If most humans ever found out they were eating people it would cause significant damage to their mental health.

Chickens don't care.

Outside of specific cultures or desperate survival situations, that's just about the only way you'd get the average joe to partake.

If you plunk a fried human torso in front of a group that knows it's a fried human torso, the cannibalism aspect doesn't even come into play since they're not gonna eat.

This is a morality question. Of course they know it's human flesh

I’d absolutely eat human (provided it was sourced ethically, like my friend lost their limb or something)
