I think it's unlikely that someone from the Vlodrop kitchens is going to post a
message on FFL to confirm it. But I have heard it from elsewhere via a friend
in Germany. I think with stories like this we have to check if they seem
reasonable according to what we know about they way things work in the TMO. We
know that the elite of the TMO live in a protected world, have a strong sense
of entitlement and they like to do things that emphasize their superiority and
make sure the lower ranks know their place, e.g. Harris Kaplan's garden
ornaments or the televised "family chats". So it's not outside the bounds of
possibility that it might be true. Because the people at the bottom are treated
like dirt they don't have much in the way of loyalty, so stories do leak out.
Also it's so nutty you couldn't make it up. So sadly it does have a ring of
truth to it.
