We are all dust

A blog of my delusional, random thoughts.

Are we all cannibals?!

Do not read this if you have a weak stomach!

No seriously. Every day we shed skin. Not enough to notice of course (at least not most of us), but enough to leave just a little bit of ourselves just about everywhere we go, and on anything we touch.

So imagine... Just about everything we eat has probably been touched by human hands at least once in the process of getting that food to our plate.

Although the amount of skin that would be transferred to our food by the handling of other people, I am pretty sure that some of it is consumed by us!

So here is my thought. In our lifetime, how much human flesh does the average human consume? Is it enough to technically consider us cannibals? And how much human flesh would one need to consume before they could or would be considered a cannibal?

Sure it is a disgusting thought, and of course most of us are not going to sit down and have a feast of human flesh, but am I wrong to think this?! I think it is true. Of course I don't know the numbers, and I really don't care to. This just popped in my head, and I thought I would inform the rest of you cannibals...
