Warning: Consensual Cannibalism
"Three weeks after his accident, our anonymous redditor invited his friends for a meal: On Sunday, July 10, 2016, three weeks after the accident, Shiny, who prefers to remain anonymous, invited 10 of his most open-minded friends to a special brunch..."
"They ate apple strudel, quiche puff pastries, fruit tarts, and chocolate cake. They drank gin lemonade punches and mimosas. And then the main course came out: fajita tacos made from Shiny’s severed human limb."

Maybe it's because they had onions and peppers?

There's not a lot of meat on a foot, so you have to stretch it with some onions and bell peppers.

Well technically you make tacos from fajitas, but it does seem like only a heel would actually call them “fajita tacos”.

I didn't think reading this would make me heave, but here I am, heaving a little bit. I mean, it's just meat, but ... I don't know.
(Also probably they should have stewed it instead, made carne guisada or something if they wanted to go tex-mex.)
(Also also fajita "technically" refers to the cut of beef, the skirt steak... which is the diaphgram, which in itself is a little bit grody.)

I had a vegan friend who liked to remind people that he was vegan "except for consensual cannibalism," which he considered morally consistent with veganism. That conversion then, if I recall, led to discussion of Armin Meiwes (Google at your own risk). I'm certain my friend would not have partaken in Meiwes-style cannibalism, but a taste of a friend's foot? I bet!

Cannibalism may not be illegal (except in Idaho! Be sure to remember that just in case!) but there are a lot of rules and regulations regarding biomedical waste. I can’t imagine my hospital giving someone their amputated limb without a lot of meetings and discussions with risk management.
Did this remind any other internet old-timers of Paul “Freck” Morgan, of cutoffmyfeet.com? (Link goes to news story as cutoffmyfeet.com is now sadly defunct.)

From Paul Slade’s link above: In Idaho, anthropophagy (called cannibalism by statute) is illegal. The statute makes it an offense to drink human blood or consume human flesh, punishable by up to fourteen years in prison.

It’s fucked up, but what grosses me out more than eating Person, is eating the flesh of something that is still living. Like, I’d probably try whole-roasted Person because that has clearly crossed the line that separates living thing and food, but I’d still feel weird about eating the amputed leg of a lamb that’s still out there stumbling around the yard. Albeit a little less weird than eating human foot.
Also, I’m a little weirded out by eating something that consented to be eaten. FOOD DOES NOT CONSENT TO BEING EATED.

I started reading this and got worried because my former neighbor also lost his foot in a horrific motorcycle accident but as I kept reading it became obvious it wasn't the same guy.
I've often wondered if you had a limb amputated and wanted to keep it, would they let you. I mean... it's yours, isn't it? I would probably ask to keep anything of mine that was removed. Not sure I'd eat it though.
I think I would have partaken in this meal. I'm not religious at all, I believe meat is meat and if you're ok with eating a cow you should be ok with eating a dog (but maybe not, you know, your neighbor's dog) or a horse or... sure, why not, a human. As long as it's legal and ethical (assuming you feel eating meat is ethical) where you are.

It's super strange that people are weirded out more by consent than by the idea that it's human flesh. Like, (relatively) lots of people will eat a human placenta, but that's actually part of the baby and consent can't be granted. But a foot that is clearly part of a person who is capable of making decisions about the disposition of their limbs? Suddenly it's so creepy.
One of the interesting things about kidney transplants is that in general they don't remove the old kidney; they just stitch in another one. If they did remove the kidneys, I'm wondering if there'd be a whole underground dining scene around it.

In Asia, it's not uncommon to eat placentas (like the redditor mentioned), to the point of there being quite a number of placenta encapsulation companies (and, until goverments enacted restrictions - people selling placentas). I think any culture that practices some form of TCM has normalized or at least accepted placenta-eating to some degree.

So I was once totally inspired by the idea that my friends and family should eat me after I die. I pictured it like being incorporated into them, being a part of them forever. It was a really beautiful thought.
Then I learned about prions and Kuru, and how HIV likely mutated from SIV that was acquired by humans by eating apes, which are so closely related to us ...
and I realised that eating closely related species or your own species is just a really, really bad idea, healthwise. (This was much more convincing to me than than 'ewww, yuck!' argument).

Huh. Fifteen years ago one of the other bar regulars posed this situation (yes it was near closing time, why do you ask?). I recall saying I would partake, based on consent and that if this were to happen, the amputee would likely appreciate the show of comradery.
But it was a hypothetical. A real-life example just makes it more fraught.

I’d still feel weird about eating the amputed leg of a lamb that’s still out there stumbling around the yard.
You've reminded me of an old joke.
Mike's car breaks down in the middle of nowhere and he asks for help at a nearby farm. The family couldn't be nicer: they use their tractor to tow his car into their yard and arrange for a local mechanic to come out and fix it next day. They make up a bed for Mike in the spare room and insist he eat with them that evening.
After a hearty home-cooked meal, the farmer takes Mike for a walk round his property. Heading back to the house, they sees a pig with a wooden leg making its way through the yard. "What happened to that little guy?" Mike asks.
"Aww, that's Billy," the farmer replies. "Damnedest thing. We had a fire here a year or two back when the whole family was asleep. Billy ran inside when saw the smoke, rattled his hooves on the bedroom door and woke me and the missus up before the fire could get to us. Then he ran through the flames to the nursery, grabbed the baby's smock in his mouth and dragged her out to where she was safe in the yard."
"That's quite a story," says Mike. "And I suppose Billy lost his leg from the wounds he got in the fire?"
"No, it weren't that," the farmer replied, leaning down to tickle Billy behind the ear. "He got out of the fire just fine. But Billy's courage and heart saved all our lives that night, mister. And you don't eat a pig like that all at once."
Edit: WhileI was writing this, MarchHare beat me to it with the punchline. Still, maybe there'll be some people who don't know the whole thing...

So I guess this might be an uncommon thought to have, but:
If I was going to be one of the few people around to have eaten human flesh, I wouldn't want to be having it in a highly-spiced form of fajitas/tacos. I'd want to know what it really tastes like. Otherwise, what's the point?

In Asia, it's not uncommon to eat placentas
Is there a citation for this?
Not a citation but, TV commercials for placenta capsules run frequently during the day here in Japan. Alas, they’re not sourced from humans, but from the finest Danish sows.
(Or, at least the brand I’ve seen enough to remember the on-screen fine print is)
Always makes me think of baby frogs and lark’s vomit.

I used to Internet-know a trans woman who ate her testicles after having an orchidectomy - there were plenty of photos. Fried in butter, neatly halved and served on toast. Yes, she was also a redditor.

Is there a citation for this? Because it could also be said that "it's not uncommon for the Kardashians to eat placentas."
Google's your friend. (First link that comes up in a search is this, there's also this, this, this etc, and not counting all the many non-English links that would not appear on English searches. Or the Asia-based mom/pregnancy discussion boards where people trade placenta-preservation advice and recipes.)
Like I said, this practice/belief was transmitted through TCM and dates back centuries, so it's not really weird to people who subscribe to TCM ideas. The encapsulation trend is a modernized version/interpretation of TCM beliefs, and may perhaps have encouraged more people (especially the younger generation) to carry on or re-adopt this practice*. Some people say the placenta is less potent if you eat it in pill form, though. (Broadly speaking - encapsulation has been around for decades (i.e. the Kardashians did not invent this for us), and I believe it's part of the wider progression of modernizing TCM and making it more convenient/congruous with modern Asian lifestyles - many other Chinese herbal medicines are also available in pill form where previously (like maybe 2 generations ago) they were only available as herb packets that you needed to boil/brew manually, etc.) I think the placenta-smoothie trend comes from the West though. The cooking method (or rather lack thereof) just doesn't seem inline with the TCM beliefs I know (method is too "yin" I think); I could be wrong though.
I'm Asian, grew up in Asia, my friends who have given birth where I'm from have all had the option of preserving their placentas, a number of them chose to do that and ate their placentas. Not unusual to go over to a friend's house after her delivery and see her placenta in the freezer/fridge. If I ever produce a viable placenta, I intend to eat it too.
*That this practice was re-adopted by some, or faced a dip then resurgence in popularity has a lot to do with the interplay between influences from Western colonialism/imperialism and TCM beliefs - but it's always been there in the culture, and part of a wider historical narrative of colonialism/postcolonialism/imperialism in Asia and the ever-ongoing debate of what it means to "modernize" on Asian terms, etc. I guess for this stuff academic journals (instead of Google) may be your friend.

My uncle wanted to put his amputated ankle joint on the top of a cane. He took it to a friend who keeps flesh-eating insects for cleaning bones, but his friend said no because he was worried there would be antibiotics in the flesh that would kill the insects (which are apparently very, very expensive).

Me too. I've always wondered since reading about Wendigos in undergrad -- Wendigo being an Algonquian word for spirit-possessed cannibals -- If I remember correctly, many of them may have started out eating human flesh only because of desperate starvation during a bleak Canadian winter, but a cultural understanding held by many First Nations groups was that a Wendigo kept on eating human flesh because supposedly they found it so much tastier than other kinds. Here's one historical example that Canada prosecuted.
Canadian law doesn't mention cannibalism by name but it seems to me that this effectively outlaws it: "every one who . . . improperly or indecently interferes with or offers any indignity to a dead human body or human remains, whether buried or not, is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years."
(Wikipedia on Wendigo as concept or metaphor: "In addition to denoting a cannibalistic monster from their traditional folklore, Native Americans also understand the wendigo conceptually. As a concept, the wendigo can apply to any person, idea, or movement infected by a corrosive drive toward self-aggrandizing greed and excessive consumption, traits that sow disharmony and destruction if left unchecked." hmmm this suits 45 exactly...)

I'm familiar with Wendigos through the Marvel Comics version, which is a big white-furred critter with Hulk-level strength. In fact, Wolverine's first appearance is basically a big three-way fight between him, the Hulk, and "Wendy." Looking at Wendy's Wikipedia entry, we get this tidbit: "The Wendigo makes another appearance in the MC2 imprint of Marvel Comics, an alternate future featuring, among others, the children of existing Marvel superheroes. In an issue of Wild Thing, Hulk, Doctor Strange, Wolverine, and Wolverine's daughter Wild Thing encounter a large number of Wendigos, which turn out to be a lost cub scout troop that had eaten its scoutmaster." Uh... OK, then.

Before we cast it, I quickly took a knife from my kitchen and cut a chunk off the top of my shin. The skin was already kind of off from the surgery, leaving a big chunk of muscle exposed. I just took the muscle. I put it in a plastic bag and put it in my freezer.
Sorry for the pedantry, but I had to put my foot down.
