Russia is Apparently Full of Cannibals


Maybe it's something in the water, but Russians seemingly can't get enough of each other when it comes to dinner.

I didn't post it, but I found this story last week about a man who ate his own mother. Then this morning there is this story about three homeless men who ate one of their own and sold parts of his body to a meat shop. (On top of all else, I have to wonder what kind of a meat shop just buys unidentified meat from homeless guys off the street.) Parts of the victim's body were later found at a bus stop near the Russian city of Perm.

The three real-life Hannibal Lecters are believed to have killed their 25-year-old brother in homelessness with knives and a hammer before chopping up his body and eating it.

The story in Pravda states that it is unclear whether any pieces of the corpse were sold to customers of the meat shop, which specialized in shwarma (a type of meat sandwich) and pies.

I wonder how the folks at HotRussianBrides.com might feel about this.

Russia sure is a crazy place. I love it.
