Hideously Charming

Everyone should have a squirrel lamp:

You could terrorize small children by turning it on suddenly in the middle of the night!

The author of this site does NOT condone terrorizing small children.

Rut

I'm in a food rut. I need to find new (moderately priced) restaurants and try them instead of going to the same places all the time.

Ideas? I'm in Atlanta and will eat pretty much anything except olives and Taco Bell.

What the $%*& is this???

SQUIRREL MEAT??

"...Just add some water to our (exclusive) dehydrated squirrel, let it sit overnight and, next day, sit down to a delicious, non-gamy rehydrated squirrel.

These little beauties are raised on a certified organic farm in Tennessee, are carefully eviscerated and skinned (choose from bone-in, the more expensive bone-out, or from the deluxe squirrel filet) and they're certified rabies-free by the FDA. (Since this is such a new product, FDA inspectors are onsite constantly and they inspect the meat much more closely than beef or pork.) Each carcass is inspected twice by line workers to be sure it is hair-free."

I seriously thought it was a joke. But it's not. I mean, people in my family have eaten squirrel before, and I've made peace with the fact that other people do eat it and enjoy it. But oh...my...lord. Dehydrated squirrel carcasses? If I ever came upon one of these I think it would make me cry.
