As repugnant as cannibalism is to our modern sensibilities, most of us could forgive instances where there was no murder involved, and the only alternative would be to starve to death. Read about five such cases in this post.
Perhaps the most famous act of cannibalism in recent history took place in the mountains of Chile during the winter of 1972. Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 was carrying 45 passengers, including members of a rugby team and their families, when it crashed high in the Andes. Of the twenty-nine who survived the crash, eight died in an avalanche, leaving the remaining survivors with a whole heap of frozen meat and a difficult moral decision to make.

I hate cold weather, but I'll always be thankful it isn't as bad as that.
