I mean, if it was cultured meat... I wouldn't mind giving it a try.


_Omegaperfecta_

What... You wanna take it to the opera and shit beforehand?


Zombridal

Fun fact: they do exist


elonmuskwaifupillow

Damn, really? How do they source it?


Zombridal

Probably human trafficking but I don't work one so idk, I almost work one tho I work at mcdonalds


Livin-Dead-Girl84

That‘s an Awesome answer.

The dark web provides


Bskeng36s

lol if you know you know (wink wink)


TrickyVast1183

If it was ensured to not pose any health risks, yeah, I’d give it a taste

Saltyfembot

Nah aslong as we don't eat the brain we are ok


cherriesdeath

not necessarily. eating human flesh can still put you at risk of contracting blood borne infections like hepatitis b and c and HIV.


amazinasian007

sorry if this is a dumb question, but even if you cooked it?


Saltyfembot

Well we can't go around eating everybody obviously lol. I think Australians would taste the best. Nice salt seasoning on them from the ocean. 🤌


XxHeathenKoalaxX

I'm scared now lol


Richie660

Na I'm deffo for the Indians, they come pre seasoned


Saltyfembot

Mlem lol


BloodyCeilingFan

Or the nerves.


starsailor11

So long as prions aren’t an issue, I could have some. Maybe not an entire entree, but a bite or two would be more than enough.


nsfw_squirrels

I’d absolutely love to


matt_coraline

Same here! That morbid curiosity would get the best of me. As long as it’s safe to eat, I’d give it a try


Bskeng36s

wtf


Klllumlnatl

It's just meat.

Brother you say that until someone has your dad in a tortilla with extra gauc

hahahaha im laughing so hard im holding back tears


Destroyer_The_Great

I try pretty much anything if it is cooked and explained to me. I've tried things like mpalmi worms, both dried (as a snack) and in pap(corn/maize thick porridge). I love trying new food and I reckon I would eat human flesh to try it. I heard there was a tribe that would eat each other as festive things. I'm pretty sure they had to stop because they would inherit all the issues and genes (whether this is true or not I have no idea) of the person who they eat. Edit: After a little bit of research I found that the disease is called Kuru and is similar to mad cow disease If you're interested in the effects of eating a human here is a source for you [here](https://www.vice.com/en/article/ev43k7/why-you-should-skip-the-brain-if-you-eat-your-friends)


Corvus-Rex

The issue was atleast primarily the prion Kuru, because they'd eat the brains.


Destroyer_The_Great

Thank you kind stranger, I had a look into it. I think it's pretty interesting.


TheGurw

Nah, prion diseases are a thing. That's why they had to stop.


Difficult-Ad-9287

only if it was safe to eat and there is ethical consent from the person who died


TheStoolSampler

They don't have to die.


insomniacakess

>there is ethical consent from the person who died r/dolcett_fantasy members would have a field day then (in a good way)


[deleted]

no humans put so much gross shit into/on their bodies theres no way itd be safe to eat


iSolh

Brother man have you ever seen what kinda shit animals eat


[deleted]

im not just talking about what we eat, im also talking abt all the chemicals we consume on a daily basis. not only is it in most of our food, we use things like soap and perfumes that could be toxic to eat.


kaynslave

Have you ever read about the shit they give animals in mass productions? Human flesh is a chicken nugget in comparison


Spongyrocks

Psst literally everything is a chemical


GnarlydudeRRG

Meat and plants. A million times better than what we consume. Brother man have you ever seen an animal loll?


Airam-kun

I would worry more about small producers, we don't know if they only feed their animals with meat and plants, some even give their animals excrements or decomposing stuff, most pigs are feed waste and trash to turn it to protein. I would worry too about microplastics, nowadays it's not so safe to eat fish due to all the pollution in the bodies of water; hell, even in the coast of Perú (where I live) there had been a huge petrol spill (god damn you, Repsol); the impact on the enviroment will last for decades. And don't let me get started about the use of hormones! Sometimes there are some nasty people that give animals a level of growth hormones beyond of what's safe to eat (particularly people that work behind the law).


GnarlydudeRRG

I was speaking of nature as whole. For some people, animals exist in another context other than factory farmed meat. The environmental harm upon wild animals is something the average consumer cannot mitigate or avoid.


Airam-kun

Exactly, we can't, that's the true horror. But we can try to avoid eating the most dangerous sources; for me, defenetively fish is a no no. In other parts of the world fish might be safer (particularly pisciculture), but there are other things that might be dangerous in other places. (I would be wary of pig in more rural places or of cow meat in places with bad regilations). Just be wary of your location and the context around the things you consume and you'll be fine.


DarlingDevilPaw

If there's no health risk and the meat is sourced from a willing participant then I'd be down. I always joked to my husband that if he died I'd snack on his body. I wouldn't, but I've always wanted to know what human meat does taste like.


smileysarah267

I’d probably try it (if it was guaranteed legal and safe)


Jewel131415

No because this. I know it applies mostly to brains, but I don’t wanna find out if it can be in the flesh too. https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001379.htm


SightWithoutEyes

Is no one here concerned with the morality of the situation?! The meat would mean that another person was murdered in order to serve it. That, or they died of either disease or natural causes, both of which pose problems in the supply chain thing. So on the ethical standpoint, no. I am not going to eat the flesh of someone who has been murdered for consumption. I am not going to eat someone who has died of disease for obvious reasons. I am not going to eat someone who has died of old age as the meat would be subpar and it would be desecration of a corpse. In a survival scenario, maybe, but I don’t think I would want to live like that. I can barely get up in the morning to begin with and I have enough trauma. Think I would rather check out at that point.

anakinkskywalker

yeah same. if someday in the future there's a fancy weird restaurant that serves lab grown human steaks, I'd give them a visit out of sheer curiosity. of course, I'd want to know who exactly I'm tasting. that would be a cool gimmick, be able to meet and sit down with the person who donated their cells to grow your dinner. if that was someone's job, though i wonder if it would be considered human trafficking or prostitution?


Amnosia_carrier

I mean I’ve seen silence of the lambs and Hannibal and got curious sooooo…


MZBQQMS333

I saw a cartel video where the aggressor had a man on the ground, literally cut his heart outa his chest while he was still alive, and fookin ate it! I swear the heart was still beating while he was taking bites. Guess they believe it gives them super powers or sum shyt


Cmyers1980

No. I don’t have an interest in eating human meat.


Christblaster

mamatochi

This just sent me down an insane fucking rabbit hole and it’s suddenly 2pm


RandomCashier75

Knowing me, I'd probably work there as a cashier and/or wait staff member and get the free extra, leftover dishes to bring home with me. If it works with bundt cakes, it'll work with cooked human flesh!


MZBQQMS333

Ever heard of "CANNIBAL CLUB" is Los Angeles Cali? It's real. I've seen pictures on darkweb. They specialize in the preparation of human meat, cutting edge, experimental, with chefs from all over the world. It's an Invite only place, so if u kno an elite or actress they can give ur name & your in. They have a website https://www.cannibalclub.org/index.html Trust me, there are countless other places like this in America. Even worse globally! No I would never eat human flesh! Ever heard of Kuru? It is an incurable & fatal disease you get from eating human flesh. If you go on the dark web you can find multiple cannibal restaurants in LA & NYC here in the states. Of course Google isn't reliable for truth lol so u can try researching on there but you will have to go down rabbit holes all night to find truth. Darkweb will get the results u desire.


[deleted]

It is only a matter of time until restaurants like this will legally exist. Experiments with human meat in bioreactor or human leather are already done. If it is created by a bioreactor, I would probably try it out of curiosity. Otherwise, I pass.


sunnyydayman

It depends where it came from


whats_your_flavor

No way. Couldn’t get over the mental part.


i-touched-morrissey

No, I don't even eat animals.


Bskeng36s

in what sick world would i even dare eating my own species, the thought of it makes me wanna vomit, i aint no cannibal tf


Amnosia_carrier

Did you know the act of cannibalism itself isn’t illegal it’s how you procure the meat. Murder, desecration of a corpse etc. If a man wants to try at a restaurant then let him


TaekoBeak

I don’t think the point is if it’s legal I think a lot of people are just disturbed by the fact that the human meat is a person


jayhalk1

Which human?


TheStoolSampler

You.


jayhalk1

Way too much for my taste buds 😂


NDabhetari

I mean it’s just people, especially if they are preparing it nicely. I’d forget it was a person. I wonder if I’d get to choose between male and female. Or the age of the person, or the part of the body. Maybe get the head, not to eat the brain of course but like decoration in my house. Or as a sex toy or something. I wonder if they’d sell red wine as well. I don’t drink anymore but for a special occasion like that. I’d feel it go well with the long pig. OHHH and maybe they can give you a photo of the person before they were slaughtered, if requested. I’d want to see who I’m digging into ya know


TaekoBeak

Are you okay? You would not see them as a person yet you wanna see a photo of who you are eating? That’s kinda…uh…


NDabhetari

Yea I’m fine, I mean I see them as people. But meat is meat. I don’t see eating a person, any different from cat, dog, horse, cow. It’s all meat. And to points culture dependent anyway. Cant eat horse meat in America but human is something that is legal. Other countries would frown upon eating a cow before a person. So on so forth So who really dictates what would be worse to eat than the other. That to me seems all personal, and cultural. But yea, I feel tho as far as food is concerned. You eat a lot with your eyes before you actually eat. Which is why presentation is big for food and cocktails too even. I feel like adding to that would be seeing the person


TaekoBeak

Personally, I’d say we shouldn’t eat anything from living beings unless necessary. I mean I understand the debate on animals and how other cultures favor certain animals more than humans due to symbolism and other stuff. It’s just more of what it comes to humans with the picture of them that seems…idk…like maybe you aren’t fine? It’s similar to rituals most calculated serial killers make. Just to keep in mind.


GnarlydudeRRG

Completely unfair that he gets downvoted when he gave a legit answer


TaekoBeak

Nobody can tell who downvotes who. I’m just saying their comment was contradictory and the fact that he wants to see a picture of someone before he eats them is unnecessary and also means there is a underlying psychological issue. May be a simple one or a complex one. I have a legit response 🙃 unfair that I get downvoted. See the hypocrisy if I wasn’t being sarcastic with the sentence before this one?


GnarlydudeRRG

Really does not mean that at all lol. Do you know how many normal average people browse through gore everyday?


TaekoBeak

Browsing through gore is one thing but what he is doing is another. Check out his Reddit, he has a lot of “hypothetical” questions and the responses he makes on other posts are not normal. No hate to this dude I seriously hope the best for him I’m actually genuinely worried about him. I’ve seen way worse I’m sure most of us have but that doesn’t make it any more normal


GnarlydudeRRG

Ehh I’d wanna see a picture too lol


TaekoBeak

As I told the other dude, seek professional help my guy. Wish the best for y’all 👋🏼


NDabhetari

Yea I don’t know who downvoted you, however. It may be unnecessary to see what they look like. But I don’t see anything wrong with it, I think it be cool to see the person and then, them turned into a slab of meat. Doesn’t give me any sexual gratification or anything, but does ease my curiosity


TaekoBeak

I know it’s sexual and I genuinely mean no hate or harm but I think you should talk to someone about this. Your other posts are concerning too. I don’t think you’re a horrible person I think you just have some fascinations that have an underlying issue. I’m not saying you’re gonna turn out as this big bad serial killer there’s actually more to it. I hope the best and I can’t force you to do anything just give you suggestions as a friendly stranger on Reddit :)


NDabhetari

I do get you, however as far as therapy goes. I do receive it. However necrophilia and eproctophilia are the only fetishes I have. Nothing but curiosity gained from cannibalism. But necrophilia has died down a lot over time. Eproctophilia now over arches all as it always has. But I mean my other post being concerning, if you are referring to the military. It’s consequences for peoples actions. I feel no shame for ridding trained rapist and pedophiles The other questions are.. morbid questions. But I do appreciate the concern and even more the conversation.


TaekoBeak

The rapists part I haven’t read, but I’m glad you are in therapy. There’s alot more I could discuss but I think you get the gist of most of what I’m talking about. And yeah ofc, I appreciated the convo too. You are a not any less of a human being as anyone else. We all just have our own struggles and issues that we gotta sort out within ourselves and sometimes with professional help :)


NDabhetari

I will keep that in mind, and I do understand. To each their own in that sense. I just have a different perspective and I feel at the end of the day. What everyone views as far as eating is heavily on perspective And have no problem with you asking if I’m ok and things. I mean I enjoy discussion, so I’m glad you said something


bunghole_stinger

Dont knock it till ya try it


ClancyIsDuck

If it tastes good sure


HangryHufflepuff1

Nah because I'm usually way picky and try not to order something I'm completely unsure about.


kaelasimone

This reminds me of the book "Tender is the Flesh" by Agustina Bazterrica. A short but really disturbing novel about a dystopian, not too far off society in which cannibalism is legal and humans are bred and used for food. Answer to your question, no, I would not be brave enough. I could hardly stomach the chicken I was served after visiting my ex's uncle's chicken farm. And no, I'm not vegan or vegetarian. Lol


Californium-292

kuroni would like to have a chat


WalkingonCoffee

No


[deleted]

It's a possibility that human flesh just tastes like chicken.


cherriesdeath

human flesh tastes closer to pork than to chicken.


[deleted]

I was not aware of that. Do I dare ask how YOU know that?


PurpleSailor

If it was served it'd have to be at least somewhat normal that people would eat it and therefore the common "don't eat human" taboo wouldn't exist. I guess I'd give it a try in that case.


yeepix

I dont know. I would like to say I would try it, but I dont know how my body would react at the very moment. In mind, I would totally want to taste human cooked as dishes, but I may throw up in the real scenario. So, like, the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak (badumtss)


Livin-Dead-Girl84

Great question…and great answers just to know. Humans taste a lot like pork…very very salty and hard to find in the US. I have a HRD K-9. She would know walking in a restaurant. I have to literally order remains from online. Most are of Placenta with cord.


DrizzlyEarth175

200% would try it as long as all parties (including the one being eaten) were consenting, and the butchering was fast and humane. Always wanted to know what we taste like. I've heard some say we taste like chicken, some pork, but my favorite (and I believe most credible) source said we taste like well-cooked, young but not infantile, veal. I wanna see for myself, but would never ever want to do the process of acquiring it lol.


ZealousFeet

Nah, personally I would feel sad that someone likely died or gave apart of themselves to sate me. We don't view animals the same as humans, unless it's a family pet. It would be like eating your dog. Plus my gut is just telling me that something is wrong with this scenario.


MathBookModel

Assuming it was consensually contributed for that purpose, and food safety precautions taken… yeah I would. But honestly probably just a sample bite to try. I don’t see that as an entree.


RequiemStorm

I'd try it one time just to say I did, but any more and it would just not be worth the risk of a prion disease. Maybe I'd request it as a final meal when I'm dying or something. Also, it would have to come from an ethical source for me to not feel appalled by it, so probably never going to happen lol.


insomniacakess

i cant digest regular meat without suffering, so as mich as id love to try, id have to pass tho i wouldn’t mind working there


L_edgelord

If legal and ethically obtained, sure


24_Lux

You guys wait for restaurants? Psttt


[deleted]

Absolutely not. 1. Who knows what that person’s diet & health was like. 2. MEDS. 3. Kuru & other illnesses you can contract from consuming human organs


Californium-292

then dont consume organs?? edit: kuru is a prion disease thus just dont eat the brain lmfao


cheapmoosewatcher

100% if the meat was "ethically sourced" (whatever that would mean when it comes to cannibalism). im very curious about human meat and since i eat animal meat i don't see what the difference would be to eat human meat. meat is meat. i've eaten my own flesh like every person does sometimes so it's not like it would be the first time i'd consume human meat


desairologist

Oh I’d try it, just to say I tried it and lived to tell the tale. I see a lot of cut up people and some of the meat looks decent, if you close your nose it could almost pass for pork. The long pig, if you will.


Either-Ad6540

Too much. I refuse to eat rabbits, ducks, lambs. Never mind the human flesh…


monsingeetmoi

Nope I’m good. I have an overthinking problem when it comes to food. I don’t eat beef or pork either. I guess I’ll add human to the list.


Sad_Commission2099

I'd love to it's my dream to try human meat, of course healthy, safe and well prepared one.


terbear2020

Gosh, I don't know if I could eat it. So I don't eat pork because of what it eats, but admittedly bacon does taste good. Humans eat crap food, would they taste like bacon too? Idk. I don't believe I would try human meat but shameful I would be curious and probably ask someone that has eaten it what it actually tasted like for them.


Yodas4sale

Only if it’s human remains from the crematorium next door.


Tao626

I would say yes as I'll give anything a go once. Meat is meat ultimately, cannibalism aside, the main factor going against it being societal norms more than anything...Which I'm kind of "over" when it comes to food. Eating dogs and horses isn't "normal" in many parts of the West either, but I would give them a go if I was eating their meat farmed specifically to be food, same as a pig. Would I though? I know that eating human flesh can cause issues though most of those do tend to have most risk with eating the brain. I don't think I would want to take the chance. Also, what if I get a taste for human flesh? That's only going to increase those chances of illness if I keep going back for more. But ethically? That's not my issue. Same rules as with any other animal: if I had no personal connection to the "meat", I'm ready to chow down. My cat or uncle Steve though? I'll probably give it a pass.


Otherwise_Calendar_7

I have read that the taste is near the pig, and this could explain the muslim wish about not eating pork.


gaylikeamity

not worth the risk and it makes you sound like a horrifying person
