Springwood Decides:
Hobbos on the Dinner Table?

The Issue
In a bid to provide a new revenue stream for Springwood's Beef-Based Agriculture industry, it has been suggested that Hobbos could be added to the menu.

The Debate
"The fact is, the Hobbo population is out of control," says Beef-Based Agriculture spokesperson Freddy Chicago. "We have to do something about them anyway, so why not market them as tasty snacks? We could have Hobbo kebabs, Hobbo pies, Hobbo-on-a-sticks--the possibilities are endless! Let's not pass up this golden opportunity to provide a feast, if you will, for our economy."
[Accept]


"I agree that something needs to be done about Hobbo over-population," says random passer-by Beth Shiomi, "but eating them? That's kind of gross. Let's just shoot the ones we have to and shovel their bodies into ditches like normal."
[Accept]


"I am shocked and appalled!" declared SPCA President Sue-Ann Jong-Il. "If anyone needs to be culled, it's us humans. The Hobbos were here first, remember? We need to take this as a sign to get our industry--agriculture in particular--to back off. The Hobbo is part of what makes Springwood a great nation!"

Choose the first one, its an economic boost. Also, I dont know how hobos taste but if they taste anything like Imperial Eagles (my nat. animal) then they taste pretty good!

My national animal is the genius inventor mouse ... ergo I either make them a protected species or dismiss the issue.

I mean, would you really want to eat Gadget?

Definately. I would prefer her coated in choclate and stuffed with some kind of strawberry flavoured goo.

Coat her in olive oil and oregano. She'll slide down your throat much easier then, and with a minimum of struggling. Hrr hrrr hrrrr.

All this food talk is making me hungry. Where's a good inventor mouse when you need one?

Gadget doesnt have enough meat on her. There are alot of options for hobos other than eating them. They could be rounded up and hunted for fun, or used for medical science. But if you REALLY want to eat em enough salt and ranch dressing would make anything taste good.

Not bad, as long as your national animal isn't a jellyfish or porcupine
