Plot:
Poor Donald, an unhappily married middle-aged hard-working construction worker, can't remember the last time he had something good to eat, and it's all May's fault, his shrieking harpy of a wife, with her ideas for fancy cooking and high-class lifestyle. To make matters worse, May has recently invested in absolutely the latest in what technology has to offer, that is to say, Major Electric's state-of-the-art microwave oven, model X1-74A, threatening to never prepare a decent meal again, of course, all in the name of Donald's own good. But with each meal worse than the previous one, trapped in a culinary purgatory where even their dog eats better than him, enough is enough, and one night, Donald drunk and pushed a morsel too far, in a fit of despair, he will bludgeon May to death. With the antidote to May's cooking and her in the microwave, Donald will accidentally get a taste of human flesh only to find it sweet, unique and fantastic, yet a bit tough and old. Now that Donald has tasted blood, there's no turning back, but with his health keep getting better and a fridge full of evidence, he must act fast. After all, we are what we eat..
