Law-type persons, can you confirm for me that cannibalim--specifically the act of one human ingesting the flesh of another--is illegal in the United States? KTHNXBYE.


(I'm talking only about the eating. Not about the killing to get the body or trafficking in body parts. Those, I'm comfortably sure are illegal).

Goodness. Do I want to know why you want to know this?

Purely informational. I read an article about a man confessing to the murder of his girlfriend but not to eating her body (he claimed to be chopping up and cooking the body to better feed it to dogs). This was in Mexico, however. I was asking about the US for my own edification, since rarely do you hear about cannibalism divorced from other crimes.

Oh, so this isn't for Halloween. I guess you'll have to settle for a box full of macaroni labeled
"Frankenstein's Brains" on the side.
