About this listen

Meet Tarrare, an 18th-century Frenchman whose hunger knew no limits—literally. He ate corks, live animals, and even, allegedly, human flesh. In this episode of The House Red, we dig into the bizarre, unsettling, and tragic tale of history’s most ravenous man. Was he cursed, sick, or something science still can’t explain? So grab a snack… or maybe don’t.
