Woman's Fingertip Bitten off At Meat Mart Market Cat Fight Posted: 3 months ago by VictorDoppelt
Two women at a Tampa Bay butcher shop got into an argument over who was next to be served and one decided to settle the argument by biting the other's fingertip off.
After that, the first woman left, telling the butcher that he could go ahead and serve the now fingerless second woman since she now had all the meat she needed.
The first woman was heard to remark that she planned on serving the fingertip with fava beans and a nice bottle of wine. (Okay I made the part about the fava beans up.)

The body will actually bleed as you cut it and the intestines and organs inside are completely edible
