Sweet and Sour Windfall.. Mystery meat egg rolls..
Freeze 'em up. Export 'em to America. Sell 'em in the Wal-Mart frozen food section, under a label like "Good'n'Tastey".

Rats by Dr Seuss
If your ratty gets all scatty 'cos his coat is getting matty
And he's acting kinda batty now he doesn't look so natty
If he starts to get all chatty and to voice pratty demands
Then beware! You've got a bratty tatty ratty on your hands.
If your doe has had a go with all her bro' bucks in a row
And you've seen her face aglow and her belly grow with woe
If she's getting glad and gloating and gargantuous in girth
Then at any time you guess that your grand girl is gonna birth
If your buck has had no luck getting his lazy butt unstuck
And you pluck him from his hammock to a chorus of "You suck!"
If his flaccid furry form is in a squishy slug disguise
Then it's right to get this roly rotund rat some exercise.

"Sweet and Sour Windfall.. Mystery meat egg rolls.."HAHAHA! Brilliant!
I found an old Victorian piece. This very anti-Chinese trade card uses the slogan "They Must Go" to refer to vermin and the Chinese. At the same time identifying the Chinese with rats and roaches and showing a Chinaman eating a rat on top of it all! Litho'd by Forbes of Boston.

Great — these rats (and the poisons used to kill ‘em) will be showing up in our food chain within weeks.

Sanitation staff has also been dispatched to prevent disease outbreaks. In some places around Dongting Lake, 2-foot-tall (0.6-meter-tall) concrete walls have been hastily built to keep the rodents away from farms. But Trent Lott (Jellyfish - MS) says walls don't work!
Cheers!
