Human flesh on sale in Moldova

Manbeef was around for at least a while before 4/1. I agree that it's very complete, although the recipe section was fairly unimaginative.
I didn't find it very funny though. It was too straight, too deadpan. My thought wasn't "how clever," but "wow, someone has way too much time on his hands."

If you are buying meat by the bag...you deserve whatever you get. I hear it tastes just like chicken.

imagine finding out you accidently ate human flesh, and then finding out it came from "a state cancer clinic in Chisinau."

Pork, apparently, hence the nickname "long pig." (Here's an excellent recipe.)

I think this (manbeef) is the most complete 4/1/01 joke I've ever seen.
