If you were starving and you HAD to eat one of the choices on the poll, which would it be?

I suppose I would eat viturally anything remotely edible. If it was my children or grandchildren who were starving I would do virtually anything to get them something to eat.

BTW ... I've actually eaten rat meat.

Yes maybe this is a little insensitive when there are people who are starving!

maybe it should be if you had to eat one of those six for some ineffable reason which would it be?

I'd go for cat, as it's the one on the poll that's flesh is least likely to carry some sort of horrible disease.
Having been into China a few times, I probably have already eaten cat already. And dog.
They sell dog meat in the supermarkets in China.

What's wrong with possum? It's a delicacy in Japan.

You really should think of some truly disgusting foods for this poll. May I suggest Huhu grubs, bull's semen, cows intestines, boiled chicken feet or mountain oysters. I've tried all except bull's semen - which I really don't see the point of trying.

I guess I wouldn't starve. I have eight cats. Mmmm. :D

Pickled pigsfeet? Hog jowls? Brain and eggs? ( Some people in the Southern US eat this sort of "delicacy" on a regular basis! ) :eek:

I'd... get a job.

While we're on the subject though, people taste like pork. Trust me.

You guys have got to be kidding me... Most of you would eat a cat??? I've seen what cats eat... Eeeeeewwwww!!

I was talking about this with a doctor friend of mine the other day, and she reliably informed me that meat takes on the flavour of the foods most commonly eaten by the animal. Since pork is very commonly eaten, it might be necessary to eat cannibals who dine exclusively on vegetarians to get the most "Human" tasting meat

Rat, assuming it's of the kind that live in New York who are about the size of labradors.

I wouldn't eat a cat, but I chose bat because they produce guano, about the least repulsive fecal matter I can picture.

Oh, I was expecting the choices to be about ten times worse than that. I'd go for any of those. Well besides the hat, that probably wouldn't be too nutricious.

dude. i would totally eat hat.

and you know people ate cat meat during that big french starvation, so it must not be so bad. but then knowing the french it was probably sitting in a vague pool of yellow sauce.

tasteless ;) joke: why don't cannibals eat clowns?

>because they taste funny!

:p

just take all the choices...put them in a blender...and then use the pureé produced to make a pie. Everyone loves pie.

Bat. You could probably turn that into a 5 star exotic meal.

Meat + pie =/= yum.

Actually, eating house cats that aren't made for meat will make you really sick. There are things that they can handle that live inside them that we can't.

Definitely eat the cats. There easy to catch compared to rats. And.. their bigger and would serve a bigger tastier meal.

I'd eat any of them, but chose the mole rat because it sounds tastiest after the cat, and I don't like killing cats.

I'd actually probably starve to death before I ate one of my cats. Of course, if I had to kill me own food, I'd be a vegetarian. I need a little hypocrasy with my rare steak. :p

whatever has the most meat and will put up the least resistance (because if you're starving, you don't have energy to put up much of a fight) ;)

Cat has the most meat (Unless you live in new york (I'm told) in which case it is rat)
Hat would put up the least resistance, unless it's one of those mexican fighting hats!!!
