fresh flesh

I don't know if this would count as good or bad, but I never heard about this before.
Probably when it happened and created the stir (2001), I was in OEC busy downloading stuff.

Armin Meiwes (born December 1, 1961) is a German man who achieved international notoriety for killing and eating a voluntary victim he had found via the Internet. After Meiwes and the victim jointly attempted to eat the victim's severed penis, Meiwes killed his victim and proceeded to eat a large amount of his flesh.

Because of his deeds, Meiwes is also known as the "
Rotenburg Cannibal" or "Der Metzgermeister" (Master Butcher). Since entering prison, Meiwes has become a vegetarian and has joined a prisoners' group favoring Green Party politics.

Meiwes posted an advertisement on the Internet, looking for a willing victim. The post stated that he was "looking for a well-built 18 to 30-year-old to be slaughtered and then consumed".
Bernd Jürgen Brandes responded to the advertisement. Bernd Jürgen Brandes was known for his interest in crossdressing. Many other people responded to the advertisement, but many backed out and none were forced to do anything they didn't want to do by Meiwes.
As is known from a videotape the two made when they met on
December 25th 2001 in Meiwes' home, Meiwes amputated Brandes' penis and the two men attempted to eat the penis together before Brandes was killed. Brandes had insisted that Meiwes attempt to bite his penis off. This did not work, so Meiwes used a knife. Brandes apparently tried to eat some of his own penis raw, but could not because it was too tough and, as he put it, "chewy". Meiwes then sautéed the penis in a pan with salt, pepper, and garlic, but by then it was too burned to be consumed. According to journalists who saw the video (which has not been made public), Brandes may already have been too weakened from blood loss to actually eat any of his penis. Meiwes read a Star Trek book for three hours whilst his victim was bleeding to death in the bath. Meiwes apparently gave him large quantities of alcohol and pain killers, 30 sleeping pills and a bottle of schnapps, finally, he kissed him once and killed him in a room that he had built in his house for this purpose, The Slaughter Room. After stabbing Brandes to death in the throat, he hung the body on a meathook and tore hunks of flesh from it; he even tried to grind the bones to use as flour. The whole scene was recorded on the two-hour video tape. Meiwes ate the body over the next 10 months, storing body parts in his freezer under pizza boxes and consuming up to 20 kg of the flesh.

I was digging some weird maps, and one of the maps interestingly came out as a map of cannibalism still active in the world. Of course it's just some rare and presumed spots somewhere in some jungle out of nowehere. Anyway the article mentioned in the beginning, glamourously, Meiwes, which I thought was a joke. but when I researched I found, to my astonishement, that it really happened.

You know what is the worst now? some clubs of 'fascinated', insane, and copycats were created as a portal for "demand and offer" sort of thing. got it?
