Select Japanese supermarkets have started selling 'Zombie Meat,' a pre-packaged tasty treat that is for the true horror enthusiast.
With claims to have been cured to perfection in a graveyard, the blue-colored snack supposedly tastes suspiciously like peppered beef jerky. Available for about the equivalent of $4.50, Zombie Meat is a relative steal. I mean, think all of the hard work that must have gone into dealing with human-eating zombies. I hope those workers are in a union!
