[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] North Korea![]() ’s supreme leader Kim PudgeJong-un ...the overweight, pouty-looking hereditary potentate of North Korea. Pudge appears to believe in his own divinity, but has yet to produce any loaves and fishes, so his subjects remain malnourished... has told hungry citizens to resort to eating black swans amid the country’s ongoing food crisis, the New York Post reported on Friday. The country has been pushing ornamental birds as a protein-rich substitute while opening breeding plants, according to the report. "Black swan meat is delicious and has medicinal value," said the Hermit Kingdom’s ruling party newspaper Rodong Sinmun, to push bird meat, which is rarely eaten across the world. Research into breeding these ornamental birds began in early 2019. Researchers sponsored by the state went so far as to say that the meat had "anticancer" properties, Korean news outlet NK News said. The news media also previously called black swan meat "an exceptional health food for the 21st century with a unique taste and extremely high nutritional value." |
