A New York man loves pepperoni a little too much.

John Allison, 41, was arrested Wednesday after he allegedly rubbed a stick of pepperoni on his bare penis at a grocery store, The Watertown Daily reports. The incident occurred at a Hannaford store in Massena, N.Y.

Police say after fondling the sausage on his sausage, Allison put the pepperoni back on the store shelf. A loss prevention officer spotted the incident on camera.

Allison has been charged with public lewdness and fourth-degree criminal mischief since Hannaford was unable to sell the pepperoni, WWNYTV reports. He has since been released on a $2,000 bond.

Vulgar acts are nothing new.

Earlier this month, a Florida man was charged with public lewdness after he reportedly pleasured himself while watching Department of Public Works crews hose down a bridge, The Leader Herald reports. With their cellphones, workers videotaped the man masturbating and contacted authorities.
