The actual plot of the film is what leads up to this act of poo eating. It revolves around a competition between Babs Johnson (Divine) and her family, and their rivals the Marbles, for the title of Filthiest People Alive. They constantly try to out-do one another through acts that would be considered criminal, if not criminally insane. (dreamlandnews.com)
