Cannibalistic recipe......

Leonarda Cianciulli was a very sweet old lady
Of Correggio, Italy.
She did not want he son to join the (then)
Royal Italian Army (we're close to 1939, you see)
Palm readings, fortune telling was part of her beliefs
Part of a practice and from her, women came advice to seek

In the process of seeking blessings for the son
Offerings and sacrifices were needed.
The first vicitim (of three) was a  spinster
She killed her with an axe, cut the pieces
And put them in caustic soda

To the mushy results she  ''added flour, sugar,
Chocolate, milk and eggs as well as a bit of margarine...''
And thus made lots of crunchy cakes and served them
To the ladies who came to visit..

She even ate some of the delicacies herself.
