Japanese Banquet of Cannibalism

Japan as a country never stops amazing us. I am sure you have heard of, or seen the “Nyotaimori” (literally means female body plate), where the restaurant serves sushi and sashimi on a naked woman’s body.

If that is not weird enough , Japan has just invented another way of eating, where a “body” is made from food and placed on an operating table, much as though in a hospital.

You can operate anyway and anywhere you want by cutting open the body and eating what you find inside. The body will actually bleed as you cut it and the intestines and organs inside are completely editable. It’s a banquet of Cannibalism.

Excuse you but I don’t know if you have sen the news recently. But american are just as sick if not more. My brother can’t even stand on ur street without the fear of being shot. So before you get all judgemental, take a look in the newspaper, or better yet the mirror.

wait… huh? If you live in fear of being shot in America… leave or move or do something, but don’t whatever you do stand on that corner, especially when that lowrider caddy comes up creepin. and thats all im saying. Oh yeah Japs are way sicker than americans. just culturally we’re sort of opposite.

eating people or babies is disguting and immoral!! what is wrong with the japanese and this person who says that her brother cant stand in the street without the fear of being shot, at least if he gets shot he doesnthave to worry about the nurses eating his leg! he cant go back to japan for fear of being slashed across the throat to be consumed by you guys. this is sick and disguting I am never going to Japan. no wonder the people over there fraid to get fat, they might be eaten!

Actually, the first bit is true, but it has nothing to do with cannibalism, the Japanese are just appreciating the female body. The second part, could be photoshop, or maybe it was a funny cake made for a surgeon’s birthday…. because this is not a common thing

Great, now to go with using the bubonic plague as a weapon against the Chinese and countless war-time atrocities for which they show no remorse, these sick Jap bastards can live out twisted fantasies of eating somebody; notice how they’re all smiling? There’s something seriously wrong with their collective psyche

China and Japan are TWO DISTINCT COUNTRIES ande not both the same place. I recommend you buy an atlas or even just download Google Earth or something and learn where these places are before making kneejerk reactionary moronic comments

IT NOT A REAL BODY (yet!!!)

Comment by Chloe
2007-08-04 22:45:48

That’s kind of funny, because if you had read his comment you would see that he was saying the Japanese used the plague ON the Chinese as a form of biological warfare. Talk about making knee-jerk reactionary moronic comments!

I agree, I mean some cultures would think most of the western population were sickos for eating beef.

I’m not approving cannabalism at all, but this kind of meal is an interesting concept.

I totally agree like where can I get some of that dough body. Maybe I am just sick and twisted but that really adds new meaning to the word desert. I think it would be a fun evening.

PS for all you guys making racial comments above… I am totally a white girl. So I guess were all just human, just very different no matter our race.

I think the concept is interesting. It’s not like they’re actually killing people and eating them. It’s a person made from food. Nothing wrong with that.

Personally, I wouldn’t eat anything off of another person (referencing the first part of the story) … esp. since you don’t know how long it’s been since they’ve showered, had sex, etc. That just seems nasty.

Comment by SWRilea
2007-12-09 04:09:20

Actually, with the thing of eating sushi off of people, the models are always cleaned before and after the food is placed on them. I’m not sure what to say about the sex part though…

I think the body, if made of food should be made of a selection of meats. This would give it greater impact. One could almost have a crackiling surface, something really to sink one’s teeth into and reaffirm one’s carniverous past. I’m all for it. Reminds me of tales where starving animals (and occasionally humans) have had to sacrifice offspring or companions in order to survive.

Comment by Aindia
2007-09-18 22:43:59

wow now that is just amazing. to have such barbaric, but thats not even the right word, instincts or sentiments. Like to have it made of cake that would be neat but to have one of meat…some body let you watch to many horror flicks when you were a kid. Would still be a sick dinner party but i think most of my guests would leave. even if they were drunk.

I agree with Anna - the weirdest thing about this is that the pubic region is pixelated.

Cannibalism - very naughty and a little bit tittilating…
Sex - absolutely taboo !

Sushi is really overated and quite boring - give me steak and chips any day. The second picture - the real joke here is that it is a real body - they just have not told them that they are actually eating the real thing

 
Comment by Jen
2007-07-13 04:49:05

The pubic hair is pixellated out due to Japanese pornography laws. Which inclines me to think these pic are genuine. Sounds like a fun meal.

And to the above poster who commented on Nyotaimori, I think part of the appeal is exactly the not knowing when the person last showered, had sex et.c. Different culture, innit.

 
Comment by Ken
2007-07-13 12:21:30

But that pubic hair isn’t even real! In fact, it’s edible! :)

In any event, this stuff is weird and unusual and I’m sure that 99.99% of the Japanese population agree with me.

I wonder if the photos were even taken in Japan. First photo shows 2 gaijin in a large room w grand piano–sure doesn’t look like ANY sushiya in Japan that I have ever seen (most sushiya look about the same). The room looks more like a part of a hotel. Second photo doesn’t look like a restaurant either. The folding screen, the pepper grinder, the furniture. . .none of it looks Japanese. I think the photographer rounded up some Japanese people somewhere outside Japan and posed them for the pictures.
