Fresh Stone-Age Meat

Back in 2010, Bosch refrigerators ran an unusual ad campaign to promote its VitaFresh technology which, it promised, could keep food fresh longer. They created fake plastic-wrapped cuts of dinosaur legs, mammoth steaks, and saber-tooth filets, and placed these meats in supermarkets throughout Germany. The idea was that this meat is really old, but it's still fresh.

I sure wish Bosch would sell some sweet dinosausage at my supermarket! As nice as their brats are, I could go for a change of pace.

Mammoth meat from the Siberian permafrost has, in fact, been eaten. At least once by humans, and more than once by sled dogs. It's probably not really a good idea, but it's possible. I doubt Bosch freezers reach Siberian temperatures, though.
