Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Would you eat another person?

All the posts lately about healthcare, end of the world, Soylent Green etc. got me thinking....

If the end comes, the available game will be shot out in short order. Food will be in short supply. How will you survive?

The one thing that's pretty easy to kill that won't be in short supply is people.

I believe I will shoot and eat people if things get bad. They are much easier to hunt and there are plenty of them around.

What about ya'll?

JM.

I'll have to get back to you on that. I have thought about it.

Only young females and the choice cuts. LOL

like 378 says, would I?

i already have, at least the soup part


i think most folks if they were really hungry would eat a lot more diverse food than they currently do. most of us are very rarely very hungry.

if folks get hungry all bets are off

I have bought boxes of Lea & Perrin and Tony's just in case..

You already ate your neighbors kid, so we know your answer.

I try to eat one at least once a week.

If it's Cheryl Burke, I'll start right now..

Hey, I figure you Wisconsin fellers for beer brats on the hoof.

DID any of you see the horrible movie MOTEL HELL?. It starred Rory Calhoun and he made jerky outta folks.

Been trying to contact him for the recipe.

saw it loved it


takes all kinds of critters to make Farmer Vincent's fritters

Couldn't say. Never been really, truly hungry in my life. It would be disgusting to think about due to many years of socialization against it, but realistically it's just protein.

As far as taste or presentation it couldn't be worse than a lot of Scottish food.

Just re-read "Lucifer's Hammer" about a comet striking earth and causing TEOTWAWKI. Good book, btw.

Group of soldiers on maneuvers when the comet hits become cannibals. One of the subplots of the book revolves around how they force captives to eat people to become one of the group. Their cannibalism is a big part of their psychological warfare against those they come up against.

were the situation dire enough for it to come up, yeah.......but it would be the last option.....at that point meat is meat.....

my wife however would have starved to death a few months back while my brother and i were discussing what tastes better, rabbit innards or rocky mountain oysters .....i love her to death but damn does she have a weak stomach.....

love that book

Not to change the subject, but have been on an end of the world reading kick in the last few months. In addition to "Lucifer's Hammer" I re-read "Alas Babylon" and read "Earth Abides" for the first time. Both of those are now over 50 years old.

Still great books. "Alas Babylon" makes me want to hoard salt and coffee.

Do you think I should add some fava beans and a nice chianti to my stores?

When his draft board asked the late Oscar Levant � concert pianist and noted curmudgeon � whether he could kill humans, he's said to have answered "Friends and relatives, yes."

W C Fields answered with just one word when he was asked how he liked children � "parboiled."

It maybe called eating, but it's really more along the lines of licking and sucking.

Well, conservatives are off the lists and liberals would be one tough cut of meat, it would need some serious tenderizing.

Seriously, I'm an old man with not much time left. I would gladly sacrifice myself for the kids I know for them to have a chance. There's a lot of me that ought to feed a few kids.

Will someone please put this [TEOTWAWKI]in English so I can understand what the he11 that means.
