Do you like Char Siu Pao??

Are you a char siu pao lover? I bet you've heard of the 'yan yuk'(human meat) char siu pao right? Human meat is nothing new already, so now what's the latest trend? tah-dah..the Cardboard Char Siew Pao!!!

Cardboard? yes, cardboard! How can a char siu pao made from cardboard? Well, you dono how, i also dono how, but in Beijing, China, they know how!! 60% made from cardboard and 40% from fatty pork. ewww.......

From cnn:-
Squares of cardboard picked from the ground are first soaked to a pulp in a plastic basin of caustic soda -- a chemical base commonly used in manufacturing paper and soap -- then chopped into tiny morsels with a cleaver. Fatty pork and powdered seasoning are stirred in.

i think they are way too creative and smart. If they are not smart, how can they think of making char siu pao with cardboard? cardboard can replace flour wor... just because they want to cut costs they can think of all sorts of thing.. maybe because they are too poor and they are struggling to survive.
