WTF.

I was hoping to at least kill my own food.

Ok Harb. Its been a week and the first dude is all ate up. Theres you and 2 others. "Steve" is getting annoying.

Strangle him, or club him? And what to do about "Dan"? Tell "Dan" that "Steve" is really pissing you off, and you always wondered what a Puerto Rican tastes like?

Yep Pork at least thats what cooking human flesh smells like!!!!! The Maoris here had a list of what we all tasted like, English where slaty, Spanish spicey etc etc etc,

If people taste like bacon, we've been missing out.

I would do it without all those dire circustances... How's Friday?

A year or so ago I read the book Alive: The Story of the Andes Survivors. If you're not familiar it's about a rugby team who's plane crashed high in the Andes Mountains. They were lost and without provisions. Long story short they resorted to eating the dead.

There were some who had major problems doing it. Others had less of a hard time knowing they would stay alive. HOWEVER.....they all had numerous conversations about the moral implications of it. We know that cannibalism is not a normal practice and even faced with life or death situations it was a MAJOR hurdle for them to overcome.

ALL of them had issues re-adjusting after the experience was over. They had a rough go of it.

So while I'd say I'd do it.....I do that with some weight and hesitation.

That is an excellent book. I hear the movie is coming out early next year.

A movie about circumstantial cannibalism? Awesome. Now silence of the lambs doesn't have a monopoly on the cannibalism movies market!
