It would depend on the cultural context.
If he was in Papua New Guinea with the Fore tribe, for instance, I think he would, especially if not informed about the risk of contracting kuru.

Also, if Andrew visited the Aghoris in India, I suspect he would honor their culture by sharing with them the human carrion they retrieve from the Ganges River.

I personally think he would if no murder was involved. He is the ultimate foodie and will everything once.

However, he doesn't drink alcohol. When I got to meet Bourdain at a meet n' greet, he talked about Zimmern's abstinence from alcohol.

No way . . .

Only if they were seasoned and cooked properly and chopped up in a stewso he can claim ignorance when questioned by the cops.

"Oh my God! I thought that was goat!"

Based on what I've seen so far, I think he would.

I understand that around the world, there are many different cultures and different things to experience. Some meals I've seen have even seemed yummy (this Vietnam fish dish) while others were not so yummy but...I think that there are some things that are just out of hand for my blood. It's ridiculous to eat human meat. I'm sorry but this is my opinion.

I don't care what anyone says-Woody Allen is an idiot.

I seriously doubt he would. Just because he goes around the world eating weird and exotic foods for a TV show, doesn't mean he's a cannibal.

reply

I absolutely think he would. I think he would eat a turd if the situation called for it. Just because you can put it in your mouth and swallow it doesn't make it food. He's a gross-out!

reply

He wouldn't. There have been plenty of instances where he skipped eating something for a variety of reasons, mostly for health risks.

reply

And note dedaseven, he HAS eaten turds. As noted elsewhere, every bug he has eaten had a turd in its' little bug but and he snarfed it down anyhow.

Any bug I eat is at least getting an enema first.

reply

I agree with you! He would ABSOLUTELY eat human meat. Oh and he did eat a turd on one episode! It was a goat turd...I think! He grosses me out!

reply

No.

reply

Yes.

reply

YES .... he would, he has basically stated he would. In the episode he was with that tribe that circumcised that boy and it was tradition that the grandfather eats the foreskin he said he was scared they was gonna offer him a piece cause he was a guest, and he said if they would had, he would had ate it so he didn't disrespect them... some times I think he goes a little to far with the shock value. Plus I am thinking deep down he really did want to eat some of that foreskin.
