Meat Business Cards

MEAT CARDS: BUSINESS CARDS MADE FROM MEAT AND LASERS.

We love a direct marketing approach. "Meat Cards" -- pure beef jerky etched with your information using lasers (sorry, "a 150 WATT CO2 LASER") -- take off where the bacon explosion, flaming bacon lance of death and meat art stop.

Why should you care? Because they'll "retain value after the econopocalypse," of course: "Hoard and barter your calorie-rich, life-sustaining cards." Bust these suckers out at the next Bar Association meeting or snack on them when stuck on the subway.

Follow the meatheads' Twitter to find out when to avail yourself of these treasures.

What does it say about our society, about the imbalances and values we have, that something like this is even possible? When food, particularly one so nutrient-dense as meat, is used as a joke and an accessory? Whoa.
