Perhaps cultured dog meat would make a better argument? I think I would try it, if I knew it came out of a petri dish* and not a dog.

That's hilarious.
Pedestrian makes a good point. And to answer her question – I'd definitely eat dog meat if I liked the taste. I'd probably eat it if I visited China and it didn't come from a... Ahem.. Petri dish. And I love dogs.
Human meat wouldn't happen. There's a taboo around that which needs to be there. I'm not a biologist or anything, but I believe we (remote tribal customs notwithstanding) evolved a nearly hardwires aversion to it.
But hell – even if some company started selling it, at least it isn't killing humans.
