From the BBC (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wiltshire-12860235):

Quote
Thieves have stolen an 18kg (40lb) frozen kebab from a takeaway outlet at Trowbridge railway station.

The massive block of meat, with a metal skewer running through the centre, was taken from La Capricciosa between 0230 GMT and 1400 GMT on Saturday.

The haul, valued at about ^400, included bags of frozen chips and onion rings and 500 polystyrene kebab trays.

Anyone offered kebab meat in suspicious circumstances is asked to contact British Transport police.

Det Sgt Jon Rawson said: "If you are aware of anyone who has recently come into possession of kebab meat, or may perhaps be offering kebabs for sale when they are not usually in that line of business, we would appreciate your call."

it's debatable whether that stuff should be classed as "meat"!

Out of the haul the thieves got away with, I'd suggest that the most nutritious would be the polystyrene trays.  ;D
