Introducing the Indian man who aspires to achieve fame and fortune by displaying his odd craving for consuming bricks.
Pakkirappa Hunagundi is affected by a rare eating disorder, claiming he is hooked on munching exclusively on bricks, gravel, and mud.
“I have a preference for mud and bricks, nothing else,” he explained. “I consume it because it’s become a habit. It’s something I require daily. Stopping is not an option for me.”
“My mother urges me to stop eating it, yet I remain resolute. Even if you offer me fried chicken, my desire for mud is unwavering.”
Since the age of ten, this 30-year-old has been eating bricks. Currently, he consumes about one brick daily and three kilos of mud and gravel to satisfy his urges.
It is suggested that he may be experiencing a condition called Pica, characterized by the compulsive consumption of items that lack nutritional value.
“It’s incredibly unusual to us,” remarked a local.
Mr. Hunagundi has disregarded the concerns from his friends and family regarding his diet and is now looking to traverse India to display his brick-eating skills.
According to him, his unusual eating habits have not led to any negative health consequences.
