Update: Cody sez, "What better time to post this golden oldie of Douglas Adams reading a selection about food which wants to be eaten from The Restaurant at the End of the Universe?"

7-How-7 sez, "The 'Cut Me, Wicked Servant' group on Flickr deals with the same topic as the Suicide Foods blog except using actual photos of restaurants, murals, ads, etc featuring an animal, maybe a cow or a pig or a sad sad chicken, about to slice himself up with a fork and knife."
