The Basement Tapes: Have You Met the Paté?

Whoa, it's gonna be good eating at Tom's tonight – if he didn't already gobble up Suri's placenta with a glass of Katie's water discharge, that is. We have it on good authority that a nice-size placenta (and a 20-inch, seven-pound newbie is a decent size) can make a modest tray of appetizers for a party of 20. Back in 1998, WOW had a show on HBO called Shock Video that culled outrageous moments from television around the world. Episode 6 of Shock Video included a clip from a show on Channel 4 in the UK called TV Dinners that shot the preparation of placenta paté and the reaction of the guests who were served it on bread squares. We love the vegetarian who thought human was not animal, therefore the paté was acceptable and "quite nice." And the lady who was inspired to ponder "What is meat ? What is vegetables?" (Watch the clip)
