The first of a small, special and – well – totally unexpected meat-themed collection, for Trash Day Dec 21 2022. Yeah, the next Dump was in the works already, and I didn’t have any plans to put out any Toter Tots for this, but it just happened organically (as opposed to processed product).
Based on The Perfesser’s assistant ‘Meat Art Bot’ which was conjured for Trash Day Dec 2022. ‘Meat Art Bot’ replaces ‘Trash Art Bot’ who was unceremoniously banned from Twitter after serving us well for Trash Day Jul 2022 (RIP, subject of a Toter Tot). Looking like he’s been sculpted in AI from a serving of Steak tartare,

Meat Art Bot has plenty of visual personality, but what do we really know about him?
A little digging using my social history background turned up US government records for a certain Charles ’Chuck’ Steak, born in New York in 1984. Apparently Chuck was found as an infant near the Topps company headquarters, in the back alley behind a commercial butchery in Whitehall Street, Lower Manhattan.
He is assumed to have been born illegitimately of a raw egg and some ground beef, and subsequently abandoned in a dumpster at birth by his parents.
