Japanese man, 22, cooks his own genitals and serves them up to paying guests at a dinner party

I have to own up and say that I always thought the Japanese a bit odd in general but this really takes the biscuit! When I lived in Japan, I remember a TV show that aired during prime-time e.g. during family viewing hours where the object of the game was for schoolgirls to be catapulted unto the air by a middle aged man lying on his back to see whose panties showed the most! Err...um...yeah, right...perfect for family viewing!

Now it appears a man who had his genitals removed seasoned them before cooking them for five paying dinner party guests. Mao Sugiyama, 22, who is asexual, had voluntarily undergone surgery to have them removed. But the illustrator took his frozen penis and scrotum home from hospital and organised a grim party.

Grim: Mao Sugiyama, 22, prepares to serve up his genitals as dinner for five paying guests at a party he organised in Tokyo, Japan. He charged guests around £160 per person to eat his severed genitalia in Tokyo, Japan. They were garnished with mushrooms and parsley. Before tucking into dinner, guests sat down to listen to a piano recital and take part in a panel discussion, CalorieLab.com reported.

Mao, who goes by the nickname HC, had initially considered eating his own penis – but decided to serve them up instead. He cooked the genitalia himself as he was supervised by a chef. In a Tweet, he offered to cook his penis for a guest for £800. However, he ultimately decided to split the ‘meal’ between six guests. He wrote on Twitter: ‘I am offering my male genitals (full penis, testes, scrotum) as a meal for 100,000 yen (£800). I’m Japanese.

So, if you thought the Japanese were very prim and proper, now you know that there is something of a weirdness inherent in the Japanese psyche!
