In Roman times, pork was a popular meat, but wasn’t always affordable. When the Games were running, disreputable wholesalers (whatever they were called then) would render human flesh to vendors who would then sell it as pork. The flavor is indistinguishable.

I guess now no one wants to come to my cookout...

"The flavor is indistinguishable."

Didn't some cannibals in New Guinea call human flesh "long pig?"
