A cannibal family had run out of tourists to eat and were forced to turn on each other in order to survive. At a formal family meeting, they decided that the father should be sacrificed first, partly because he was the oldest but also because there was enough meat on him to feed the wife and children for the rest of the week. So they boiled him in a pot and started carving him up. For lunch on the first day, the children ate his ears and cheeks while their mother cooked his tongue. "Whatever you do," she told them, "don't let me forget to add salt to my dish." But being kids they did forget and it was not until she took the first bite out of the tongue that she remembered the missing ingredient. "I knew I'd forget the condiment," she said. "Why is it so important?" they asked. "Because," she explained, "I have always made it a rule in life to take whatever comes out of your father's mouth with a pinch of salt." Did you hear about the cannibal who was expelled from school for buttering up his teacher?
