Strictly ornamental, or can you crunch 'em up like a giant ogre?

I'd eat one.

...creepy... almond flavored fetuses...

Not that marzipan either, I'm afraid.

That's okay, crunchland, seemed plausible to me, too.

I don't know, the hair on their heads kind of gave it away for me.

Kinda weird how these tiny babies go from really cool to not very cool at all as soon as you find out you can't EAT THEM.

Creepy and funny.... Too bad they really aren't edible.

Oh snopes, destroyer of dreams.

Damn and blast. I could eat 'em all.

You can still eat real babies.

Who says you can't eat them? There made from "they're made from Prosculpt polymer clay and mohair". Sounds delicious!

You have to admit, for such tiny creations they have great detail. I like them.

Wow, amazing.

What kind of delusional freak of nature makes tiny fetus sculptures?
posted by mr.curmudgeon at 5:28 PM on April 3, 2006

This kind.

Yeah, but real babies taste nothing like marzipan. The mostly taste like poo, despite the obviously biased objections of mothers everywhere.

Oh holy crap. Biblio, where did you find that? *files link in bookmarks under "appetite suppressants and diet aids"*

Bilblio-- that's even creepier than eating real babies

And just because these babies weren't marzipan, there's no reason that they couldn't be.

Jesus Biblio, how about the requisite NSFAAA, huh??!

Not safe for anyone, anywhere, anytime...

Hee hee! I've been sitting on that link for a long time. Mr. Biblio and I were talking about hyper-realistic baby dolls last night and I remembered seeing those fetus babies. Lo and behold, I get online tonight and find the perfect place to showcase them!

The most disturbing thing is that some of these are modeled on dead babies. I know people used to take pictures of their dead children, but making a doll of your miscarried child is just...ick.

DELICIOUS BABIES!

I'm sad that these aren't edible. Someone should fill this void — oh wait. eatbabies.com already exists.

CAUTION! NON-EDIBLE BABY INSIDE THIS CAKE

That's almost as creepy as Britney giving birth.
