Eating dirt is a practice as old as time.

The possible idea is that it protects your gut from pathogens, parasites, and even plant toxins.

I wonder if humans were more protected from plant toxins in prior generations because they ate the vegetables with some level of dirt.

Good question? When I forage for wild cherry and wild berries, I will eat them as is where I found them.
