This is so disgusting! I love science and am not easily grossed out, but come on!! I saw ads for this on the sides of buses in Manhattan recently, and I kind of wanted to cover my kids' eyes. I remember hearing something sketchy about the source of the bodies when this first came out, too, like they were prisoners or something.
Ugh, I totally agree with all your points, Stephanie. I think the possibility of the bodies being Chinese prisoners makes it extra skeevy and unethical.
And I hate the way the bodies are posed in "cute" scenes, it seems so gross and horrifying like something a serial killer would do!
My least favorite "exhibit" has returned!
Oh HELLS no!
