I think that it's only illegal if you chop off your own fingertip, then slip it into your chili at a restaurant and then try to defraud the restaurant by claiming you chomped down on "a body part" that was "mysteriously" in your chili.
Other than that, I don't know how anyone else would even know whether or not you were munching on your own body.
Especially, if you started with normally hidden parts, like your toes, your bellybutton, etc...
I suppose, however, that if you suddenly lost your big @ss (supposing you had a big one), and your friends knew that you weren't on a diet... they might become suspicious.

In my opinion I would say no. I guess in the case of doing it for survival. In the rare chance that youre stuck in antartica and must chew off your own limbs or the limbs of your friends in order to survive. In terms of legality, I guess one would have to wonder where you got human body parts in the first place? I'm not sure there is a legal way to get those for consumption. But if youre just feeling adventurous and want to try something different, I don't think its illegal to chop off one's own body parts and eating those.

I know that cannibalism is in fact illegal. I have never seen anywhere that there is an exemption for the flesh being your own. Sorry, you will have to go with pork, the other white meat.

Yes, in many jurisdictions it is illegal. Same as self mutilation. When you do what you propose, then you are indeed putting yourself at an exhorbitant risk of death. Most jurisdictions would commit you to psychiatric care, and quite frankly I think they should.

Lol, this is an abortion question in disguise. You want people to say that you can do what you want with your own body so that you can justify an abortion
you sicken me, grow a pair and ask the real question

That is highly gross. I hopr your not thinking about trying a taste of yourself. That is just wrong. And yes it is illegal, it is still cannibalism-you are human right-cannibalism is a human eating another human.

When your brain is already cooked you ask questions like this. So you may as well chow down!!!

It's probably against local, state, or federal health ordinances, but beyond that, no.

illegal, yes
unethical? ethics are defined by the social context that they exist in and i'm sure many will say it is wrong and some will say there is nothing wrong.
