Ohhh, that reminds me of a story that was on American television many years ago. Had David Carradine in a staring role. I think it might have been on one of the later iterations of The Twilight Zone. He and his wife lived out in a desert area with a lot of junk cars and stuff around their remote home. They had an old-fashioned well, the kind you lowered a bucket into. I forget how, but one day something fell down the well and a note came back up with the bucket saying "tasted good" and included a small fortune in golden objects. Evidently some underground population of creatures had access to this loot and wanted to trade for food. He was greedy and would send down food and loot came back. Finally he couldn't resist and went down himself to see if he could steal the rest of the loot. . . you guessed it: the last note the wife got in the bucket filled with treasures was "Tasted good, like chicken."
