Great little machine. For only $700, you can make your own fertilizer.

The video says it costs $1199. There's something wrong with someone who wastes so much food as we see being fed into this gadget.

Can get a cow for around the same and get dairy in addition to fertilizer. Throw in a goat and there goes your scraps.

We do the crow thing here. They are always hanging around our back yard waiting for a hand out.

That's a creative way to turn the other cheek. This isn't spam; it's interesting, although I'd like to know how it turns scraps into fertilizer in only 24 hours.

What food scraps? We have a 14 year old grandson that takes care of those.

And what is the energy consumption? To create a pound of dirt, a lot of ELECTRICITY, eh??
