One step closer to Solyent Green...

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — An alternative to cremation that was shot down a few years ago by New Hampshire’s House is making a comeback.
The House votes Wednesday whether to allow human bodies to be dissolved into a soapy liquid.
The Legislature voted to allow the process in 2006, but reversed itself the next year and banned it. An attempt to lift the ban failed in 2009. The House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee is recommending that the House vote to allow it.
The process uses lye, 300-degree heat and 60 pounds of pressure per square inch to destroy bodies in big stainless-steel cylinders. It leaves behind a coffee-colored liquid with the consistency of motor oil and a strong ammonia smell.

Take the smell out, firm up the liquid, and call it spam.  I read somewhere that long pork supposedly has a sweet taste to it when those who eat it were asked to describe the flavor.
