Now serving people at the cannibal cafe in Nigeria.


http://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/foodnews/nigerian-restaurant-shut-down-for-serving-human-flesh/ar-BBjQfOB


Sad and horrifying and gross and true.

A hotel restaurant in Anambra, Nigeria has been shuttered by authorities for serving human flesh. According to the BBC, suspicious residents told police of rumors that the restaurant was cooking human meat for customers. Police then raided the restaurant, where they discovered fresh human heads that were still bleeding. The blood was in the process of being drained into a plastic bag.

In addition to the illegal meat, authorities discovered automatic weapons, grenades, and cell phones. Ten people were arrested in conjunction with the crimes. One resident said, "Every time I went to the market, I observed strange activities going on in the hotel. People who were never cleanly dressed and who looked a bit strange made their way in and out of the hotel, making me very suspicious of their activities. I am not surprised at the shocking revelation."

A priest who ate at the restaurant was surprised when presented with a bill of 700 Naira, or roughly $3.50 (Tens of millions of people in Nigeria subsist on less than $1 a day). "The attendant noticed my reaction and told me it was the small piece of meat I had eaten that made the bill scale that high," he said. "I did not know I had been served with human meat, and that it was that expensive."

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised.

What a shame as it had wonderful trappings to be a delicious story. What I find odd is while the human meat serving was disproven the finding of severed heads in the restaurant appears to be legit and strangely treated as though it's not a big deal. Sure there were a pair heads floating about in there but it was only done to discredit the business. WTF? Like human heads just casually happen?
