Nutritionally,the next best thing would be bearmeat in supplying the human body's nutritional necessitys in one package of protein.

Told my son years ago, If things ever get real bad you can never starve to death as long as there's still people around....

It sounds like some of the Democrat presidential candidates might be close to adopting this strategy.
Ah, the beauty of it; Democrats eating their own.

She could save a small village during the winter months.

I am all for roasting a bunch of politicians.

That made me laugh Finster, wow!

My mom mentioned to me that human flesh was on the black market in Germany during the Second World War, which is when she was an infant.
I suppose when one is truly starving - especially as a society - that really changes things.
I suppose also that the same held true during the Russian Revolution along with the First World War

Now - just the other night - after midnight - one of those AM radio talkshow hosts - I forget who, I don't think it was John Bachlor... or Jimbo - maybe the guy covering for George Noray ?? Anyhow, he had a caller discuss how human meat would need to be cured in order to be consumed without getting sick, and it was like a real serious conversation then BOOM next thing I know, I am seeing this thread here on T-Man.

One thing ole' Al got right is the human population is really spiraling upwards, and this is - to me anyway - not a good thing, because again personally I feel we are over maxed as it is as far as balance between man and nature goes.

One of my co-workers out of the blue asked me why today there is such a rise in children being born with all kinds of disorders and I told him that this is to be expected with the increase in population, and that this will become even more so as time goes on - which I sincerely feel is horrible for everyone all the way around, the children the parents...
*Just like what happens when the animals get all out of balance between their numbers and being able to properly sustain themselves.

I want to say that during that talk show it was mentioned that in a round about way it is already happening - but on a real small level - maybe bone marrow is being extracted ??
I forget now what he said - my brains are a little scrambled as I'm just coming in after a nice two hour kayaking trip scouting the banks for mink and muskrats and while none were seen, it is finally a nice cool day here in Connecticut - but it was enough to make me get a tighter grip on the steering wheel the rest of they way home.

Two pygmies were eating a missionary they had stewed up. Both were having a ball.

Woof !!

My poor mother never advanced her self out of war torn Germany, even to this day she is unable to have any real fun - she just won't allow herself to do so.
Of interest, I think she turns 77 on the 13th, and I got for her one of the Fur Harvesters Teddy Bears that F&T sells and I did not even think twice about it, because she will cherish it forever.

Whenever my mother hears people here on welfare complaining about nothing, she always says what America needs is five years of hard starvation, that will fix these people who have no idea how good they have it.

And she is right.

Even though I am - only 54 - I truly identify with the older folks, because they get it while the younger folks have no idea what suffering is about.
