Soylent red
Soylent red is a discredited substance, most likely a hoax perpetrated by con artists who sought to take advantage of gullible buyers on the black market for arms. These con artists described it as a human-derived substance used in the creation of nuclear weapons; because of the secrecy surrounding nuclear weapons development, it is difficult to disprove their claims completely. However, all samples of alleged "Soylent red" analyzed in the public literature have proven to be well-known, common substances of no interest to weapons makers.
It was the subject of Richard Fleischer's 1973 documentary film Soylent Red, noted for its final intimate interview with retired college professor Edward G. Robinson.
