Obviously we are going to be at the top of the food web. Now think of animals that we eat (e.g. hamburgers = cows, bacon = pigs, eggs = chickens, tuna = fish, etc.) Choose whichever one you like and then figure out what they eat...

humans never get eaten, except in rare circumstances by sharks but that's about it. On the other hand you could produce a food web which involves things being eaten by humans, plenty of options there

A web is different than a chain. A web states that all are inter-related (eat and eaten). Obviously humans have no predators, but we are decomposed by various bacteria and fungi found in soil.

Humans eat - other carnivore - eats herbivore - eats plants - uses soil nutrients-

Humans eat herbivores - eat plants - use soil nutrients

Humans die - decomposed in soil by bacteria - provides nutrients

It is a cycle, we are on top of the "food pyramid" as the predators. But then when we die whe are eaten and decomposed by bacteria and other organisms.
We are dust and to dust we go back...

How about, lobster. Lobsters live at the bottom of the ocean and scavenge just about anything that comes their way. Then they get caught and eaten.
