Would you ever retort to cannibalism if it were your last food source?

Say your plane crashed in the middle of the Himalayas like in this movie and you decided to live off of the bodies of your fellow dead passengers. Would you do such a thing? For me, Unless I knew there was some means of eventually getting rescued, I wouldnt even bother trying to eat. Why prolong the suffering if i'm just going to freeze to death sooner or later since im limited on food and ways to stay warm? However if by some chance I was to eat, I dont know if i'd choose between eating a filthy rabies fested rodent or a healthy ahtletic person. I would prefer neither but you just never know once last second survival instincts kick in. ((Ive read once this trapped person actually ate his OWN flesh for a week before being rescued!)) So what would you do if you were in this situation?

spoilers a)palms of hand and soles of feet are reputedly the best cuts. b)the leg muscles are the next safest option.don't eat the head. c)drain the blood,you can't digest it. d)if you decide to survive like this at least eat decent sized portions. e)it doesn't smell or taste like chicken,pork is much more accurate. f)if you are in a position where you only have a choice between rabbit or human meat it is safer and physically healthier to eat human:rabbit contains nothing but empty bulk.

I'd resort to cannibalism before the plane even crashed.

Better yet, if you were a hot dog and you were hungry, would you eat yourself?

Read Stephen King "Survivor Type" short story from the book Skeleton Crew.

I discussed this with a friend once. I concluded that as the fattest person in most groups of people I would be with I'd mostly likely BE the food source for the others. Of course since I recently lost 80 pounds maybe that's not true anymore. But no I wouldn't resort to cannibalism, I'm a picky eater with a weak survival instinct.

My retort to cannibalism is always, "Eat me".

What I had in mind was boxing the compass.
