Every year, the Library at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champagne holds its Annual C-U Edible Book Festival.

Around the world on April 1st bibliophiles, book artists, and food lovers gather to celebrate the book arts and the (literal!) ingestion of culture. Participants create edible books that are exhibited, documented then consumed.

Here are the winners of the 2008 competition: Link – via Boing Boing

    Lard of the Flies = a dish I would not want to see.

    Yeah I wouldn’t classify Lard of the Rings as edible unless you hate your life and want to die.
