The Wurst: Sausage From Human Blood

Thursday March 6, 2008

Two German air force sergeants are facing court martial for a sausage recipe that called for pork, onions, bacon, spices breadcrumbs, and their comrades' blood.

The soldiers, stationed near Munich, had earlier used their own blood in sausage, according to Britain's Telegraph.

Only after the two began soliciting blood from others did their weird wienie roasting come to light.

“I have been asked to give blood for sausage-making and I want to know if this is against regulations," one soldier asked superior officers, according to the paper.

Among the items allegedly seized from the two airmen: a hand-written family recipe. It had a notation from grandma: "Make sure the blood is fresh."
