"Hufu" - Tofu that tastes like humans!!
So I'm watching The Daily Show, my nightly ritual....and Samantha Bee is interviewing a guy named Mark Nuckols. Hmmm, I think to myself, I know that name....there was a chump in my 1st year law school class at Indiana University named Mark Nuckols. He wore the exact same green shorts that looked like an old faded bathing suit every day the entire first semester. Then it got cold and he wore the exact same faded baggy jeans every day in the winter. Additionally, he also had a strangely quiet, stunningly beautiful Russian wife...also a member of our 1L class. She spoke little English, and had already obtained a law degree in Russia. Of course, Nuckols was immediately coined "mail order." He was also one of those annoyingly verbose classmates who feels the need to prove exactly how many cases he actually read and briefed, and offered his input on every topic the professors raised. I attribute my B- in Contracts to the factor of being constantly distracted by his annoying behaviors just across the room.
I transferred to George Washington after that misguided year in Bloomington, Indiana....thinking I would never see Mark Nuckols again. That is, until I was wandering down Pennsylvania Ave SE on my way to my favorite Starbucks, and there he was sitting outside one of the bars. Turned out he transferred to Georgetown. He reappeared during my bar-review class summer of 2002...and wouldn't you know, he ended up in Albany, NY taking the bar exam there. Jesus!
Anyway, that was the last time I saw or heard or even thought of Mark Nuckols. Until tonight. When on The Daily Show, Samantha Bee is interviewing a guy who invented "Tofu that tastes like human flesh...." And the guy's name, is none other than Mark Nuckols. Hilarious. And while normally, I'd see something like this and say WTF?! Instead, knowing this guy, I think. Jesus. Totally believable.

Ten bucks says he describes himself as a libertarian.
The Museum of Hoaxes pointed out that how would anyone know if it really tasted like human flesh unless they were cannibals?
Nuckols got very upset over that and wanted the comments removed but I think it makes sense. I could sell any food and say it tastes like human flesh and now that Jeff Dahmer is dead, who could tell?
Mark is really a thoroughly decent human being. He's got a good heart. Yes, he's a bit odd. He hasn't had an easy life. He's a good man, one of the few.
