Default interesting sponsorship

I work part time in a charity second-hand bookshop. Had an interesting
donation today; a set of Italian cookbooks (in tall pocket-diary format)
by authors including Anna del Conte, sponsored by, of all people, the
Banco Ambrosiano, for distribution to clients and business guests.

Hang your lamb carcass off a bridge with its feet dangling in the tide
before cooking, perhaps?

One volume was "The Banker's Diet" which does make a perverted sort
of sense (probably not very different in its requirements from "The
Couch Potato Computer Gamer's Diet").
