Obviously time to bring out the infamous Republican cannibal Alferd (not “Alfred”) Packer.

In 1968, students at the University of Colorado Boulder named their new cafeteria grill the “Alferd G. Packer Memorial Grill”, with the slogan, “Have a friend for lunch!”

In 1977, the US Secretary of Agriculture, Bob Bergland, attempted to terminate a contract for the department’s cafeteria food service but was prevented by the General Services Administration (GSA). To embarrass the GSA, Bergland and his employees convened a press conference on August 10, 1977, to unveil a plaque naming the executive cafeteria “The Alferd Packer Memorial Grill”, announcing that Packer’s life exemplified the spirit and fare of the cafeteria and would “serve all mankind”.

The annual Philadelphia Folk Festival features a dining tent emblazoned with the tongue-in-cheek moniker: “The Alfred E. Packer Memorial Dining Hall…serving humanity since 1874”.
