Free! Human Flesh Burgers

Chef creates burgers that taste like human FLESH

James Thomlinson designed his burger using gory testimonials describing the taste of human flesh, mixing veal, chicken livers, bone marrow and pork to make the macabre meal.

The burgers were inspired by the season four finale of FOX TV series The Walking Dead, in which lead character Rick Grimes, played by British actor Andrew Lincoln, discovered human remains which looked to have been eaten by zombies, or ‘Walkers’.

Without having ever tasted human flesh, Mr Thomlinson, who runs culinary company London Mess, researched accounts of cannibalism to make it taste as authentic as possible.
