Eating Human Fetuses in China – ESWN

Cantonese are known for a penchant for exotic food, but this is much crazier, not verified by CDT. Translated by EastSouthWestNorth blog:

According to a notice from the Obscene Articles Tribunal, an inspection of the content of Issue No. 304 of Taiwan’s resulted in the magazine being classified as Category III obscene due to the front cover article about eating babies in China. The story was about some mainlanders believing that eating human fetuses can improve looks and heal diseases, and therefore they purchase dead fetuses from hospitals. The article tells about the prices and method of eating, including photographs of someone slicing off baby flesh. Under Hong Kong law, the Taiwan publisher is a foreign entity that cannot be prosecuted, but the local distributor may be charged and face a maximum penalty of HK$ 1 million and three years in prison.
