Tokyo.com The chef, Mao Sugiyama, introducing himself. Japanese
illustrator Mao Sugiyama had his genitals removed on his
birthday, March 31. A couple of weeks later, he served those
genitals -- scrotum, testicles and penis -- at a special dinner
where six "lucky" individuals paid the equivalent of $250 to
consume them.  Sugiyama advertised this unique meal via Twitter,
where he described the goods in detail, an initial asking price
of 100,000 Yen ($1,255), and certification that he has been
cleared of all venereal diseases. This spawned enough interest
that he organized an April 13 event aptly named "Ham Cybele --
Century Banquet". Cybele, as he explained in the event
description, is a reference to the Anatolian goddess of the same
name whose adherents offered up a bull's testes to the goddess.
