Acccording to Moon, "rage and humiliation" goes a long way to explaining pre-colonial Maori cannibalism. But ongoing contact with European colonial influences changed things. According to the article:

With engagement with Anglican and Catholic Churches, Maori were starting to feel shame at cannibalism, alongside a desire to reshape or excuse past behaviour, Moon said.
"They thought, `Well Christianity has the communion which is symbolic cannibalism where the bread and the wine become the flesh and blood of Christ'. You consume it and you consume your god, so really, it's a grafting of Christian ideas on to traditional cannibalism. Therefore, you consume your enemy, you consume their mana."
But it wasn't just Maori engaging in excuse making, some in the academic fraternity, influenced by the idea of the "noble savage" have also been complicit in it, he said.
"Academics wish to sanitise aspects of indigenous culture where everything is kind of pure in the garden of indigenous cultures."

And here I was expecting a story about oral sex. Dammit!

I knew I could count on you, Jomama.

Don't count your eggs until they come home to roost.

Sage advice.
You've earned the thanks of a grateful nation.

Jeffrey Daumer had this to say, "I just like a good piece of ass once in a while".

Add Jeffery Daumer--"I like to keep abreast of my work"

I heard he was fond of head cheese.

I haven't had breakfast yet. Sorry I even clicked this thread.

You should know better by now.

My wife in the 80s worked in a crisis psych unit in Austin TX, and once dealt with a killer/cannibal: He told her that "No we do not taste like chicken"!

"No we do not taste like chicken"!

Actually, more like a delicately done Gourmet Italian Spice and Herb Marinated Chicken, accompanied by a delicate Santa Margherita 2004 Pinot Grigio.
Yummie.

Oh that kinda eating people, I thought this was about cunnilingus and the understated tantalizing taste of redheads and blondes vs. the zesty in your face flavoring of Latinas and blacks.

BTW Asians are so bland to the palate but thankfully they make up for it in other ways.

Ever go into a restaurant and just for fun call yourselves the "Donner Party"? Unless your last name IS Donner, 'natch.

......and did you know that Lorena Bobbit was arrested after cutting off her husband's penis and she was put in a holding cell with Jeffrey Dahmer......

......and Dahmer said to her........

......"...hey....you gonna eat that thing or what ? ".......

**** Why People Eat People *****

.....because they're hungry ?.......

That recipe is about nasty and weird. I don't think it's that hard at all if your knives are sharp and the meat cooled for 24 hours. This firms the flesh and allows much easier cutting and slicing.

Why don't you come on over for dinner and a demo?

"No we do not taste like chicken"!

Of course not.
More like rattlesnake.
Or gator.
Or emu.

People taste more like Bald Eagle with Condor Tongue sauce. White rhino is a very good complementary dish. You will be so full after that you won't want more.

People eat people. You choose a partner and consume them, methaphorically and literally.

Mannibil is the reality.

People...
People who eat people...
are the luckiest People...
in the world...

But don't ask poor Grace.
