Cannibalism

[Chhotu uttam]

what?
i would never eat a human.

Off Topic-what if a vegetarian man sees this topic

 

[CCNaru]

I have nothing against cannibalism but still wouldn't eat it... I'd leave it to others

btw human meat is the tastiest meat.

 

[MFDC12]

I wouldn't myself.

Has anyone seen The Last Horror Movie? Reading this thread makes me think of it

Would you eat a human (maybe just a finger, maybe the nose, maybe the whole leg) if your country legalized that everyone in that country can eat 1 part of a human. The body isn't sick, the human is dead, and his/her last words say: "...and I want my body to be eaten by other humans."
Would you eat it?

No. The Cannibalism isn't a survival option. Why ?? For me, Its unnatural and it's wrong. In general, cannibalism is a bad idea because whatever killed the person you're eating might also kill you. There are a lot of species-specific parasites and germs, so you're more at risk of these from eating a cow than from eating a human. Apes are actually nearly as dangerous, since they're so similar to us, and a lot of diseases that affect them also affect us.

The story you heard is probably about "kuru", the laughing sickness. It's similar to mad cow disease, and probably has a similar cause. Like mad cow, it mostly concentrates in the brain, so you probably won't get it if you avoid the brain and spinal cord. Besides, kuru is rare out side of certain parts of Africa.

The hamstring muscles are large and obvious, but they're also going to be tough, because they receive so much use. It corresponds to the chuck and rump cuts on a cow. Then again, the cuts corresponding to the tender loin muscles are also going to be tough in a human, since they do all the work of keeping us vertical. (Cows don't work those muscles as hard since they go on all fours.)

So you'd want to go with a braise, which is also better for keeping down parasites. That will tend to kill off whatever bugs were affecting your victim.

It's still not a good idea, for legal reasons if nothing else.

Credit goes to askville.

Shinigami don't eat humans. Not even apple-flavored humans. Ugh.

 

[Zorua]

Hell no.
I just can't.
I believe in the supernatural so I'll have dreams of that person's spirit haunting me forever.

Actually, I would never dare to.
It's just kinda weird.
You can't eat someone of your own race.
Have you ever seen a giraffe eat a giraffe or a lion eat a lion?

 

[Bunie]

Who, actually did also vote for "Yes, but only a small part"?

You know, Someday you will find yourself in a situation where you wish to act on this desire.

Your need to know how many people feel the same way as you, shows that you wish to rationalize this thought.

Physically, theres not much wrong with eating a human as we are only mamals as much as anything else,
But im certain we are one of the worst possible meats for your health.

However society frowns upon it and its illegal (everywhere).

My opinion on canabalism is that its fine so long as the person was okay with it. I'm a Vegitarian, So i don't eat any meat for many reasons, and i view eating meat as just that, no different between eating a cow, or eating grandma.

However, if canabalism was a "normal" part of life and was widely accepted, the curiosity your feeling wouldnt exist.

How do you know? Or were you being x rated?

 

[Uncle FEFL]

There's cannibalism in the wild, but it's a rare occurrence. Man is not meant to eat man.

Wow, um... That is one of the most inane assumptions I've ever heard about the debate. It's true meat is meat, but there is a lot of difference from one to another. I frankly think it childish to say that "eating meat is just that", just because you never eat it.

 

[MelodieOctavia]

In the event that a freak accident took a meal sized chunk out of my body, I would freeze it, claim to the paramedics that I have no clue where it is.

Go to the hospital, get stitched up, and then come back home and cook that sucker. and eat it.

Would I eat another human's flesh? Most likely not unless I was in a situation where that would be the only way I survived. (have any of you ever heard of prions?)

 

[Foxi4]

I wouldn't eat a human not only because it's moraly wrong, but also because it poses various health risks.

Think of the malicious proteins (for example mutated prion proteins which cause Kuru and Creutzfeldt–Jakob's disease, among others), dormant viruses (HPV, HSV, HIV), muscle tissue parasites like tapeworm cysts, plus the general similar DNA composition.

Too many variables. Too many risks.


Unless I was stranded in a wasteland with no other option, that idea wouldn't cross my mind. On the other hand, I do wonder what the flavour is like. Probably like pork. People can be real swines sometimes afterall, lol.

Have you ever seen a giraffe eat a giraffe or a lion eat a lion?

It's rather rare, but felines in general may resort to cannibalism once all other food sources are depleded. Instances of such behaviour were observed within the Fukushima Lockdown Area after people were evacuated, leaving their cats and dogs behind. Dogs were starving and looking through trashcans, cats were attacking and eating eachother.

sharks eat sharks

 

[shamiko_]

I would eat a human if i would die from starvation if i didn't.

i'd rather drink liquid than eat dead bodies

 

[Foxi4]

Prisons?

Prions.

 

[Waflix]

Are we expected to eat it raw or cooked?

That's your choice, what do you like best?

 

[BasedKiliK]

Even if I was starving, I wouldn't. Eating it might actually kill me further. The human body is full of all kinds of diseases and crap that we put into it.

Hey Waflix, seeing as you seem pretty keen on eating someone how would you go about cooking them, do you have any recipes in mind?

Personally I think it would have to be long slow cooking, casserole or some sort of curry maybe........

 

[ProtoKun7]

Never.

When I finally have 300 posts, I will become "GBAtemp's Cannibal"!

How do you plan on displaying that until you reach 500?
