I actually would, since there are ways to eat human flesh without killing someone. You could, for one, arrange with someone that their body can be used to take a little bit of flesh and cook it after their death. Another one is using the placenta, which is not needed for regular functions in a person. If it caused no harm to anyone and was one of those two options as well as [I]very[/I] well cooked, it wouldn't be harmful to me either. I would genuinely try it out of curiosity and also because I don't feel like gagging over eating meat is ever a reasonable thing to do. It'd be the same thing as people being disgusted at eating dog or cat meat, really. It's just about the culture you're raised in. As for people claiming you get kuru from eating flesh, that only applies to eating large amounts of human tissue and especially raw tissue. Well cooked and small amounts won't give you jack shit. Although a little bit more sickening of a sidenote, it would be preferable if they really had lived healthily on only organic, non-manipulated foods such as berries and wildlife. That'd make it tastier just like how a badger is super tasty meat because of how it lives on berries and roots. TL;DR yes.
Human flesh is terrible for human consumption because it's full of toxins that will fuck you up. So no.
Yes, if it was well prepared and completely legal, as the OP states. Wouldn't have to be much, just a small bite, but I'm somewhat curious.
Not unless our world had suddenly gone back to a time where we eat our enemy.
I'd probably chew a bit then spit it out, I just want to know what it tastes like.
No, the thought of it being a human would probably destroy my appetite :v:
[QUOTE=Lijitsu;41888363]I honestly can't imagine me getting desperate enough. Even if I was in a survival situation, I wouldn't be able to live with the guilt. Even if I didn't know the person I'd feel horrible about it. I'd rather do myself in and give the other person a shot at rescue or whatever.[/QUOTE] Most cases of people resorting to cannibalism in survival situations happen because parts of your brain shut down when your body is starved of energy. Saying you wouldn't eat someone in a situation like that is like saying you wouldn't do something stupid while incredibly drunk- you can't help it for the most part [editline]19th August 2013[/editline] and iirc cannibalism is legal in those sort of cases
of course id try it you just dont pass up an opportunity like that talk about a life experience wow
[QUOTE=Bat-shit;41891775]There is really no need for cannibalism, especially not today. Not with the way our global food delivery system works.[/QUOTE] Well yeah but we don't need alot of things. Its called enjoying a luxury. Cannibalism is best done with a tophat and monocle.
[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41891137]Human flesh is terrible for human consumption because it's full of toxins that will fuck you up. So no.[/QUOTE] Did you read the post above you? If the person has lived away from urban environments or industrial areas and cooked properly, eating said human's flesh has no negative side effects if consumed in small amounts. The OP asked if you'd try it, not live off of it for prolonged amounts of time. Seriously if well prepared there are no health concerns.
I mean, my brain says "no" because it's fucked up but there's a part of me that would be curious as to what it was like. I dunno, it'd have to be very dire circumstances honestly. That said I can't imagine we'd taste much different than any other meat since it's all basically the same stuff anyway.
Yes.
I'd give it a go.
I wouldn't jump at the opportunity but if I found out I had ate some I wouldn't freak out either. I can't imagine it being that great.
Nope.
Fuck no. That's some seriously messed up stuff. Not even to save my own life, better to go peacefully than live with [I]that[/I] on my conscience.
In absolute dire circumstances meaning life or death from starvation I'm sure anybody would not care. It has protein.
[QUOTE=lolz3;41915552]It has protein.[/QUOTE] yea brah youre rite maybe i should start choppin arms in mah protein shakes, get some manbacon in ther fuark
