This reminds me of the Upright Citizens Brigade "Food" episode of season 3 with the Happy Bakery...
Stolen from here:
- hi
- hi! welcome to happy bakery, how can i help you?
- actually i need to make a complaint, i was just in here and i wanted the big boy muffin?
- oh yeah... i remember you, you wanted something really big
- yeah, this was really big
- size of a baby's head
- right, which is exactly what you said when you wrapped it up for me. but what you didn't say, and this is probably my fault for not paying attention, is that it's actually the shape of a baby's head as well.
- yeah
- i can't eat that
- ok... just pick something else up free of charge
- thank you, what else do you have?
- well we have a couple of specials today, we have a little boy huddled over weeping, we have an innocent man in an electric chair, and we also have white frosted cops beating up an oat bran activist.
- (another customer) hey, give me a half cafe latte and a homeless man urinating on himself to go
- you got it
- (back to first customer) so, have you umm found out what you want?
- no, they're all horrible, don't you have any normal muffins?
- ohh.. we have a cake, it's shaped like the atomic bomb that was dropped on hiroshima, we could cut off the mushroom cloud part and that would kinda look like a regular muffin..
- no thanks. you know your sign up there says 'happy bakery', you'd think you'd have something to eat besides tragedy and misery.
- ew, i'm sorry, at happy bakery we don't eat happy things to make us happy, we eat things we want to get rid of to make us feel better.
- i don't understand
- okay, let me explain. take this atm fee muffin for example. you buy the muffin, confronting your problem with the atm fees, then you chew the muffin, understanding those fees, right? right? and then you're chewing and then you swallow the muffin accepting those fees, until finally the muffin passes through you and out you and into the toilet, we flush away those fees forever. and then you're finally happy
- ok. then i'll have an impotent genitalia and, an overbearing mother with blueberries... and a cheating wife... and a father who was never there... with nuts...
- ohh.. i'm sorry, we only have them without nuts
- that's okay. he lost them in vietnam

The shop window looks like one of those Thai newspapers/magazines that are full of pictures of dismembered human body parts and car crashes.

JayG what the holy fucking hell? "(with pictures)" is not nearly enough to encapsulate how disturbing said pictures are. The inclusion of all those emoticons just makes it worse. The author also neglects to mention WHY (god oh god why) the people in the photos are eating the dead guy. Hands-on research..?

There is no actaul evidence the Thai doctors are eating the body.
However, there is abundant evidence they are actually chopping it up, which was quite horrifying to see.

I would love it if I could get something like this locally, I would have this delivered to work for every fucking potluck my company "encourages" us to be involved in.
And I would eat them at my desk with a kind of enthusiasm specifically designed to make sure my co-workers didn't speak to me again for at least a week.

Good point, Astro, but my mind still pines for an answer to the question of WHY. And the last 2 pictures certainly suggest that the man-meat was cooked and served on paper plates. Although, the author of the post seems uncertain. And the casual inclusion of some emoticons again makes it all that much more creepy.

The last two pictures "suggest" they're eating the body as much as any other picture in a similar setting of people cooking and eating would "suggest" that. Still no idea why they were doing that, since it's not in a lab or anything, doesn't seem very sanitary, and just seems to be about getting him as chopped up as possible. Also, assuming that's some on-site lunch with non-human meat in it, I can't begin to imagine the transition to eating.
Anyway, that was awful, JayG. I guess that graphically shows some solutions to the famous question concerning disposing the body.

Bakery with fake body parts = cool (especially for a Halloween party) / Man barbecue = odd and creepy.
I've been to several cadaver labs as part of my college courses and those were amazing. However a cadaver lab and chopping some guy up in a field are completely different things! Yikes!

You do it in the lab so you'll know how it's done in the field. Wasn't that explained to you?

If they were really doing research, you'd expect to see happen in a lab with some scalpels, dissecting tools and a stryker saw or two. Not see him being butchered like a pig in some skanky field with a collection of cleavers and machetes, while somebody fires up the barbecue in the background.

GRAAAAAAINS!?
After seeing JayG's link, I'm never eating people ever again.
Seriously, if he consented to being eaten prior to his death, I'm really A-OK with it, possibly even amazed. If not, then it may very well be the most disgusting thing I have ever seen. Yes, the line is that thin.
Having had surgery to remove a broken organ recently and getting pics of said broken organ has given me a whole new perspective on our meat-creature-ness.
