There is no scientific word for boogers.
However, there is a scientific word for nose picking.
It’s called “rhinotillexomania.”

According to an interview with CTV-News Saskatoon, Napper says that eating boogers exposes the body to mucus that has trapped bacteria. In theory, the body could build up an immunity to the bacteria in this mucus and then be more equipped to fight against future illness-causing bacteria

For a long healthy life, eat your boogers at least five times a day, in times of drought, cut back to three....

The term “soccer” does not originate in America. The word is from Britain, where it was derived from a short form of “Association Football.”

A rainbow can be seen only in the morning or late afternoon. It can occur only when the sun is 40 degrees or less above the horizon.

The huddle in American Football was introduced back in the 1890s by Paul Hubbard, who was a deaf player that used hand signals to call plays. Bringing the team together surrounding the quarterback was an approach used to prevent competitors from seeing the signals.
