“What does a cannibal call a skateboarder?”/“Meals on wheels.”

A cannibal riddle is:
 
Q: What does a cannibal call a skateboarder?
A: Meals on wheels.

 
The joke has been cited in print since at least 2003.
 
     
Wikipedia: Meals on Wheels
Meals on Wheels is a programme that delivers meals to individuals at home who are unable to purchase or prepare their own meals. The name is often used generically to refer to home-delivered meals programmes, not all of which are actually named “Meals on Wheels”. Because they are housebound, many of the recipients are the elderly, and many of the volunteers are also elderly but able-bodied and able to drive wheeled vehicles.
