I wonder who discovered it

What's more interesting is, beaver castor sacs also used as a strawberry and vanilla flavour substitute, approved by FDA.

Sperm

Oh god...

Whale vomit

Somehow better, but still horrifying.

Semen actually became a semi-popular note in boutique fragrances some years ago, ELDO's Secretions Magnifique comes to mind.

I hear the beaver glands taste like vanilla, but I can't be sure that's not just a prank people pull to get unsuspecting victims to lick beaver ass.

prank people pull

Maybe it's a "prank" beavers pull.

Who smells like freaking Porpoise Hork!?

Precious hamburgers?

Ambergris is what "whale vomit" is called, in case anyone didn't know. I don't know what beaver anus secretion is called.

Edit: Duh, I just read OP's note/meme. I fully approve of this use of Gordon Ramsey's likeness in connection with beaver ~~anus secretions~~ castor.

We need to leave beavers alone. If i want to smell one i'll go find one in the wild and cuddle it

Sadly, they are not very cuddly, despite being friend-shaped:

if not friend, why friend shaped?

My oh my. I need to study up on my TierZoo. Nothing with a "bite through trees" ability will avoid using it on humans.

98% of Moby Dick was concentrated on the old ass whaling industry, and based on this I believe it was actually whale phlegm

It's really neither. It happens in the intestines to help coat and pass beaks and other inedible pointy stuff.

So it's actually whale shit.

I'd say there should be a third arm with musk deer on it.

Binturong poops smell like popcorn, I heard. Though sometimes my poops also smell a bit like popcorn
