Surprisingly lifelike.
I think I'll pass. Any takers for a bit of corpse bread?

Many artists aren't.
Personally I think its gross.
But that's just my little stupid opinion on art.
In the interest of expanding on that I think that all of the "satanic" artists should just stop. One guy out there makes handbags that look like meat. Some other dame likes to make her self up like a zombie because she's creative! The satanic coyote guy dances around in poop or something on stage and calls it art.
Just stop.
I realize fully that art maybe should not have boundaries simply by its definition but I couple that with the "artist" being able to take an objective look at themselves before they clench up and squeeze out some of their "art" on the world.
One of the quotes I like which touches on that comes from grand pubah of the CoS Peter Gilmore. Talking about the ability to see the distinction between the Tajmahal and a mud hut. While both serve as functional structures we should be able to step back and realize the artistic aesthetic is present in one and not the other.
Gross.

I feel that we've had a conversation on the meaning of art before... and we had one delightful individual in particular who decided that what was art and what wasn't was entirely up to him and other people's opinions didn't matter, unless they were his opinions to begin with.
I personally like the bread art thing, it's interesting, macabre, and shows that a fascination with death isn't just something you find in the minds of the bored teenagers of suburbia.
I consider myself an artist, although I've only had a few years of practice and my work is unrefined. Still, people enjoy what I create because it contains a part of me that is unique. I tried for a while to contribute my ideas to the community by teaming up with someone to make a piece of public art that would satisfy both my ego and the community service portion of a certain Girl Scout project. My problem, and part of the reason I abandoned my idea, was that the artists on our local Arts Committee were too conventional. They painted landscapes of tulips in the fields and local rivers and barns and trees and things. All of our public art in my town is tulip themed. While their work is executed better than mine from a technical standpoint, I find that a lot is missing from it. While they may have contributed their heart and soul into their pieces, I can't feel it. I left the group because I didn't want to be part of another tulip project. It's too easy. It's been done before. And why would a group of 60+ yr old women and the occasional man listen to me?
There is an author, Tom Robbins, who lives locally. I love his books, and I love the way he describes our landscape. He says that our valley is muted and cloudy, and that it reminds him of old Chinese watercolor paintings. We live in a gray town. Not gray from smog or concrete, just gray from the blur of fog over mud and evergreens. I wanted to portray some of that, although I didn't really know it at the time because I hadn't read his books yet.
Along with soul, an artist must have perspective. I'm not sure I would've appreciated the bread art as much if it had been a horse or a landscape, because things like that have been done before. Cellophane wrapped body parts, however, are usually limited to the Halloween decorations sold at Party City, or other places like that. I think that it's a fun idea.

You could post a recipe for corpse pizza on the food forum. Or perhaps face hamburgers or foot sandwiches. 
Oh the things I could to with some browned ground beef with onions and sauce... In a scooped out foot shaped loaf of bread covered with cheese lightly toasted in the oven...
mmmmmmmm heaven...
