WASHINGTON, Sept. 1 (UPI) -- A mistake on a wedding RSVP card accidentally listed young children as one of three entree items on the menu.

A photo of the card shared to Reddit by user moxin84 listed three menu options including pork, beef and "child (12 and under)."

"I'll have the 10 year old, please, medium rare..." the poster wrote.

The card also encouraged guests to inform the wedding party of any dietary restrictions despite the unintentionally cannibalistic nature of the entree choices.
