The more I think about this, the more I'm wondering if this is really a just a joke. I mean, this guy could be an evil genius...thought of this gross idea for a book that a gazillion people are going to by as a prank for some innocent, unsuspecting victim and he makes a lot of money. I just can't believe that anyone would actually make recipes with this. No way. I just can't believe it.

Just bought one. I'll let you know how the recipes work out.....or it might just be the winning white elephant gift this year.

That's funy, I was looking for an RSS feed to unsubscribe from. Thanks Chicagoist!

BTW I love your tags on this article: "cookbooks", "ewwwwwww", "semen", "um...no". Have those tags EVER been used in conjunction with each other ever before? Don't think so! So if I eat a lot of mint, and I'm cooking a leg of lamb, could I... ?

Yes, but is it organic? I see vegan boys getting a lot of handjobs off this.

I think it's all up to the hands of the harvester.

So is any old semen good or does the "supplier" have to eat certain foods to get the right "flavor", consistency, etc.? How does this whole "dash of semen" thing work?

Do they include instructions on how to properly microwave a cantaloupe? BEST. CHICAGOIST. POST. EVER.

This might be the awesomest story ever. Oh wait, by awesome, I meant "fucking disgusting."

And some fell upon a casserole; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.

"I just puked in my mouth a bit." That's a whole 'nother cookbook.

Navin: no offense taken. That cookbook's enough.

I just showed this to my roommate and told him I was getting it for Christmas for him. He was not amused.

Slated to open in summer 2009 my new restaurant "Skeet" in Wicker Park on Milwaukee Ave. natch... Come on by and see our men, they're all full of spunk and nutty as heck! Our signature dish will be "The Superman" in honor of Soulja Boy of course.

Sorry chuck, didn't mean to lump bandwagoners in with you *OG* foodies!

Is this for real? Either way, I love this line: "Once you overcome any initial hesitation..." INITIAL? How about a lifetime of hesitation of cooking with semen? And this one too... "Semen is inexpensive to produce..." Yeah, the price can't be beat. "... and is commonly available in many, if not most, homes and restaurants" LOL. And auto body shops and department stores and public libraries and office break rooms and... You lose a point for bringing this cookbook to our attention, but gain one back for including the great Wynonie Harris. Although I also like "I Like My Baby's Pudding"

I'm going to jar my own and sell it as organic. Can vegans eat it? Will there be protests about mass "semen mills" where men are kept in tiny constrained compounds furiously producing until blanks are shot? Or we could just follow Ricky Gervais' lead and say no to Jizz flan and cum sandwiches.

Thanks, I'm done eating for the day now. Maybe the weekend.

Navin: like the style of the humor, logic is flawed. The foodies were already eating foie gras; the ban was bringing those who had never heard of it to try it.

Navin

Fri, 21 Nov 2008 11:17:57 -0600

Hey people clamor to gobble on duck liver once you ban it. Just ban semen in Chicago and all the foodies will be scrambling to get some...

Oh, I'm so glad I had plain vanilla yogurt for breakfast about an hour ago. Cum and food? No.
