How nutritious is soylent green anyway? 
Okay, in all seriousness, I really can't predict how easy or hard it would be to overcome that particular taboo once you're faced with the need to feed 10 billion people. If it's institutionalized, like, corpses are shipped en masse to a government facility and processed, so you don't actually have to think about how you might be eating grampa? I'm guessing it's still way too disturbing for everyone, but what do I know.

PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
