A new delicacy in China is being criticized: A part-fried fish is served alive on a plate for diners. In order to keep the carp alive, chefs cook its body but wrap its head in a wet cloth to keep it breathing, before covering it in sauce and serving in on a plate.
Coming in at a close second to “whole chicken in a can,” in terms of gross/wtfness, is cheeseburger in a can. According to those who’ve consumed this dubious product, it tastes just “okay” and has a really soggy bun. No surprise there.
Ebay has a Spanish brand bubble gum called “Camel Balls” on sale for $3.41. It’s an extra sour, liquid filled gum that features a very well endowed illustrated camel on the package. Talk about subtle. And I always thought extra sour balls from Spain were called Javier Bardem. Bah dum bum psssssh.

A UK man was so disgusted with his meals while on a 22-week treatment at a hospital, that he decided to take to the Internet and posted photos of the cuisine, asking viewers to guess what’s what.
‘There’s almost a general theme of wallpaper paste made with milk – that’s what most of the food seems to taste like.
‘There is a little bit of variety, because you never know what you’re going to get. Today was vegetable moussaka. I posted a picture, but so far it’s stumped everyone.
‘The entree tends to be uniform beige. Most of the vegetables need to go in a spin dryer before you get to eat them – they are that wet.
Here were his LOL responses to a hospital survey:
Q: When ordering your food, was the hostess helpful in taking your order?
If helpful means throwing a menu through the door, like a piece of meat being tossed into a lions’ enclosure – then yes.Q: Were you offered a choice?
Yes – a choice of three equally ghastly main courses.Q: Did you get the food you chose?
Yes – unfortunately.Q: How did you score the hospital food?
By awarding each dish between one and five Rennies.Q: Did the food look appealing?
Probably – if you’re a famine victim.Q: How would you describe the preparation of the food?
Haphazard and chaotic.Q: How would you describe your health over the past four weeks?
How do you think? I’m in a bloody hospital for Christ’s sake!Q: Do you consider yourself to have special dietary needs?
Only since eating your food.

A popular UK soda beverage made an unfortunate gaffe in its new can design. Can you take a guess at what Tango With Added Tango tastes like?
TWAT talking heads say it was simply a “coincidence,” but conservative member of parliament Ann Widdicombe fumed: “It is deeply tasteless.”
Does that mean she doesn’t like the taste of TWAT?
