    It kinda looks like not-redheaded Conan O’Brien invented modern glitter.

    Did the poop come with a certificate of authenticity?

    That’s great. No need to murder poor creatures for leather. But I won’t be surprised if environmental activists and global warming alarmists begin cactus activisim.

    Lucky for Henry he has passed away. I would’ve filled his car with glitter.

    My wife’s aunt used to run out into the street and clean up after a delivery horse had left a “package” in front of her house. She used it for fertilizer in her garden.

    the fact that someone gathered horse poop and devised a way to make money from it is not surprising.

    what IS surprising is that there are individuals out there that would fork over 200 for a jar of horse poop..

    On second thought, I guess that isn’t surprising either

    Hopefully they are using those stinking pear cactus, and not the Saguaro cactus.

    Will cacti become popular again? Some of them are listed as endangered species.

    Simple way to make leather from cacti:

    Remove the thorns. Feed cacti to cows. Kill cows. Turn hide into leather.

    Oh, wait, you mean turn cacti into leather without involving cows or other animals? Impossible, as leather is defined as “a material made from the skin of an animal by tanning or a similar process.” They may be making a “leather-like” product but not actual leather.

    And one of the most popular tourist items in Alaska are swizzle sticks with a moose nugget (poop) on the end. Lacquered, but still…

    Is cactus “leather” harder to make than a “silk purse” out of a sow’s ear?

    Before their successful leath-tier business, Veladre and Cazarez attempted to create a cheaper glitter substitute for Pinatas made of a giant silver charm they found visiting Kentucky. Then they accidentally stepped on poop on their way back home.

    Please don’t use glitter. Microbeads, plastic water bottles, etc. are currently almost impossible to avoid, but people are trying alternatives. Also, please don’t release balloons into the air (they endanger animals and litter the countryside).

    Leather made from cacti? Cattle (and animal lovers) rejoice! Break out the champagne – the good stuff!
