Today's featured Wikipedia entry is Charles Domery, a Polish soldier whose extreme hunger resulted in desertion from the Prussians to join the French Revolutionary Army in 1792 in search of better rations. As a prisoner of war in Liverpool, he received 10 times the normal amount of food. He reportedly ate 174 cats in a calendar year and would eat 4 or 5 pounds of grass a day if no other food was on hand. (via Wild Bill)
