An event where punters pay €300 to eat sushi off a naked woman’s body is taking place in the capital today.The Dublin organisers Body Finger Food say people pick sushi off the model’s body using chopsticks.
Others have argued it is humiliating and cruel and claim the nyotaimori practice is wrongfully marketed in countries like Ireland as a form of Japanese food culture.But fans say nyotaimori is dignified and that the model is a paid artist. The Dublin organisers said: “Do not take pictures or recordings without the model’s or event organiser’s express consent.
The Dublin organisers state that nyotaimori, which comes from the Japanese word nyota for woman and taimori for plate, originated between 1603 and 1868 of the Samurai period.
