Everyone's talking about this like it's impractical. This is just the beginning! Scientific advancements often start as completely impractical processes!

I'm positive that over time, this waste-to-cookie process will be refined and refined until it includes not only plastic waste, but human waste as well.

The potential is there! We just need to collect the billionaires and get started!

I'm like 80% sure billionaires are already edible

Yes but so is powdered wood pulp. You gotta add that plastic, yeasty flavoring!

Like all meat, it's primarily the accompanying sauces and gravy that makes them edible.

human waste = poop.
waste humans = billionaires.
