Muslims can drink civet coffee—the world’s most expensive coffee, which is extracted from the dung of civet cats.”
So in other words, Indonesia’s top Islamic body told muslims to eat (and drink) sh*t.

Chisum commented:
Remember the childrens book “Stone Soup”?
Perhaps some enterprising Muslim could rewrite it and title it “Cat Crap Stew”.
Might even win an award.
They could launch it into space as part of the NASA Muslim Outreach Program.

How about “Green Eggs and Cat Crap”?

Disgusting. Not the coffee–the commentary. Richard John Neuhaus would never have allowed this kind of billingsgate back when he ran First Things. You people should be ashamed.
I’ve heard of civet cat coffee, and have always wanted to try it. Sounds kinda yucky, but the normal washing and roasting that all coffee beans get would certainly kill any bacteria or parasites, so I can’t see any reason to fear health consequences. And in any case, why on earth do some here see this as an occasion to hurl gratuitous insults at Muslims? As a Christian, I find this behavior sickening. You guys need to take a long look at yourselves.
Imagine what Anchoress would say…
marybel commented:
Merely touching a dog requires some sort of ritual cleansing (a Muslim taxi driver just about had a conniption because my dog approached him when he dropped us off at the house), but eating beans that emerge from a cat’s anus is okay. Whew!
The Crusades, at least the First, were a success.
Welcome back to the 7th Century.
