Mind you, some races did eat humans didn't they?  I have my eye on a certain
section that may prove more useful as food as they are not a lot of good for
anything else!  Just joking (!) of course, before anyone gets upset.  Dee

I wonder what the flesh of human babies taste like...
They smell so tempting!

There's a marvellous SF book by Donald Kingsbury 'Geta'. I believe it was
called 'Courtship Rites' in America about an energy poor planet.  Man has
colonised it in the distant past it is not really suitable for sustaining
human life. It's indigenous plants and animals cannot be eaten so are 
profane' and the only flesh available is human, so cannibalism has become a
sacred ritual. It talks about eating unwanted babies but doesn't mention
what the flesh tastes like. It really is a fascinating book about the kind
of society that could grow up. it was always one of my favourites.
