autocannibalism is not illegal and apparently cannibalism isn’t illegal either but naturally there are laws that outlaw the purchase of human meat. i truly don’t mean to be a prick but you do know this was an easy search on google right?
Not particularly. As far as I’m aware, killing or assaulting someone and eating them is illegal of course, but the act of cannibalism itself is not in the US. There’s a famous Reddit story of a guy who got his foot amputated and managed to keep it through legal paperwork and took it home, cooked and ate it because he was curious.
I took a tiny bite out of one of my boobs once when I was in my self injurious phase. It didn’t hurt but left a really ugly scar. It looks like a cigarette burn
I recently had a double mastectomy, and I asked if I could keep the tissue afterwards. They said I could pick it up after it was dissected in a lab and confirmed that I didn’t have any tumors/cancer. When I picked them up the other day, the lab technician looked me dead in the eyes and explained that the tissue had been put through a variety of chemicals and was NOT safe to eat. I did not plan on eating my tits regardless, but the way she said it made me think this has been a Problem™ in the past…
Others have said it is straight up illegal, but they’re ignoring the reason for making it illegal is likely for the same reason suicide is illegal (i.e. so the police can have full jurisdiction to stop someone from harming themselves). If you simply cook up a slab of yourself, then turn yourself in, the repercussions will likely be a mental hospital or something.
It’s not exactly legal but also not specifically outlawed. There’s no law that says it is but there are other laws that totally come into play, like murder, assault, or desecration of a corpse, which would pretty much cover it. Basically, you could end up in some serious trouble for doing something like that.
Oh to be that flexible. Seriously though, if you wanted to hack off your own leg, and roast it and eat it, I can’t see how it would be illegal. It is your own body after all.

Depends on how badly you want to survive
Yeah I eat my little hangnails all the time
Not sure I’d taste good
Yes but it’s gross.
Yes because you provided consent.
type of shit I think when I eat little itty bitty parts of my skin around my nails
Technically you can as there was a guy who ate his own amputated leg (he made tacos out it!) Source

I’m not that flexible.
One way to find out
no, tuck in.
it’s not illegal but it might be hard unless you remove a rib or two and get very flexible
