Ain’t No Soylent Green

With celebrities like Jamie Oliver helping to increase the popularity of home cooking, the supermarkets have become quite adept at providing a wide range of herbs and spices for the UKs budding chefs. There are some ingredients, however, that would prove difficult for even the revered Heston Blumenthal to come by…freshly ground black people, for example!

Penguin Group Australia have allegedly had to fork out £12,000 to fix a typo in cookbook The Pasta Bible due to a recipe for spelt tagliatelle with sardines and prosciutto calling for ‘salt and freshly ground black people’!

The books are not being recalled, so expect to see a couple turning up on eBay any day now!
