Zombie fans are well aware that these terrifying creatures love to eat brains, and chef Mark Jankel has decided to open up a food truck called, 'Gory Gourmet' that -- um, -- feeds on this idea. The only items on the menu in this fast food truck are a variety of animal organs. The concept by well-known London chef Jankel serves patrons a variety of brain foods, as well as some other gruesome body parts.
If patrons are feeling adventurous and a little ghoulish, they can choose to try the Big Brain Burger, Crispy Brain Dippers, Brain Salad Wrap, Feet & Thyroid Nuggets or some Skewered Hearts. This concept is a lot to stomach, but definitely something that is sure to get a lot of attention.
