Social media users are alleging that wealthy elites are eating mermaids in order to maintain their status in a bizarre new conspiracy theory that has been making rounds online.
Earlier this month, videos of users claiming to know people who caught and worked with these fantastical creatures within the culinary industry started to go viral on TikTok. The videos allege that dinner parties are being hosted by those with immense wealth where "mermaid flesh" is served, sometimes even referred to as "filet of mermaid," and some have reported elevated or even supernatural capabilities after consuming the meal.
