A friend who lives there told me some of the things they eat. This is no surprise. These people will eat anything.
Europeans were doing similar stuff to mummies a few hundred years ago.

They’re eating rocks?
They will eat anything with four legs except the dinner table.
I’d like to know more about this cache of dinosaur bones. Where were they found, what was their condition, etc. Was it just a pile of bones, or were they somewhat assembled?

In the humor section of the bookstore, “World News” (that real weird rag with the outrageous Big Foot stories, etc. (Bat Boy) has a book of headlines out, this doesn’t seem all that far from that kind of a story.
If comic books have taught me anything, these people are soooo going to get super powers from this.
I had a steak like that once.
My ex-Mother-in-law better go into hiding...
I thank God every day that I was born in America.
