No, people taste like pork.  That's a whole other thread.

Soylent Green tastes like pork?

Soylent Green tastes like pork?

True. Apparently cannibals in the Phillipines really liked Spam when it was introduced by sailors, because it tastes most like human flesh.

I don't know if this qualifies, but I ate a chicken-flavored imitation meat patty this afternoon for lunch, and it tasted vaguely like chicken.  The breaded coating had more flavor than the "meat," though.

Hence the slang (does the word "slang" really apply in a scenario like this?) for human flesh, prepared for consumption - long pig. I just report the facts, folks.

Way way back in my online days, I found an interesting textfile that basically detailed the butchery of a human corpse for consumption; like all k-rad anarchy textfiles, it's best to take it with a grain of salt (har har har) but I could see how someone with a sound knowledge of butchery and a copy of Gray's Anatomy could work out the basics without a (how to put this...) test subject.

Let me also take this opportunity to express my undying affection for cargo cults. AIRFIELDS MADE OUT OF BAMBOO

EDIT: what a corker for post 200

I assumed that slang, as it were, was to what wombat was referring...  As for Spam being introduced to cannibals, I have a lot of trouble imagining that particular cultural collision.

Must I do all the Googling around here?

Lovely Spam... Perhaps we can make every thread in this forum eventually work its way around to Spam.

[andalucia]

Ah, excellent.  Leave it to Cecil.

[jough]

I um, LIKE Spam™.

[V-Adore]

I find SPAM* generally inoffensive, too. Even occasionally appetizing, provided I don't eat all that much or that often.

My mom makes a mean SPAMburger.

* The capitalization is to clearly denotate the meat from the bad e-mail. Yes, Hormel has asked people to do this.

I can't stand Spam. It just falls into the category of things that are too preprocessed for me to go near.
Canned things, I tend to like to avoid.

I like to poke fun at fake vegetarians, you know the ones who eat some meats like giraffe, but not other meats.  Their rationale is that each individual has to draw their own line as to what they will or wont eat.  which is perfectly fine with me, but for some reason they feel the need to be considered vegetarian which they clearly are not.  So I would say that I am a vegetarian too because I don't eat people.  You know, we each have to draw our own line.  It's a personal choice.  I'm still a vegetarian.

But now I find out people taste like SPAM.  I may have to reconsider my vegetarian status.
