I couldn't bring myself to try guinea pig. The only "funny" animal I tried over there was alpaca (a sort of llama type animal), but that's nothing like trying an animal normally considered a pet in your own country.

Still, as others have probably said (I haven't read the rest of the thread yet), it's a cultural thing.

I very stupidly just put "Cannibalism" into wiki and got

Quote:

Cannibalism by performance artist

In 1988 performance artist Rick Gibson became the first person in British history to legally perform an act of cannibalism by eating a canapé of donated human tonsils in Walthamstow High Street, London, England.[20][21] A year later he publicly ate a slice of legally purchased human testicle in Lewisham High Street, London, England.[22][23] When he tried to eat another slice of human testicle in Vancouver, Canada in 1989, he was stopped by the police.[24][25] However, the charge was dropped and he finally ate a testicle hors d'œuvre in Vancouver in 1989

Talking about tasting like pork if you read the wiki apparently it tastes like veal..

Going back though to the original topic you have to remember that we are omnivores and quite capable of eating anything on the planet that would give us sustenance, Whether that be vegetable or animal. A dog is simply something that we as Britons have decided to remove from our diet where as some cultures never got to that step.

I'd try it even if it wasn't life or death.

Meat is meat.

I'm not exactly going to go killing people to try it, but if there was a way of legally obtaining human meat I'd give it a go.

there is of course Placentophagy. I know the placenta is naturally expelled from the body but it is still human and this has been consumed by some for a long time

Problem with cannibalism is the problems it can cause after.Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease or CJD was found to be passed amongst cannibal tribes through eating human brains
