If I was really desperate, I'd eat someone's liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti... <makes sucking noise>

Hell yeah. I'd prefer the person be someone I didn't personally know, and that they were already dead, but if my live depended on it...

How weird would that look to see two starving guys in a slow-motion fight to kill and eat each other? I imagine it would be alot like two zombies fighting :?

No, I really don't think I would.

It has nothing to do with morals.

If I don't eat something, period, it is because I cannot eat it. I can't make myself do it.
I don't eat human. The closest I come is chewing on/biting my own arm/hand, or occasionally biting my dad's hand or whatever. But actually eating, no.

I would not eat a human were I starving to death. I wouldn't eat a hamburger, even. I'd probably die before actually starving anyhow. Being hypoglycemic, I'd probably end up freaking out and doing something... stupid.

No! I have trouble eating meat. In the mmorpg istaria, dragon players will occasionally refer to us bipeds with the derogatory title of food, and I always think thats nasty and morbid, even if we're Roleplaying. Taking a fantasy that far even if its a game and not really you is kind of morbid.

I totally would :p

I'm a vegetarian but if my life was at stake I wouldn't hesitate one second. I wouldn't kill for it though.

I haven't even read the OP but it doesn't have to mean one has to kill. Just a leg, arm or breast will do. Hop.... throw it on a barbecue, some nice sauces and wine with it and let the party begin.

8O

:D

(sorry)

To save my life?? I'd try it just for the hell of it!! I have no moral objections to eating human flesh. Meat is just meat after all. Too much of it would be unhealthy for you, though, as it is to biologically similar to your own biology.

Killing or intentionally maiming people is morally objectionable, though. So the said human flesh would have had to have died/been dislocated some other way, I suppose.

Realistically, almost anyone would, if on the brink of starvation. That's historical experience in times of famine.
