Soylent Dumplings?

Go nicely with a crisp sauvignon blanc.

No no no, it’s “Greetings, Human!”.

Dumplings human dogs for the feeding to.

And now we know the demise of the Pillsbury Doughboy…

Banh bao nhan is…

PEOPLE!

EXOLINGUIST: General, we’ve finally translated the aliens’ book, and you’re not gonna like it.

GENERAL: Hurry up, egghead, we’ve gotta load all these spaceships for their world.

EXOLINGUIST: “Banh bao nhan” means “To Serve Man”

GENERAL: Yeah, we already know.

EXOLINGUIST: It’s a cookbook!

GENERAL: What, you got something against Vietnamese food?

As long as it says “dumplings” and not “dumpings”.

Oh, my dumplings have a first name, it’s “Oscar”!
Oh, my dumplings have a second name, it’s “Meyer”!

There’s a movie along these lines, called “Dumplings” (click my name above for the imdb link…)

Delicacy of the Potatobeing

Mmmmm! Tastes just like chicken.

rowger @ 4:22 am: No no no, it’s “Greetings, Human!”.

Best reply would be: “Dumplings, Alien! Take me to your steamer!”

Do you get fava beans with that?

Mine tastes like Hicks! what does your’s tastes like?

Banh Bao Nhan with Cha-cheer beans.
What could be better?

(But bring your Cipro..just to make sure you don’t wind up having to wear yesterday’s shirt afterward.)

Name that Mascot!

Pillsbury – Doughboy
Planters – Mr. Peanut
Cocoa Puffs – Kookoo Bird
Milky Candy – Peko-chan

Soylent dumplings

Damn it, this time they beat me to it from the very first post and I missed it.

Marc, “They” otherwise being known as the site’s webmaster.

Like udder, but always coming in pairs.

Goes nicely with a good chianti.

Don’t be fooled if the chef calles you “dumpling,” it’s not a pet name.

♫ ♪
Oh my dumpling,
Oh my dumpling,
Oh my dumpling, soy and brine,

You were too long over-boiled
Dreadful soggy,
Dumpling mine.
♫ ♪

Take one human, chop fine, add egg garlic and onion.
Mould into little flat patties in the palm of your cupped hand.
Cook in hot oil until brown.
Seve with a galand of spring herbs, and fresh cracked pepper.
Voila!

Serve (damn)

It’s the year 2022… People are still the same. They’ll do anything to get what they need. And they need SOYLENT GREEN.

Is that anything like a Self Potato?

Garland also. Oh for an “Edit” burron.

A women’s t-shirt for this one?

Cannibalism isn’t really funny though. Why would you eat a dumpling stuffed with human calf?

Báhn bao nhân, the other, other, other white meat!

Senor, sometimes the bull he wins!

At least they aren’t human dumpings.

Dumplings to you to, sign!

I didn’t want human dumplings I wanted pork dumplings! 🙁
Wait a minute does that mean when I order pork dumplings they’re cops?!!! o.O

leave in rest room for begging toilet

I agree, they should definitely ban bao nhan

looks like mrs lovett gave up on the meat pies…

Donner, party of one?

“Bánh bao nhân” means “stuffed bun/dumpling” (nhân=stuffed, bánh bao=bun/dumpling). They used the word “nhân” in order to distinguish with those buns/dumplings that are not stuffed.
“Nhân” alone literally means “human.” Seriously failed to translate into English. LOL.

I once saw a menu saying “Mực” (supposedly means squid there), but “mực” also means “ink.” And YET in that menu, they wrote “Mực-INK” for foreigners. LOL Who gonna eat “ink”? LOL.
