Grotesque Literary Fact! Lewis Carroll, Turtles, and Mock Turtle Soup

Y'all into Alice in Wonderland? Lewis Carroll was onto some bizarre stuff, but check this out - 'Mock Turtle' character was based on a real dish called Mock Turtle Soup, which was like a poor man's turtle soup, but made with a calf's head. Makes you think twice about the kinda food inspiration going on back then...
