Blog Guy, I’m planning a trip to Russia soon and as a hotshot travel writer you know a lot about different cuisines. So like, in Moscow, is there anything I should avoid?
It all depends on your taste, but for the time being I’d steer clear of cheap kebab places.
Gosh, if you can’t trust a cheap kebab house in Moscow, what CAN you trust? Any special reason to avoid them?
Only that Russian police have arrested three homeless people suspected of eating a 25-year-old man they had butchered, and selling other bits of the corpse to a local kebab house.
Oh. But apart from that, no there’s no other problem with kebab houses there?
Uh, not apart from that human meat aspect, no. Knock yourself out.

Imma let you finish, but Beyonce has the best human flesh kebabs ever!
You really know how to run a joke into the ground. I like that in a humor writer…. It’s a technique I use myself.
I wonder which bits they ate and which they sold to the kebab shop. Do you think they ate the ‘good’ bits for themselves and then sold the ‘bad’ bits to the kebab place?
It’s a shame when you can lose your identity through cannibalism.
It worse when you have an identity which you have stolen taken from you.
Yes, LMR, that’s what I think. Cripes, I can’t get those meds to you fast enough….
Hey wait a minute! How come the dead guy has to be named Dave? Why couldn’t his name be Fred, Ned, James, or even Robert? Eh? I never would have thought you would stoop to Dave-scrimination, Blog Guy.
Sorry, I’ll go back on my meds now.
By the looks of the title, i guess Dave is “meat”!
Dont expect to hear from him….
LMR… what did ya mean by “good” parts?
Well, LMR, kebab does need to be rather greasy, so I guess you’re probably right… in any case, I wonder how the kebab place sold that meat. What is sure is from now on I am asking very carefully what meat goes into my ‘mixed’ kebab!
Dave i thiught you were “toast”!!!
M, do you get your kebabs from Russia?
Shra, in fact I get my kebabs from very respectable street vendors, unknown in name and origin. Nevertheless, given this practice sounds like the kind of cost-cutting (pun not intended) measure that could be implemented elsewhere, I think I’ll stick to prudence for the time being.
In any case, it could just be my dosage has slipped a bit, so don’t mind me too much… Nurse!!!
I’m not eating people kebabs unless they are halal!!!
There is a kebab shop right around the corner from my apartment… Maybe I should go and check whats “cooking”?
What’s cooking – good looking?
No, the kebab guy aint good looking…
