Wealth, exotic eating & an extreme chef

This is a news story that could appeal to Peter Greenaway, or perhaps to a mutant marxist with a penchant for allegory, and definitely to a gourmand. The ingredients of this tale are a near-Nietzschean Japanese hunter-chef in the USA, an ark-sized refrigerator full of carcasses of endangered species, the underground appetites of the rich and famous, and a hint of cannibalism.

Update: alas, this is a hoax!
