Pope's 81st Birthday Cake

Since he's already satiated his sweet tooth with a giant birthday cake, entice and make him salivate with a menu featuring tender young kid. That's the mistake made by the chef planning tonight's White House dinner in honor of Pope Benedict XVI. No kid on the menu.

As a result, the Pope did not attend the dinner. But just because the kids escaped with their lives, don't think that all baby farm animals are going to escape passage from lips to loins. Baby cows will be eaten by the five Catholic Supreme Court Justices who are among 250 guests attending the dinner.

In addition to veal, the menu includes: morel-encrusted diver scallops, spatzle, angel hair asparagus bisque, white truffle-potato dumplings, carrots and mushrooms, lettuces and candied pumpkin seeds, squash carpaccio, pumpkin oil vinaigrette, raspberry crisp and mint coulis.
