Is there any information available about the consumption of former Prime Ministers?
(An outcome greatly to be wished...)
Or maybe even previous Presidents?!

So, The taste That Lingers?

"Lord of Zuid- en Noord-Linschoten,": How easily does "Linschoten" morph into "lynched and eaten"?
(And, for that matter, "Lord" into "Lard")?
