Two Dutch TV hosts decided they would eat each others flesh. I’ll say what we’re all thinking: What the fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck?
I wonder how that conversation went?
VALERIO: Hey, Dennis, it would be, er, interesting to know what humans taste like…
DENNIS: Ha! Let’s ask a cannibal? Why, do you happen to know any, Valerio?
VALERIO: Haha! Good one. Good one….
Awkward pauseI
VALERIO: But…I dunno, do you think it tastes like chicken?
DENNIS: Hm. Interesting point. Maybe. If it were properly seasoned…it is an interesting thought.
VALERIO: Yes. I’d like to try it - not in a gross way of course. It’s not like I’m gonna go kill someone or something. That would be weird.
DENNIS: Yeah, no. That would be weird. And it’s not like we can just take a bit out of ourselves. That would, well, it would hurt among other things.
VALERIO: Yes, you’re right. It was weird to bring up.
awkward silence
DENNIS: We could, I dunno, eat each others flesh. Just to see. To set the questions aside….
VALERIO: Hmm…yes. Like a cannibalism loophole. It’s not technically cannibalism if it’s with permission. It’s like an experiement..
DENNIS: YES, an experiment. For science.
VALERIO: Yes! For science.
DENNIS: So, I’d eat your flesh and you’d eat mine?
VALERIO: That sounds pretty good to me. But, let’s air it on our TV show. That way we can blame TV. We don’t want to be seen as weird.
DENNIS: Excellent idea.
hand shake.
And they’re right. It’s not weird. It is fucking insane. I promise that, even if I really, really like you, that I will never eat your flesh. Scout’s honor.
