Liver and onions anyone? ;-)
 
This could go down in history as the world's best straight line:

1972 Cannibal Plane Crash Survivors to Lead Organ Donation Campaign
Thursday, August 20, 2009

The survivors of a 1972 airplane crash in a remote area of the Andes who turned to cannibalism to stay alive are helping to raise awareness on the importance of organ donation, Agence France-Presse reports.

The 16 crash survivors, who spent 72 days on a remote mountain before they were rescued, are leading a government-run organ donor awarenss campaign in Uruguay, crash survivor Jose Luis "Coche" Inciarte told AFP.

The survivors plan to ask donors to make "a pact with life," similar to the one the plane crash survivors made 37 years ago that called for anyone who died in the mountains to allow themselves to be eaten so that the others could stay alive, Inciarte said.

The goal of the new campaign is to double the number of registered organ donors in Uruguay by late 2010.

Where are they wanting the organs donated, the local steak house?

What does human meat taste like? Just wondering. Thought someone here might know . . .

Well then, if the next bow hunting trip doesn't produce any pigs, there are always hikers.

Nah. If it tasted like pork, cannibalism would be a MUCH bigger problem. Mmmmm... Chops, ribs....bacon!

Whenever I get on a plane, I always look around to see who might be tasty in the event of an isolated crash. I would think the fatties would taste best, no?

On a side note, did anyone see the episode of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" where Danny DeVito told the couple who stole food from his freezer that it was "human meat"? OMFG...you have to see that one when it re-runs.

Dunno about peoples but in cows, the fatter and less active the more tender the meat.
The muscles that get the least exercise are the best cuts, the muscles that do the most work have the most connective tissue and are the toughest.
So to answer your question: the fattest and laziest person on the plane would probably be the one to keep an eye on ;)

Probably depends on your intended cooking method.

For Mr. Fatty in 15D (and spilling over to part of 15E too), he'd be good for grilling. All that fat rendering on to the burners or coals, nice tasty smoke, yummy. And bacon of course.

For Mr. Muscly in 22C, he might be better for a braise, or a stew.

Now, I'm not sure who would yield the equivalent of tenderloin. He'd be the guy I'd call dibs on. And then there's the specialty meats, like the equivalent of veal.

I think we need to consult an expert.

Yumm... :p

On the other hand....what happens when boarding a plane and discover you are the fattest/laziest?!? :eek: Change flights?

Not sure I could eat a male. All that hair, cheap cologne, five o'clock shadow, etc. would ruin my appetite. Would have to be a woman...

Whomever was the beyotch that kicked my seat for the whole flight or yapped constantly, or treated the flight attendants rudely would be the one I'd smoke first. Gender would have nothing to do with it.

Eat the rude. Natural selection at it's finest.

That's my new bumper sticker. Thanks.

There is a saying in the sport of Rugby that says that the players are so tough they eat their dead. This saying comes from this plane crash because people on the plane were members of a local rugby team in route to a tournament at the time of the crash.

I read the book several years ago about the whole ordeal. IIRC the survivors were rescued and it wasn't until sometime later that it was revealed how they were able to survive. The doctors were somewhat surprised to see them in the condition they were in at the time of the rescue. The doctors figured out that they must have been munching on the dead and confronted the survivors who finally admitted it.
