America was an English colony and England has historically engaged in literal cannibalism, which is why mummies are a rarity as well as quite a few graves being emptied when the supply of mummies ran dry, it is a very reasonable deduction to say that Americans engaging in cannibalism.

The reason so few mummies exist is also why so many Irish can't trace there ancestory past the 15-1700s; the English ate them.

I thought A Modest Proposal was satire

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 7 points 4 days ago

It was. But he was mocking how people would literally talk about the Irish in English society, so it wasn't too far off.

Oh. I thought that the Irish were forced to eat their own during their genocide with a controlled famine brought about by the English colonizing the island. I'll take a looksy.

That's such a fucked up history tidbit, eating literal mummies.

He's gonna send all the English to the cornfield

It's funny because his name is Bill Mumy and he played that kid on that episode of The Twilight Zone

C'mon they're already dead and I doubt prions survive mummification.

[–] PolarKraken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Uhhh?? Merely terrestrial ones probably don't, but I mean...sheesh friend, be picky with who you eat out there!

How else do you think we ended up in this mess?!

[–] JustSo@hexbear.net 2 points 3 days ago

Shit you've given me a lot to ponder over this teriyaki mummy.

[–] JustSo@hexbear.net 5 points 4 days ago

We've all done it. Historically or w/e I guess. It's nbd.
