Actually cannibals in the South Pacific say we taste like pork. Which may be the reason eating pork is forbidden in two of the world's major religions.
"Achmed, are you SURE this is ham? And where the heck is Fasil, anyway? He's gonna miss dinner..."
You humans taste like your own excretions, which your gut is always full of!!
Of course I eat you whole. Maybe I should clean you first, but you're such an insignificant snack, it's hardly worth the effort. (Think of yourselves as space sardines.)
Now, on the other hand, those small gray space fleas with the big eyes, that you make such noise over... they are *delicious*!!. They don't have anything vile in their gut because all they eat is space food sticks. You might think of them as "Space Popcorn".
