The Santorum salad, or something very similar, just might be for real:

I missed this truly astonishing tidbit in my first reading of the wikipedia Pizza Ranch article,

The first restaurant was in Hull, Iowa.[2] In 2001 founder Lawrence Vander Esch was sentenced to 10 years for fondling teenage male employees in Hull after falsely persuading them to donate semen samples for a medical research project.[4] In October 2006 District Court Judge James D. Scott vacated Vander Esch’s convictions, finding that there was essentially consent on the part of the victims even though they were misled.[5]

Note that the victims were two teenage employees of the restaurant, who were fraudulently presuaded to provide the “samples.” The real purpose of this material is not specified and perhaps we don’t want to know.
