Had an odd thought on the drive home. Different animals taste different depending on their diet, for example grass fed beef versus grain fed beef. The same is true of venison or lamb meat, the taste can vary greatly based upon the local fauna upon which they nibble. Logically the same would be true of humans as well. So what I wonder is, in the areas in which cannibalism took off as compared to where it didn't if the true issue was the social mores and ethics of the people, or just the general tastiness of their fellow citizens...just food for thought.

That's... actually an interesting question.

I meant flora, not fauna. Unless lambs and deer are leading secret lives unbeknownst to us.
