"This is awesome," posted Brad. "Anthony Bourdain admits that he would eat a human…"

"Gosh I love this guy," said Kaveri.

"And people think Twilight fans are nuts," Twilight Lexicon wrote referring to the eccentric food critic.

"Ah Bourdain you've done it again," posted Karen, while Ryan was unsurprised by the best-selling author's admission about eating human, posting: "Um, of course he would."

The host of the Travel Channel's "No Reservations" added his opinions about the Olive Garden as well as the James Beard House, about which he asked: "Why don't they turn the house into something useful like a methadone clinic?"

Outspoken and often using explicit terms, Bourdain also told a young girl in the crowd how he would choose to cook a unicorn. The chef said he would roast the loin, grill the legs, braise the forequarter and use the horn to pick his teeth with, before adding that unicorn bone marrow is delicious.

"Yesterday: googamooga no like," Bourdain posted on his Twitter account about the Brooklyn event. "Today: better. Lots better. Even kinda awesome."

He later added, "Saturday at googamooga: goat rodeo. Sunday: a good time."

The first-ever GoogaMooga, described as a "New York music festival with as much focus on the food and drink," received high praises from foodies in the area, according to Capital New York.

"It's a first year event and, you know, we're gonna learn and make things better, and it's all a learning experience and we just wanna throw the best possible festival we can," said Kerry Black, a co-founder of Superfly which backed GoogaMooga, according to the online newspaper.
