12 Recipes You Can Cook With Your Kids
I guess in these tough economic times, that would be one way to stretch the food budget....

I'd go with the hircine interpretation, just to be safe.

Cook-book misprint costs Australian publishers dear
Penguin said it was "mortified" over the "silly" mistake in its pasta cook-book
An Australian publisher has had to pulp and reprint a cook-book after one
recipe listed "salt and freshly ground black people" instead of black pepper.
Penguin Group Australia had to reprint 7,000 copies of Pasta Bible last week, the Sydney Morning Herald has reported.
The reprint cost Aus$20,000 ($18,000; £12,000), but stock in bookshops will not be recalled as it is "extremely hard" to do so, Penguin said.
The recipe was for spelt tagliatelle with sardines and prosciutto.
"We're mortified that this has become an issue of any kind, and why anyone would be offended, we don't know," head of publishing Bob Sessions is quoted as saying by the Sydney newspaper.
Penguin said almost every one of the more than 150 recipes in the book listed salt and freshly ground black pepper, but a misprint occurred on just one page.
"When it comes to the proofreader, of course they should have picked it up, but proofreading a cook-book is an extremely difficult task. I find that quite forgivable," Mr Sessions said.
If anyone complains about the "silly mistake", they will be given the new version, Penguin said.

Only 12? I can think of lots more...
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”

I have to say though that in my experience, I've found that freshly ground black people add a lot more to a dish than that packaged, pre-ground black people stuff you see in the stores....
