Cannibalism: it's what for dinner (in some cultures)

Don't read while eating. From Global Politician:

A notorious and rare representative of this category of cannibalism is the punitive ritual of being eaten alive. The kings of the tribes of the Cook Islands were thought to embody the gods. They punished dissent by dissecting their screaming and conscious adversaries and consuming their flesh piecemeal, eyeballs first.

The article, by the way, can only be described as pro-cannibalism. No, I'm not joking.
