A website advertising a new restaurant in Germany has called for humans to donate body parts for the menu causing outrage.
The online campaign by Flime in Berlin has called for diners to "donate any part of their body" as well as looking for an "open-minded surgeon".
However, politicians have condemned the restaurant for being a tasteless PR stunt according to Der Spiegel.
So far the location of the restaurant, if there is one, has not been disclosed.
"Members" willing to participate in the cannibal "Wari-culture" of the restaurant are asked to fill out a form.
It includes questions about medical fitness, Body Mass Index, how often one exercises and even if the donor is pregnant.
The restaurant claims to be inspired by the "compassionate cannibalism" of the Brazilian Waricaca tribe.
The website explains: "We see feasting as a spiritual act, in which the spirit and strength of the consumed creature is given to the guests."
Michael Braun, vice chairman of Berlin's Christian Democrats told Bild newspaper that he had received emails complaining about the restaurant.
He said: "I am assuming it is a misguided joke. But it is disgusting.
"In particular because a resident of Berlin was murdered by a cannibal not too long ago."
It is thought that he was referring to self-styled cannibal Armin Meiwes who was sentenced to life in 2006 after killing and eating a fellow Berliner who volunteered for the task.
Bernd Jurgen Brandes, a computer technician, volunteered to be eaten by Meiwes in 2001. The cannibal chopped off Brandes' penis and ate it after cooking it in garlic, salt and pepper.

ummmm, body parts
How long before they are eating babies?
The state has no business interfering in what two consenting adults do in the privacy of their own kitchen...< /sarcasm>
I’ve been looking for a good fried egg and placenta breakfast with fresh, homemade corned beef hash on the side.
i wonder if this place is any good.???
Hmmm...maybe Obama and Michelle could go there on their “date night”.
Speaking of corned beef i just remembered that i have an awesome roast beef sub sitting in the fridge that i almost forgot about.
jeeez....
I suppose opening a restaurant in Milwaukee called “Dahmer’s” would be on a par with this....
“Tonight’s special: Korean”
Other items on the menu include fava beans and nice Chianti.
“How long before they are eating babies?”
A modest proposal? I would assume they will start eating babies when the Soylent Green runs out.
Note to self, while in Germany refrain from saying “bite-me.”
I can see the food section now:
“the chops were good, but they cost an arm and a leg...”
Only they tried to flambe the part and it was tough. They then tried saute and it wasn't much better.
At what point did Brandes figure out that the guy he wanted to eat him couldn't cook!
Sooo inappropriate, but I laughed for days.
Do they serve Fava beans and Chianti?
I remember the story too, and found it utterly shocking. Only a philistine would ever serve penis with garlic.
Thanks, you made me chuckle.
Dark wit is rare nowadays.
Here’s the gory details on Armin the cannibal.

I would contribute but I’m running short having given a leg, arm and left testicle to the IRS.
