I must confess that my first reaction was one of revulsion. Me??? A
practicing cannibal???? That’s my cultural bias showing through.

Besides ACC, Heinlein attacked the issue of cannibalism head on in his
classic novel “Stranger in A Strange Land” – and with a tad of humor.
Heinlein also grappled with cannibalism in "Door into Summer" - on a
much more sinister scale.
