Human flesh burger created to celebrate series five of The Walking Dead

If you think you"ve tasted every possible burger combination on the planet, you haven"t. Because you"ve never tasted the human flesh burger.

But before you dial 999 and report us to the authorities, we should make it clear that the burger isn"t actually made of human flesh. It just tastes like it. Apparently.

The controversial cannibal burger has been developed by Messhead – a collaboration between London-based food creatives Miss Cakehead and Mess London chef James Thomlinson – to mark the launch of season 5 of The Walking Dead.

Oh you know, just some raw human flesh burgers (Picture: Fox)

But how do you even go about creating a burger that tastes of human flesh, without, you know, having tasted it?

Well the Messhead team came up with a genius, if somewhat gory, solution. They studied the testimonials of infamous cannibals, including the author and joualist William Seabrook, who described the taste of human flesh as being like ‘good, fully developed veal, not young, but not yet beef".  Shudder.

And after much experimenting the Messhead"s decided a burger mix including pork, veal, chicken livers and bone marrow best replicated the taste and texture.

If you"re feeling adventurous, you can grab yourself a free bite of a human flesh burger on Tuesday 30th September from the Terminus Tave pop-up in a secret location in East London (to be revealed via the #terminustave hashtag on twitter).

As for us, we think we"ll give it a miss. Suddenly going veggie has never seemed so appealing.
