Foxxxy Has A Cook Out

Latest Delicacy: Nuclear-Boosted Crayfish

HELSINKI (Rooters) - Officials at a Finnish nuclear power plant say they
have tripled the growth of crayfish by incubating them in waters warmed by
heat absorbed by its cooling system without affected the taste of the delicacy.


Environmental protection manager Foxxx Y at power group Teollisuuden
Voima told Rooters the crayfish grown in the 13 degree Celsius (55.4
degrees Fahrenheit) water were delicious, and she had no qualms about
serving them to guests.

''They don't taste like a nuclear power plant, which after all has no taste or
smell to it,'' Foxxxy said.

Growth of freshwater crayfish, a seasonal delicacy typically eaten in late
summer in Finland and Sweden, was accelerated so that those hatched in
spring last year reached full growth of 10 centimeters (four inches) in one
year instead of three, she said.

Foxxxy said the experiment was 100 percent risk-free and had the blessing
of safety authorities since the water from the cooling process was completely
isolated from radiation.

She said the plant had already sold a batch of about 100,000 crayfish to fish
farmers as livestock. Another 100,000 had hatched in May and would also be
sold, especially to Nasty Nathanc, DSGumby, and other unnamed denizens of the Flambe Thread.
