    When overpopulation on planet Earth gets really bad, and food gets really short, will we start routinely eating the dead?

    Sort of like extreme recycling.

    Who'd be up for it? Would anyone refuse on principle?

    It'd depend on how long they'd been dead, whether the reason food was short was due to some kind of zombie-related apocalypse and whether their diet had revolved around foods I hate (that'd make them taste minging) :D

    If it does come to that, there would have to be some sort of quality control, Im not about to eat any old waster.

    I'd definitely check it was free range aswell, I dont like cruelty.

    Why not? Humans have a much more extensive history of cannibalism then previously thought.


    Tastes like chicken. ;)



    Oh, and according to some of the oldsters stationed in the Philippines, if you smoke a lot the cannibals won't eat you because you taste like cigs. Sooooo, light up! :p

    Really? I heard that people taste like pork. We had better clear this up before anyone makes a final decision on which wine to serve.

    I think we can avoid the whole problem and just serve with beer. :D

    Beer would work if said human were prepared slow cooked BBQ style (probably a lager or pilsner). But for over roasting? I'm not as sure about that one.

    And if you stuck only with beer, there would be a whole world of culinary possibilities that you would be missing. I think someone needs to do some research before anyone commits a kitchen faux pas. Could you imagine the embarrassment of your guests if you were to serve a Frenchman with a Riesling.

    Having just had a quick chew of my fingertip, I can confirm that it does, in fact, taste like chicken. Having eaten chilli today, I imagine that larger bites would taste like spicy chicken
    So, yeah, serve with beer. Mexican, preferably :D

    Roual Eternally curious...

    you're all avoiding a very important question... what do you serve human with? Is there a side dish (assuming some are still left), or just a little tomato or bbq sauce?

    You're all avoiding an even more important question:

    Should the body be labelled as 'fit only for animal consumption' if it was a marmite eater?
