Letters from Left Field

I got the following today from India or Pakistan, judging from the name:
I had come 2 know about a in imaginable food item in your country(TAIWAN) that is eating a baby of six months(died before born) or feateus of a woman that had been selling in a supermarket..


IS THAT TRUE.

    actually, you should say from 'right field'; these stories were spread in teh US by far right wing anti-China/anti-abortion groups.

    Okay, listen up nutwads.

    This rumor all started after a CHINESE artist did an exhibit called Eating People.

    Nothing to do with Taiwan, the right wing, or the left wing.

    Also, there's that movie about the dumplings.

    I'm aware of the origin of the photos; my point is that it was fundy anti-abortion groups that spread the story in the US.
