In UNWIND, unwanted teens are used for their body parts, with the understanding that 100 percent of them must be used in transplant so “technically” they’re still alive.  However, this has created a society where buying and selling body parts, and brain tissue has become big business.  It is not unusual in this dystopian society  for a person to be made up of several different people.  But how can that be represented in a recipe?  That’s when I came up with UNWOUND COOKIES. . .   The whole might be greater than the sum of the parts, but when it comes to people, it’s important to consider where those parts came from . . .
