Paleo Poop is fossilized dinosaur poop, imported from Canada by Doylestown native Michael McGrail. I went through a dinosaur phase just like everyone else, but I'm not sure what my nine-year-old self would think about dinosaur poop fossils. But, as a mature twentysomething, it's hilarious.

Each piece comes in a four-once Paleo Poop tin, and is around 66 million years old — so says the certificiate of authenticity that comes in the tin. The stuff's not for sale online, though, so you'll have to hit up the Academy gift shop to get your own. Your friends will be brown with envy (sorry...).


$30, Academy Shop, Academy of Natural Sciences, 1900 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, 215-299-1186
