Humans Taste Like Bacon

Newspaper current event by VnutZ on 10 November 2006, tagged as pithy

Japan has long been on the cutting edge of robot technology. Development has included small project and hobbyist robots all the way through advanced research and development in the field. Perhaps the technology has gone too far. While robots like the AIBO have become welcome in our homes as "pets," the latest development, called the WineBot may change that trend. Designed to identify tastes, the robot sampled human flesh and determined a reporter and cameraman as proscuitto and bacon. It is only a matter of time before humanity becomes enslaved to our robotic overlords, to be used as Soylent Green brand organic batteries.

This is obviously flawed. Clearly, the reporter tasting of proscuitto was from NYC, and the cameraman tasting of bacon from Atlanta. Were they to get an actress from LA, she would taste like tofu.

and not just tofu, but smoked tofu. (You have to take the smog into account.)

Don't you mean Fried Chicken? Yeah, Yeah, Yeah ... (1) Poor Taste.
