Who orig. named the things we picks out of our nose "Boogers"? How di!


Question:

Answers:
Dried nasal mucus (vulgarly called "snot" or "booger(s)") is partially solidified mucus from the nose. Dried nasal mucus forms when the mucus traps dust and other particles in the air. Mucus dries around the particle and hardens, somewhat like a pearl forming in an oyster. Since catching foreign particles is one of the main functions of nasal mucus, the presence of dried nasal mucus is a good indicator of a properly functioning nose (as opposed to a "runny nose", which can indicate illness).
