Nyotaimori(Japanese: 女体盛り, "female body presentation"), often referred to as "body sushi," is the practice of eating sashimi or sushi from the body of a woman, typically naked. Nantaimori (Japanese: 男体盛り) refers to the same practice using a male model. This subdivision of food play is originally an obscure Japanese practice that has attracted considerable international media attention. As a result of being served on a human body, the temperature of the sushi or sashimi comes closer to body temperature.

[edit] Variations
[edit] Male platters
Less common, but not unheard of, is the practice of using a male model for the same purpose, called nantaimori (Japanese: 男体盛り).
[edit] Being bound
Another variation of the human platter is the "bondage sushi bar", which can be found in some BDSM conventions and play parties in Britain and in Europe. In this variation, the individual acting as a living sushi plate is tied up to hinder movement or prevent it altogether. Nyotaimori could be considered a form of erotic humiliation[citation needed].
[edit] Procedures for the human platter
Before becoming a living sushi platter, the person is trained to lie down for hours without moving. She or he must also be able to withstand the prolonged exposure to the cold food. Body hair, including pubic hair, would also be shaved, as a display of pubic hair may be seen as a sexual act.[citation needed]
Before service, the individual would take a bath using a special fragrance-free soap and then finish off with a splash of cold water to cool the body down somewhat for the sushi.
In some parts of the world, in order to comply with sanitation laws, there must be a layer of plastic or other material between the sushi and the body of the woman or man. Wrapping a naked person in cling film may also be regarded as a form of fetishism.
[edit] Worldwide reception
While legal in most jurisdictions, nyotaimori can cause some friction in more conservative societies.
[edit] West
Western media reporting of the phenomenon spreading to the U.S. and Germany severely misrepresents this to the point that it is perceived in Japan as a European meme.[verification needed] The practice of nyotaimori has swept through Europe, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles.[1]
[edit] China
Nyotaimori is currently illegal in China. [2]
[edit] In popular culture
Nyotaimori is parodied in the 2009 film Brüno. The title character serves sushi to Paula Abdul on the body of a naked Mexican man, causing her to leave in disgust.
