In response to this, I think there should be some restrictions. Perhaps eating meat from one of your other characters or someone you've memorized/kinned would instantly kill you. (Endocannibalism causes kuru for sure, not sure about exocannibalism though) I think this would be a nice balance and a way of making it slightly more realistic.
Not a bad idea. Also, a phrase quickly becoming my favourite, "abusus non tollit usum"; there may be legitimate needs to cannibalise an human corpse.
For instance, if a person is starving, he should be able to eat an human corpse - even if an alt - with absolutely no penalty. Perhaps it should only be an option if you are undergoing the starvation injury.
Kuru isn't a bad idea, either - a progressive disease that will eventually kill you.
I think it would be fair if an human corpse would give no FEPs, don't you? That would deter anyone abusing alts for the sake of upping a stat...
