If you died of natural causes and your friends needed to eat you to survive, would you be cool with it?

Of course. The notion of it has actually never bothered me or really phased me.

Of course! Besides, I’m a vegetarian so it’s not like I could eat any of them.

Absolutely! And I hope they serve me up with fava beans and a nice Chianti.

Hell yes! I am a registered organ donor in the event that I die in a traffic accident, but it would be even cooler if my corpse was cannibalized.

Yep. Most of my meat is in my thighs anyway.

Yup. I just think it might be a little weird being one of the friends. . . Then again when starving I might not think it to be so weird.

Sure. I hope they savor my subtle chocolate overtones.

Uh, yah…if I’m already dead, what’s it matter? No point in them dying too :P

If we were stuck in the Andes, I would assume that I was cool before they started eating.

To save literally family or friends, sure.

Once I’m dead, I won’t need my body anymore, so, good eating.

With all the chemo and meds they’ve pumped in me? I’m not sure I would advocate anyone dining on me; however, I’m gone – why not?

“Hey, cak tastes like a Twinkie!”

If you die of natural causes,you probably wouldn’t make a very appetizing corpse. Natural causes implies you wear out and die from old age. Have you ever looked at those 100 yos that Willard Scott shows-all skin and bones and hardly worth the effort to butcher.

as long as they don’t eat my junk. that should go to a museum, or science or something.

@Harp
I thought cak tasted like chicken…

I probably wouldn’t even notice much.

Question extender what do you ihink you taste like. I’m deep fried dill pickle

@Harp…LURVE to you, my friend! That’s hysterical. My husband is still laughing.

i taste like beefcake.

I’m mostly peanut butter, spagetti, and chocolate. I’m not sure how delicious I would be. I should probably start eating foods that went together better in consideration of those who one day might have to eat me.

Yeah, I’d be okay with it. I’d taste like honey. Maybe. Maybe not, but I’d like to taste like honey.

@DrBill – twinkie…I’m going with twinkie.

I’d probably taste like garlic. They might consider making lasagna.

Would I be cool with it? Of course not. I’d be dead so I wouldn’t give a shit.

Chow away, friends. I just ask that you say a few words in my memory before you begin.

I would have it coming. I’ve been telling folks to “eat me” for a long time.

I’d taste like burning.

It would be a pity if they didn’t. They’d be missing out on a week’s worth of steak dinners just from my biceps. Kidding. Probably only six days.

Jayne, any man who would wear a hat like that isn’t afraid of anything. Aren’t you the Hero of Canton? (insert more Firefly references that don’t have anything to do with the question here) “I’ll be in my bunk”. Ok, I’m done now.

Shouldn’t we mention Vera, Jayne’s favorite gun?

I hope they do me justice.

Although, there’s not much to eat. I’m 6’2” and only 130lbs. Not too meaty.

I’d haunt everyone who ate me and their families for several generations.

No, I would be dead. I probably wouldn’t know and therefore wouldn’t care.

Yes, yes you should. Otherwise she and her little pal boo might come visit you in the night. Anyways, if you need any heroing, mrswho knows where I’ll be.

I do have “Vegetarians taste better” on the back of my car…........

Sure, why not? À votre santé! I bet I’d taste like bacon.

You all know there’s a Python sketch about this very scenario called Lifeboat? It’s sick, funny, wrong – and vaguely homoerotic.

@aprilsimnel “How long is it?” “None of your business!”

“How long is it?” “That’s rather a personal question!” “You stupid git! I meant ‘how long have we been in the lifeboat’!”

@aprilsimnel i was just happy i remembered a skit i last heard 15 years ago. ohwell

Oh, gosh, I just wanted an excuse to say “You stupid git!” I can’t use it otherwise without sounding pretentious!

@aprilsimnel i prefer “you watery tart!”, but only when at bars.

@delirium Isn’t there an ethical conundrum in a vegetarian encouraging cannibalism?

Absolutely! I think I’d taste like Peeps.

@galileogirl…lurve for conundrum. It’s such a…bouncy sounding word to to me.

Sure. I’m dead, I don’t care.

If they absolutely had to do it to survive, that would be fine. Obviously, I would take my revenge in the form of kuru.

The only real reason I would object to begin with would be the chance of kuru.

They’d get high off of me, but if they’re down I’m down.

They’d better take a pepcid first because I’d probably “repeat” on them, ha ha!

I’d be fine with it… But my friends might be a little skeptical eating me (hopefully) but then again, they’re starving… I taste salty.
