The practice of cannibalism in the Fiji islands is not "anecdotal."

It is well documented by western travelers and by the fijian people themselves. It wasn't a one-off or rare thing---it was a basic part of Fijian society. Cannibalism in Fiji was first documented by Captain Cook in the 1760s and continued up into the 19th century. The last person eaten was a Scottish missionary in 1867------like most other discerning people the Fijians apparently found Scottish food to be disgusting, and abandoned cannibalism shortly afterward.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Plantagenet', '
')Cannibals don't eat their friends. They eat their enemies. The Fijians would raid enemy villages, capture victims and bring them back to cook them for food. Supposedly they would break their legs so they couldn't run away, and then keep them alive until "long pig" day came around on the menu again.

My source is Jonah Vatunigere, a Fijian historian.

Whats your source for claiming you know more than the Fijians do about their own history and culture?

A guy who's gramps once told him, people taste like pork? I believe he considers himself an actor/writer and not a historian.
