Chinese officials have issued an angry denial following claims the country has been marinating human cadavers, putting them in cans and then selling them in African supermarkets.
The outlandish rumour appears to have been started on Facebook, where a post featuring grisly images, supposedly of human meat being processed, went viral earlier this month.
The post was picked up by Zambia’s Daily Post, among others, which published a report saying: “One cannot deny the possibilities (sic) of this being true since we all know that the Asians are among the largest population in the entire world.
“Since China is so overpopulated to a point where there is no space to spit, what do they do with the dead bodies of the Chinese? Well the answer might be that they are shipping the bodies to Africa in the form of canned meat, and they make a profit during the process.”

Given Chinese culinary tastes for exotica, I would not be surprised if the trade went in the other direction!

“Who-whom?” indeed!
U.S.D.A. to Allow Chicken From Chinese Companies

Good one! ;)
What’s the point? An hour after you finish a can, you just want another one.
Good way to get rid of bodies. Freezing them overnight makes it less messy and easier to chop up......like a Pro. The only thing he did wrong was not have the woodchipper backed up to a catfish pond. THAT is how you get rid of everything. Better than a pig farm ;)
Actually there are no cultural or ethical reasons in China why something like this should not happen if it were cheaper to produce than beef or chicken.
Valenzuela? Didn’t he play in the majors?
I’m cool with spreading this rumor.
China put plastic (melamine) in dog food as a substitute for protein (they read the same in standard tests). As least humans are “real meat.”
China has improved.
Planned Parenthood?
“Gerber was wondering why their baby food wasn’t selling in Africa.”
Truth is always stranger than fiction. MAD Magazine used to publish gag labels for cans & bottles. For Beechnut strained baby food, they did this:
“BELCHNOT STRAINED BABIES”
“Packed in East Africa. By cannibals for cannibals.”
However, nothing can beat the Simpsons label of
“SOYLENT GREEN...... NOW WITH MORE GIRLS!”
Didn’t Mark Twain reference this in Innocense Abroad? Seeing the flesh of a “son of Adam” for sale in Canton or Shanghai?
You round eye!
You buy - you like!
“The Wanting Seed”, Anthony Burgess, 1962. There is a phony “war” in which people are conscripted, trained, given equipment, deployed...then killed and their bodies sold to corporations for food. Cannibalism is rampant in some parts of the world. They don’t even label it Soylent!
Labeled as what? How do you say “soylent green” in Bantu?
If China thought they could get away with it, they’d do it.
Wouldn’t surprise me if it was true.
