Oh man. I am so glad I am not the guy who has to stand there and sniff the cow burps.

A Swedish university has received $590,000 in research funds to measure the greenhouse gases released when cows belch.

Cattle release methane, a greenhouse gas believed to contribute to global warming, when they digest their food. Researchers believe the level of methane released depends on the type of food the eat.

He said 95 percent of the methane released by cows comes out through the mouth.

95 percent is released from their mouth? Oh yuck. Still hungry for that cow tongue now?
