The Donner Party - WOULD YOU EAT YOUR FAMILY?

I’ve just been reading about another group of migrants who got into a similar situation but survived due to their unusually large supply of carrots

The MaDonner Party

Maybe they shouldn't have started the journey with a name so similar to Dinner Party

They were really tempting fate naming their expedition after kebab meat.

I thought this was a fictional film on the Simpsons!

I made it to Oregon but I was terrible at hunting and all my family and friends died

Unfortunately the game didn’t have the option to eat them

Apparently we can’t eat each other now because we have to feed each other to the cows.

Boris said so.

If we're going to bump topics, the Donner Kebab Party is worthwhile.

Only as sprinkles on a cake or a crumble, given all of them have been cremated.
