Human Feet Are Being Served In A Chinese Restaurant In Italy

Human Feet Are Being Served In A Chinese Restaurant In Italy

So it's Friday night and I'm guessing that those of you not planning to go out because you're having a dry / broke January will be looking to order a takeaway. It's only right.

Now I'm not going to say what type of takeaway you should order - although obviously Indian is the best way to go - all I'm going to do is provide you will some information that might affect your decision.

A Chinese restaurant has been accused of serving human feet after a waiter posted a photo - allegedly taken in the kitchen - to social media.

The photo shows what looks like two severed and partially decomposed human feet in a blue bowl, it surfaced after a diner from Slovenia went with friends to a restaurant in Padua, in northern Italy.

They asked for the Chinese delicacy of bear paws, and the waiter, who has not been named, claims his picture of human feet were the 'bear paws' that he served.

Here's the picture...

After seeing the disturbing picture on social media, a regular Italian customer reported it to the police and food standards officials, who inspected the restaurant and found 55lbs of meat and frozen fish of dubious origin.

Police have consulted a forensic pathologist about the picture to determine whether they're human, and say they are still investigating where and when the image was taken.

The restaurant's legal status and whether it is still operating are unclear, but lets hope your local takeout isn't following the same recipe, aye?
