Beat the cost of living crisis with a 99p steak grown from human flesh!

Would you?

Quote:

'£250 for a single buttock, double is £400.’ No, this isn’t the price list for the latest cosmetic craze, but how much humans get paid for ‘donating their cells to produce meat’, as Gregg Wallace ostensibly investigated in Channel 4 documentary The British Miracle Meat.

Gleefelly introducing himself as ‘the bald bloke off the telly’, Gregg, 58, visited the ‘human meat’ factory in Lincolnshire and got stuck right into the operations with manager Mick Ross, who casually informed the MasterChef presenter he’d fed his entire family ‘human steak.’

Mick explained steaks, burgers, sausages – whatever takes your fancy – can be harvested from ‘thin slices of human tissue’ in a ‘nutrient rix mich’ that causes cells to grow in one whopping lump called a, er, cake.

The draw is that ‘human flesh’ is much cheaper than the animal alternative, costing as low as 99p per steak, allowing families to survive in the punishing, and unrelenting, cost of living crisis.

Look, before we go any further let’s make this very clear: no children (or adults) were harmed in the making of the documentary, which is in fact entirely fake and scripted.

Yup.

It's a Black Mirror type of story which sounds so ridiculous that it must be true!

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Modest_Proposal

Quote:

A Modest Proposal For preventing the Children of Poor People From being a Burthen to Their Parents or Country, and For making them Beneficial to the Publick,[1] commonly referred to as A Modest Proposal, is a Juvenalian satirical essay written and published anonymously by Jonathan Swift in 1729.

The essay suggests that the impoverished Irish might ease their economic troubles by selling their children as food to rich gentlemen and ladies. This satirical hyperbole mocked heartless attitudes towards the poor, who were predominantly Irish Catholic (i.e., "Papists"),[2] as well as British policy towards the Irish in general.

I think most of the older members have have done so.

*Soylent Green is made out of people. * They're making our food out of people. Next thing they'll be breeding us like cattle for food. You've gotta tell them.[

Edit removed reference to Jenny Aguter as that was Logans Run.
