Do Carnivore and "Only things that are still alive while I'm eating them" include cannibal?

I should have added a 'cannibalism' option, and I was also thinking maybe a "crunchy chicks" option.

Technically cannibals are omnivores, but as a ritual they eat their dead chieftains.

Omnivore. I don't really give a crap if vegetarian/vegans don't wanna eat meat because of their beliefs, that just leaves more for me. I don't buy this BS about how it is wrong to eat meat

If eating meat is murder fine, just pass me that BBQ sauce; as Denis Leary once said: "Meat tastes like murder, and murder tastes pretty good, doesn't it?"

I voted carnivore but then it does not include food stuff like pork. I try and limit myself to the Biblical defination of animal food. Well as far as the sea food is concerned prawns and some simillar beings do not make it to the Biblical defination of food but then again I enjoy eating it.

Thanks for the dictionary definitions... I eat honey, eggs, and dairy, and I wear wool, therefore I am unable to vote in your poll.

I would have requested to add 'cryptonite' if superman was voting on this poll.
As far as 'antimatter' is concerned I only eat that when I am antihungry .
Any physicist on the poll here?
