As a hungry zombie, you need to know the human body. Don't you think it would be nice to know whether you are eating the spleen or the -blech- colon? Today we will be discussing the parts of the human body and whether or not they are suitable for raw consumption. I will also be providing a diagram of where to find these body parts and organs. I am assuming because you are reading this that you are a newly turned zombie, as an experienced zombie should already know most of this. If there are any questions feel free to ask!
Lesson One:
When you are feasting on human beings, odds are you aren't going to have much time to prepare and consume them. You will be consuming them raw and in many cases still alive, kicking and screaming. So therefore I believe that we should start with the human muscle system. In many cases this will not only be the easiest part of the human to eat, but the leanest part as well. Keep in mind that when you are consuming human flesh, you will have to go through three main layers of skin (epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis) to get to the muscular and fatty tissues. For consumption I would suggest eating the larger muscles and muscle groups. The muscles in the thighs, such as the Sartorious and the Femoris muscles should be rather lean cuts of meat. The gluteus maximus usually tends to be a fatty cut of meat (especially on human women). Rather fit and athletic humans may also have rather large and lean biceps, triceps, and deltoids. If you are in a hurry do not bother with the Frontaris or any of the muscles on the torso of the human. The Frontaris the rather small, thin muscle that covers the skull, so unless you actually have the time to deal with it, I wouldn't bother. The torso muscles tend to cover the internal organs of the human so unless you have time to consume those as well, it would just be a waste. Anything you do not have the time to consume would be best left for another zombie.
Lesson Two:
Now for the zombies who have the time and want a more "gourmet" meal, internal organs can not only provide proper sustenance, but can also be very tasty. Most of the internal organs are located in the torso. The heart and lungs are protected by the Rib cage and sternum. Underneath those, in the lower torso, are the rest of the internal organs. Before I get into the best and worst of the internal organs, I would like to point out that you should only attempt to consume them if you have the time and there are no rogue humans out hunting for you! Now if you have the time and the patience, the absolute best internal organ that the human possesses for consumption is the brain. The brain is the only internal organ not located in the torso. It is located inside the skull, or head, of the human. It also has to be the absolute best part of the human body! It is well worth the time and effort to get to! As far as internal organs of the torso, the heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys are all top picks in my book. Most of them contain high levels of blood and oxygen, both of which make for wonderful eating. I would stay away from the stomach, large intestines, colon, and bladder as they all deal with human waste. The stomach also contains copious amounts of an acid made mostly of hydrochloric acid, potassium chloride, and sodium chloride all of which can be very caustic.
There are many things about the human body that even humans are still trying to figure out, but for the most part any portion of the human body can be consumed by a zombie. There are instances when one can not be too picky about what he consumes. If you find yourself fighting with a horde over one body grab what you can quickly and then go in search of another human. There is no sense in several zombies fighting over one body.
