To Serve Mankind

As you can see, this image comes from My First Fail: Adorable Funny Baby Photos, where you can see pictures of kids being kids (as opposed to the rest of the Internet, where we see pictures of kids trying to be adults) as well as pictures of kids whose parents don't love them very much. But obviously, this kid's parents adore him.

Or possibly his grandparents. You know: "You're so cute! I'll eat you up!"



But children are irresistibly delicious. Everyone knows that. They usually come pre-seasoned with sugar. Their flesh is delicately marbled. They're not full of hormones and antibiotics and steroids. They're free from disease. If you're going to engage in cannibalism, you want to eat a child. Grown-ups are stringy and bitter.



Come to think of it, it's a wonder any of us make it to adolescence, given how yummy we are.
