So as not to offend the real cannibals?

I understand that "real" cannibals get 30 points towards their admission at the U. of Michigan, 'cause, um, their diversity is palate pleasing.

And they make a great three co-ed salad.

I wonder what PETA has to say about all this.

A good question. In the English-speaking world, humans eating human flesh traditionally qualify.
