Mao Sugiyama Cooks, Serves Own Genitals At Banquet In Tokyo

his chef's got balls.

Mao Sugiyama, a self-described "asexual" from Tokyo, cooked up, seasoned and served his own genitalia to five diners at a swanky banquet in Japan last month, Calorie Lab reported.

In most cases, "asexual" is a word used to describe a person who is non-sexual. Sugiyama, however, embraces it as a way to show that he does not affiliate with either gender.

Sugiyama sparked a firestorm of interest on April 8 with one tweet:

"[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."

I'm sure an equal question is, why did I click on it? I wish I hadn't.

This is beyond disgusting. I have to go take a shower and brush my teeth.

Those 5 people who paid to eat this have got to be devoid of a soul. It's one thing when your airplane crashes in the Andes or you're stuck in a snowstorm in Donner Pass, but this? Talk about a regrettable decision.

And the consent form.

Of course that's imagining that it was done by a surgeon and not by a butcher.

I should just stop imagining, I suppose.
