There are 100 billion bacterial cells in a single gram of poop.
Almost as many as there are stars in the Milky Way. A great ice breaker for a romantic dinner.
Especially if you're dating a coprophiliac.
About half of all the organic mass of the human body is bacteria .... I think the average is that the human body is half of our own cells and half is bacteria that grows alongside us (actually inside us)
