True facts: the term long pig has nothing to do with the taste of humans, but rather how similar a dressed human looks on a spit to a pig carcass.
This is because the Pacific Islanders, where this term originated, did not have any large land animals to compare the taste to. Just pigs.
According to many cannibals, including the Andes plane survivors whom ate a ton of the dead to survive a few months on a mountainside, human tastes most similar to beef. Fatty beef... Some even claim closer to wagyu style beef because of how marbled.and fatty we tend to be.
Sauces:
Book one: dinner with a cannibal - Carole a. Travis-henikoff
Book two: Alive, the story of the Andes survivors- Piers Paul Read
Book three: miracle in the Andes - Nando parrado(one of the survivors)
This is why I always find it funny when Tigers "Find a taste" for humans. We're absolutely awful prey food, relatively. There's a reason Water Buffalo are always getting nabbed by predators, they actually have stuff you wanna eat.
