After we finished Monday's post on alternatives to Febreze, an alternative popped up: sheep poo. We are not kidding. What could possibly be more funny than an air freshener made of sheep poo? The name really got us -- and get ready, it’s a groaner...
Febreze Alternative: Sheep Poo
Poo-Pourri (and that’s not only clever, it’s trademarked, so don’t even consider starting your own copycat line of scented dung) is actually a scented piece of paper -- like those retro car air fresheners. There’s just one difference: instead of being made from paper fiber, these are made from sheep dung that is “sterilised, washed, then turned into card.”
Scents are fresh-cut grass or daffodil; no word on whether they are natural or artificial in origin.
At current exchange rates, a pack of ten in mixed scents will set you back about $23.
If, like us, you find the idea of Sheep Poo paper both alarming and delightful, you’ll be glad to know there’s a full selection of cards and stationery. We can’t wait to receive our first wedding invitation printed on sheep poo!
The trail: a mention in Discover magazine lead us to this blog post about Sheep Poo paper

At least sheep are cute. Can you imagine if this was made from something not cute and cuddly? Like a rhinoceros? Or a coyote? Never mind. There's probably a market for that, too.

And to think that for all these years I've just been spreading the sheep poo from the barn in my kitchen garden. What a waste - oh, ouch. ; )
