SANTIAGO, Chile — "Bon appetit," said Chilean artist Marco Evaristti as he presented his friends with his newest creation: meatballs cooked with fat from his own body, extracted by liposuction.
"Ladies and gentleman, bon appetit and may god bless," said Evaristti, a glass in his hand, to his dining companions seated last Thursday night around a table in Santiago's Animal Gallery.
On the plates in front of them was a serving of agnolotti pasta and in the middle a meatball made with oil Evaristti removed from his body in a liposuction procedure last year.
"The question of whether or not to eat human flesh is more important than the result," he said, explaining the point of his creation.
"You are not a cannibal if you eat art," he added.
Evaristti produced 48 meatballs with his own fat, some of which would be canned and sold for $US4000 dollars for 10.
A veteran at shock-art, in an earlier work Evaristti invited people to kill fish by pressing the button on a blender the fish were held in.

Thanks for posting that picture. I had forgotten how much I loved that movie..well, except for the marionette sex-that I did not need to see.
Long pig. No thanks.
That's really nauseating. Dude should be flogged.
In general I like that idea as a test of how sick people can be. I wouldn't plug-in the blender though, maybe put some chopped fish scraps in a couple of blenders to make people think they work.
Bon Appétit!
aka 'Raoul'...
Uhhhh. I don't know what is sicker. His naked pose or his fried fat.
I can't take it.
He should be tied to a tree and beaten. Sick.
No. I think it would enjoy it. Then tape it and upload it as art.
Don't do that.
It's supposed to be used to make boutique soaps for rich women.
I am Jack's utter contempt.
I eat cannibals... it's incredible... It brings out the animal in me.
I eat cannibals.
If he didn't and he served them to me , he'd be swallowing his own teeth. Of course, I wouldn't be friends with such a self-centered nutcase in the first place.
I'm willing to bet good money he's gay, hence the popularity with the media- and gay men are never loneley as long as there are public restrooms they can meet each other in...
what a filthy disgusting lifestyle...
Plus this guy is totally 
That is extremely sick!! I'll bet he is some flavor of Liberal.
This is as disgusting as the HBO program I viewed several years ago about the weird around the world. One in particular was a British woman who saved her placenta after having a baby. After storing it in the refrigerator, she cooked the human tissue and made a pate then served it to guests on crackers at a houseparty she hosted. Yuck!
