Chicken, pork and beef are popular foods all over the world and people eat them with great gusto, but can you imagine that someone can eat human flesh too? Can you tell its taste? Yes, you heard it right. A handful of people have tasted human flesh and are now telling its taste as well. Spain’s 20-year-old Paula Gonu, an influencer, recently admitted that she had eaten a part of her knee. This part was removed after the operation. Another example of cannibalism came to the fore in 2021 when a German man killed and ate a human.
According to the report of Daily Mail, when an attempt was made to know about the taste from these people, then see what the answer was. First in the 1920s, American William Buehler Seabrook met the people of Guero, an African community that ate human flesh. He himself also tasted raw meat with them. He has written about his experience in his book ‘Jungle Ways’. Told, raw human flesh looks like beef, but it has less redness. Light yellowness is seen with fat. After cooking it turned gray and started smelling like beef. It tasted like veal.
Some told like pork and some like tuna fish
A man named Mewes said that human flesh tastes like pork but a little more bitter. However, Japanese cannibal Issey Sagawa described it as ‘tender and soft’ like tuna fish. Sagawa killed a Dutch woman named Renée Harteveldt in 1981 and ate the flesh. In order to stay alive during the 1972 Andes plane crash, many people were forced to eat the flesh of fellow passengers. Most of them said the frozen meat was tasteless. One of these Nando Parado said – When I ate my first piece, it had no taste. I forcefully swallowed it. Last year, Vladimir Nikolayevich Nikolayev of Russia told how he had eaten human flesh for the first time in 1997. He said – If you don’t like raw meat, then boil it.
abundance of myoglobin protein in human meat
According to science, human flesh is rich in myoglobin protein. That’s why it doesn’t turn red like beef. In 2006, researchers at NEC System Technologies and Mie University developed a robot called the Electromechanical Sommelier that could recognize wine by its taste. But when reporters put their hands in his jaw, they told him it tasted like bacon and his feet tasted like pork. When human flesh was examined in the lab, it was found that it contains some fiber like beef. Please tell that there is a complete ban on eating human flesh anywhere in the world, but people are secretly eating it.
