Title: Om Nom Nom

A cookbook which contains a typo in a recipe calling for "salt and freshly-ground black people" has apparently prompted outrage.

Australia's Penguin Group have been forced to reprint The Pasta Bible following the error, which its head of publishing Bob Sessions branded a "silly mistake".

The spelt tagliatelle recipe with sardines and prosciutto was meant to call for salt and black pepper.

Sessions told The Sydney Morning Herald that they were "mortified" that it has become an issue, adding: "We've said to bookstores that if anyone is small-minded enough to complain about this... silly mistake, we will happily replace [the book] for them."

How the hell did that slip through the editing phase?

Mmm, those tasty black people.


Edit: That sounded too much like an innuendo. <.<

I wonder if the books with the typo will become collectors items?
If so, where do I get one? :')

Well over in Australia they don't have the racism to worry too much about like America does.
