I hate to do two unicorn-related posts in a row–oh, who am I kidding? It’s my pleasure doing two unicorn-related posts in a row. Remember that “Canned Unicorn Meat” we told you about a few weeks back? It’s a goofy gift from ThinkGeek, a Spam-like concoction purporting to be made from the flesh of a mythical beast.
Apparently it’s really hard to sneak the stuff into Germany, at least according to a ThinkGeek customer told the site,
I just learned that it is not very helpful to describe the “canned unicorn meat” as “canned unicorn meat” on the invoice when trying to import this. Customs get really irritated as it’s supposedly food and meat of a “rare” animal. For the sake of keeping things smooth please label it as “canned unicorn (plush toy)” or something less conspicuous. My delicous [sic] unicorn is stuck in customs for almost a week now.
So there you have it–if you’re going to attempt to sneak mythical animal meat into a country, you’re going to have to find a more creative method…
