Cannibalism

[Booshie]

Gotta do whatever it takes to survive I guess..

What are your thoughts?

Don't eat the brains. Never eat the brains! Seriously, do not ever eat human brains.

In our 3 day ship to shelf society in a major SHTF humans wil be the largest source of protein available. I am more worried about being eaten than I am about having to eat my neighbors.

I heard it tastes like chicken. Now before we eat anyone, did only the men look for food or can this also be verified by a woman? No offense but men miss stuff sometimes. I'm not eating anyone else if there are other choices.

Perhaps if someone else did the cleaning & cooking of the person. But to just rip off an arm & eat it is way to barbaric for me.

Actually, the word is that humans taste more like pork than any other thing.
My father was in the USAF in Japan when a plane when down with sensitive cargo (and people's) They formed a perimeter around that plane and he had to smell that burning flesh. Said he couldn't eat meat (especially pork) for a long time ... said it smelled like a pig roast.

Do you think the older ones would be gamey?

Well done.

I prefer a warm, pink center... more toward rare.

I'd be eatin' folks about 2 hours after I ran out of other food.

Heck, I see some people and just can't help but imagine that they would probably be delicious.

 

[theweakerbrother]

I'm always being told I'm delicious when I'm out and about.

Wait.

What?

I don't think I could do it. I pray it never happens to any of us. I do not think I could exist in such hopelessness.

 

[printcraft]

If I die you guys can eat me.

 

[theweakerbrother]

Legally bound! I'm getting this notarized tomorrow. I changed my mind! HAHAHAH!

I don't think this could be answered honestly until the time arrived, eat or die most will eat.

Ok, after watching movies like "The Road", "Book of Eli", etc.....I've come to wonder just how many people would resort to cannibalism when left with absolutely no other choice.

The situation: The world has gone to s***, there is no animals, insects,foliage, or pretty much life of any sort. You are starving, and aren't going to make it another few days. You catch a person trying to steal items of yours, and kill him. What do you do?
(I realize this is extremely hypothetical and stupid, but I'm just curious )

I honestly think there is no way I could do it. Even starving to death. I wouldn't be able to stomach it and probably just end up throwing up trying.

What are your thoughts? If you had to put in a percentage how many people you think would turn cannibal, what would you say?
5%? 25%? 75%?

Well...I seriously doubt that if the animal kingdom went down, we would still be around. I feel as though they would find a way to survive, especially the small ones, before we would. IF some of us were still around and I was one of them, after a week or two of no food, I could probably resort to cooking up someones leg or arm, but would have a harder time with lets say...a rib.

3 things I need for survival:
1) Knife
2) Fire making skills
3) Fat friend

Can't understand why people won't go camping with me!!

Huh... so we are supposed to wait to start eating people... dang, am I embarrassed.

You're a little too excited there. He said you could eat him. NOT run your tongue over his body. Geez.

Wife: Oh my gawd! You found bacon!!
Me: Umm.......
Wife: Get out of my way!
Me: Uhh....honey?
Wife: Less talk, more bacon!
Me: Whatever you say babe...

 

[JohnP82]

I would have a hard time doing it, but if there were no other option I would have to try.

This is the exact reason why I keep my wife a little on the plump side. Unless Vivica A. Fox shows up she is first on the menu. The way I see it if I can eat her cooking I can eat anything.

Just don't eat clowns....



They taste funny

Well done.

Do you mean they only taste funny when well done? I prefer my clown done medium/medium-well.
