Contingency Cannibalism--

Therefore I would wait until a young vegetarian girl died. Might as well get the good stuff.

Ok... now that i know to stay AWAY from you on a deserted island!!!!!


I could eat a person i guess, but i would rahter not!!!!!!! If the person was allready dead, i would eat it... only if i was about to die! Really i have enough fat on my body that as long as i had water i could survive for quite a long time. But i could never kill a person to eat it, what makes my life more important than theirs, the same thign that makes my life more important than a cows, nothing....

So, when you say you want to have me for dinner sometime.....

Oh, Fencergrl says that to me all the time. She's had quite a few relatives of mine for dinner. I hear she's quite the hostess.

But seriously, I'd do it. Meat is meat. As soon as a person dies they are no longer a person, they are a slab of meat that is going to rot, stink and become a health hazard unless something is done with it.

Something is done, perhaps, like a nice wine reduction with some fresh thyme? Or a gorgonzola cream sauce?

Actually the first thing that came to mind when I seriously thought about eating a person was "people marsala", but both of your ideas sound good too. The wine reduction would add an element of chemical tenderizing to ensure a nice, consistently tender meat and the cream sauce would make a heavier dish that would no doubt be very satisfying considering the whole starving to death issue. Mmm, pragmatism can blend well with good taste.... heh.

If cattle become beef, pigs become pork, sheep become mutton, etc., what would you call human meat?

Most people will marinade themselves with wine! Makes them easier to snare that way too...

The meat of carnivores and omnivores with a high meat intake is generally pretty nasty. Being old and, as Peter pointed out, being male tends to have a negative effect on the taste of meat. Therefore I would wait until a young vegetarian girl died. Might as well get the good stuff.

That is so true! The best bear meat is a little berry eating bear, the salmon eating or dump/garbage bears are really nasty! Deer that eat alot of trees have a gamier taste than the grain eating ones... adrenaline is another factor, which is one of the reasons you don't chase your game, as it ruins the meat. So I suspect you are correct in your assumptions.

My fencing coach likes to point out that the best meats are those from entirely milk-fed young animals. He likes to point this out while he is feeding his newborn baby with a bottle of milk!

I've actually always found milk-fed veal and milk-fed babies to be overrated meals. Two year old, corn-fed beef is a better option in my opinion.

Did you know that the largest consumer of pepto-bismol in the US is actually cattle? Eating corn is really painful for them even as it makes them grow faster. As a vegetarian I find this whole thing rather sickening, I have to admit. But then I find the idea of eating another animal categorically unappealing.
