Would you eat a plant-based human meat?

[Marumorose]

A Swedish company made a vegan burger that they say tastes like human flesh - and the burger recently received an award. The plant-based company named Oumph! developed the 'human meat plant-based burger' for people who want to taste fake human flesh during Halloween last year.

How do you feel about that?

I wonder where they did the taste tests.

How do they know what human flesh taste like????? Did someone at some point practice cannibalism?
No I wouldn't eat it - and it's something wrong when people want the taste of human flesh.

guess my question is .... how do they know it tastes like "human meat" ????

 

[DragonFox91]

Yeah, I would if it's not real meat, it's not real meat.

can anyone prove it tastes like that? they're just being risque. Though the idea of it kind would make me nauseous - and I'd be concerned if that flavor would get dropped into other burgers by mistake.

Me too,. How does anyone know what a human taste like?

 

[David's Harp]

Yeah, it comes across as dramatic, but it was more of a gimmick to promote their plant-based burgers for Halloween. Like a step up from candy eyeballs and brain cakes.

Freudian slip? Lol

I must admit, I love threads like these - a seriously WEIRD product that invariably sends us down the rabbit hole of wonderment.

I mean, just how on EARTH would one conceive such an idea? I'm flabbergasted. If not a little curious.

I'm sure it tastes as much like "human meat" as their plant-based beef burgers taste like "cow meat". That is to say, they don't. Never had a plant-based meat that truly tastes like the real thing.

 

[David's Harp]

Never had a plant-based meat that truly tastes like the real thing.

And how many humans have you tried?

 

[Ignatius the Kiwi]

Why do they have be disgusting? I already thought the fake meat thing was pretty disgusting but this is a whole new level.

 

[grasping the after wind]

No, I don't wish to eat any soy that has been disguised as meat. When I eat soy I want it to taste like soy not fake meat.

I heard somewhere that in some language human flesh is known as ‘long pig’ because apparently it tastes a bit like pig. It’s pretty surprising just how widespread cannibalism used to be actually, all across the world.

Admittedly, I once had some chicken dippers which came shockingly close. Birdseye "Green Cuisine" or whatever name it was.

It tastes like pork according to Idi Amin and other cannibals. I believe Idi Amin actually nick named human corpses hanging up as "long pig".

 

[lismore]

Someone voted 'yes' they would eat this!

 

[The Liturgist]

I wonder where they did the taste tests.

Assuming such taste tests occurred, I would say probably in New Guinea or in some parts of Melanesia and Polynesia, where cannibalism is common and human meat is euphemistically referred to as “Long Pig.” I wish I were making this up, but I am not. Indeed there was a scion of the Rockefeller family who was an anthropologist, studying the tribes of New Guinea in the late 1950s, when he disappeared, and his remains have never been found. It is widely believed he was the victim of cannibalism.

Indeed, remind me to politely decline any invitations to dinner from them. I don’t want to find myself on the menu.

The Long Pig euphemism is correct, although I am pretty sure it originated in Austronesia and not with the former Ugandan dictator.
