It will probably surprise many people -- some of them agreeably -- to know that it is not illegal in Germany to eat a corpse, providing you can find one of course. Last year, Armin Meiwes was convicted of manslaughter after he cut off the penis of a man called Bernd Brandes, the willing partner to an unusual banquet. Meiwes sautéed the appendage lightly, and dined on it along with the amputee. Thereafter, Brandes climbed into the bath, where he slowly bled his life away, until Meiwes delivered the coup de grâce with a carving knife. Thereafter Meiwes ate most of Brandes over a 10 month period.
