Is there a specific law against eating human flesh if there is no violence involved?

For example, if your arm was amputated and you cooked and ate your own meat. The arm is yours, and you didn't remove it specifically to eat it, who's to say you can't?

Answers:
There are laws against stealing or mutilating dead bodies. There are also laws against failing to report the finding of a dead body (thus foreclosing the possibility of feasting on some frozen homeless guy).

I don't think there are any laws against autocannibalism. In fact, it is not unheard of for new parents to celebrate the birth of their child by cooking and eating the mother's placenta.


No. Now go eat your arm Hannibal the Cannibal.
why would you want to eat human flesh? isn't that a little on the sick side of life.
You are nasty and really need help! Ihope you get it and can some day live a normal life.
there aren't any laws against it, and i understand you specifically aren't saying you want to to eat it, but even if you did. it would taste terrible.
I've heard it tastes like chicken.
It would taste similar to pork as we have very similar digestive systems and so on. Also, the word for it is spink (like the word for pig meat is pork). I'm all for it!
