They Made A Meal Out Of Him

So. This morning I found out about something and..... I definitely have words for it despite how indescribable I feel.

I'll just write what I saw.

In 1991, hikers exploring the Tyrolean Alps between Italy and Austria discovered the mummified remains of a 5,300-year-old man. Scientists nicknamed him Ötzi the Iceman. They learned he was balding, covered in tattoos, and infected with a cancer-causing strain of HPV.

So what did they naturally do next?

They looked for yeast on the mummy to make sourdough bread. Then decided beer was a reasonable next step. They even put together a specialized research team from the food sector to make it happen.

I don't care what science this is. That's cannibalism. They harvested a mummy and turned him into a loaf. With documented intent to make a beverage out of whatever was left.

These people are sick.

And they published it. Peer reviewed. In a journal. With a face full of mummy.
