[Please retweet] I am offering my male genitals (full penis, testes, scrotum) as a meal for 100,000 yen …Will prepare and cook as the buyer requests, at his chosen location.
In the almost 11 years I’ve been blogging, I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a headline that I’ve found quite so…disturbing:
Mao Sugiyama Cooks, Serves Own Genitals At Banquet In Tokyo
Just let that sink in for a moment, ‘kay?
I realize that Japanese culinary predilections are generally quite different from what might tickle the American palate, but still….
Sugiyama, who identifies as asexual, which to him means that he identifies with neither gender. Somewhere along the line Sugiyama evidently decided that he no longer had any need for his genitalia. I don’t know about you, but I’m rather attached to mine…and not because mine are actually attached to me. Like any guy, the mere thought of being separated from my little friend is rather cringe-inducing.
I’m familiar with Rocky Mountain Oysters, but….
Shortly after his 22nd birthday, Sugiyama underwent elective surgery to have his genitalia removed. He then…
divvied up the severed penis shaft, testicles, and scrotal skin between five people, and garnished it with button mushrooms and Italian parsley.
The meal was served to five lucky foodies who paid $250 apiece for the…um, privilege of consuming a portion of Sugiyama’s genitalia. (The article comes complete with pictures, which I wouldn’t recommend viewing if you’re eating.)
I don’t know about you, but if- and that’s a big “IF”- I was planning to serve up my genitalia with button mushrooms and Italian parsley, I’d be charging a helluva lot more that $250 a head. I’m thinking someone severely undervalued his manhood….
