no, don't worry, it was raccoon meat the entire time.

No way except if it was a life or death situation, I really can't see myself eating it and enjoying it on a restaurant like it's a normal thing, I can totally imagine how would be like.

"Anything you'd like sir?"

"Why yes I would like one cooked up leg from that hobo that died across the street with a slight spicyness added to it, with mashed potatoes and a bottle of your finest wine."

Technically its legal in most places. As a dead body cant be owned, nor is it a legal person.
So long as you didnt kill whoever it was, or break into wherever the body was.

i was thinking about this but i couldn't remember what animal it was

With artifical organs, you could buy human meat I guess

how much should it cost at a restaurant

i think it's true except for when it's stuffed (taxadermist)
but that's probably not edible

humans are more populous than cattle so the per pound cost should be lower

Only in a survival scenario, and I'd probably eat maggots before I'd eat human flesh. Kuru is a stuffty way to die.

humans are more populous than cattle so the per pound cost should be lower
As of 13 years ago there were about 1.3 billion cattle worldwide. So humans outnumber them around 6:1. So humans would be cheaper based on availability.
However the average cattle (all breeds, both genders) weighs 753kg, whereas an average person is around 62kg (worldwide average).
That makes the average cow 12 times as massive as the average human. And cows have quite a high meat:bone:organ ratio.

So, there's some 980+ billion kilos of cattle, compared to 460+ billion kg of human on the planet.

So just by population alone cattle should be cheaper per pound than humans, let alone the cost of rearing a human to maturity, which takes 18 years of feeding and sheltering.
And human food is more expensive than grass for cattle.

Only if I had consent from the person that I'd be eating.

Kuru is extremely rare.
Only if I had consent from the person that I'd be eating.
