    Humans eating human flesh turns the body into a literal crazy zombie. Eating human flesh changes the body and how it operates it literally destroys and changes everything including how the brain functions because humans are not supposed to eat other humans it's in our dna to not eat each other. The more human flesh you eat the less human you become.

    I actually searched for this because there seems to be so much fake,weird foods and so called diseases popping up all over the place. Thought maybe do some" research "

    Not a fair comparison. There are tons of diseases "farm animals" carry if they are not given the corresponding anti-biotics and if their meat is not treated properly after slaughter. If you treat your human meat properly there is not that big of a risk as well.

    Your thigh is around 10,000 calories, and your whole body is around 80k, if half of that is fat then you have around 40k calories you can eat, you also have two thighs, which means you actuslly have 20k calories on both of your thighs, a quarter of all your calories and half of the edible ones
    So, just saying, if you are desperate enough for cannibalism, idk, just saying, best bet in on your legs

    It's sad people don't realize what's truly inside fake meat. Why do you think so many people vanish without a trace? Watch soylent green to see what's really happening.

    TW: HIGHLY DISGUSTING AND DISTURBING
    STOP EATING NOW

    I like to drink my own blood and others blood as well. I'll pick at my own and others scabs, eat them, and drink the blood. I also consume my period blood.

    Is this a red flag
    I think it is

    How can people not believe in God? He covered ALL bases! Made it to where it’s pretty much impossible to survive as a species if we eat ourselves 👀

    Well if i had no food but human flesh, I'd rather die
    Cause people eat to survive and I don't want to survive if I have eaten human flesh, knowing I probably got kuru
