We ’re just going to come out and assume that you ’ve in all probability ( hopefully ! ) never stopped , put down your cheeseburger , and marvel what it might taste like if it was made with human form – lease aloneyour ownhuman pulp . But if the interrogation whets your pathologic curiosity , a British TV presenter has go ahead and essay to find out what it taste like – by remove a bit of his own goddamn pegleg and cooking it .
As encounter in thesomewhat graphicvideo ( above ) , BBC science reporter Greg Foot voluntarily had a small piece of his thigh muscle removed , which he after convey to a laboratory to be cooked and analyzed . Because exhaust human flesh – even your own – is illegal , Foot was unable to actually eat his own meat , so he stop a few steps short of Hannibal Lecter’ing himself and experienced what it smell like when cooked alternatively . That ’s right : hedoes noteat his own flesh . Thankfully .
As for what it smells like , Foot was pleasantly surprised , saying , " That in reality smells quite nice . Really meaty though . Like a lot rich than pork barrel or crybaby . " The lab ’s perfume analysis found similarities to ruby-red centre ; specifically , pork barrel and lamb . Seeing as smell makes up a vast part of what we taste , this is probably the close we ’ll get to envision out what human meat tastes like , shortsighted of villainous means .
patently , going and literally exhaust yourself or other human frame is not advocate and will probably get you in trouble with the police . We hope this goes without saying , but do n’t attempt this at home , folks .
