Long pork - it's what's for dinner! Have you seen the Monty Python cannibalism sketch? It's pretty much like those Andes guys - they're all pretty generous and good natured.

I think I could eat a human if it was decently prepared (and of course, necessary for my survival, and already dead [if freshly]). But then again I've eaten squirrel and rattlesnake and wild boar. Meat's meat, right?

I found this piece especially uplifting and amusing, I guess because I'm in a dark period too (no surprise). I think this is a way to match and burn off the cultural devil who is currently ascendant. Fire meets fire.

Oh that's so great, I hadn't seen that bit. So you better eat me. Eww with a gammy leg?! Weirdest thing I've done is just the snails and frogs of France, and I'll always regret I didn't sample from the buffet of bugs at the booth in Thailand. But now I'm just a pescatarian so I guess I wouldn't even eat myself if needed.

I'm glad the darker I go, the more it might strangely have the opposite effect. I like that idea and how beautifully you phrase that with the fire meets fire of matching/burning this cultural devil. Let's burn!
