If you know something useless, but still interesting, post it here! For example, I once listened to a car alarm beep and counted to 30. So, that particular car alarm beeped 30 times.

The lack of calcium in the diet of a chicken may make her lay shell-less eggs.
.... Not useless if you grow chickens though...

Oh, and gelatin is extracted from the bones, skin and other parts of dead animals.

I was recently informed that a large percentage of the flavoring in raspberry candy is extracted from the anal glands of skunks. Yeah, I don't eat raspberry flavored candy anymore. This is more disgusting than anything. But what's interesting is to wonder. Who decided a skunk's anal glands would make for some good raspberry flavoring? And more importantly, how did they decide upon this? Hmmm...

Thats almost as good as the rumor that Red Bull and other energy drinks were made from a an ingredient that was extracted from a bull's semen. Which is one reason after hearing that I dont drink energy drinks anymore.

Well, energy drinks like Red Bull have taurine which is is a major constituent of bile and is present in many animals (including humans, if you need to know). It is named after bulls because it was first extracted from them.

I just looked that up, and the sinking also happened on an April night. That's actually kinda spooky.

Well, what about this?

When the Titanic hit the iceberg, the silent version of the film The Poseidon Adventure, a movie about the desperate efforts of a group of passengers to survive the sinking of an ocean liner, was being screened aboard ship.
