Line 205:
* Eating human brain is (or was) a practice of several cultures, either as a funeral rite or just part of eating people. It's usually for the purpose of taking knowledge, gaining immortality, or whatever.
* Brain (of animals) is actually a delicacy in several countries, which probably makes humans [[Humans Are Cthulhu|kind of monstrous]] to them.
** Note that the current edition of ''The Joy Of Cooking'' omits all recipes that contain animal brains, and states that this is due to concerns over mad cow disease (see above).▼
** If you do feel like eating some, like say scrambled pork brain, keep in mind that this type of food is ''amazingly'' high in cholesterol and fat; a little over a 100 g can easily exceed 1000% of the recommended daily cholesterol intake.▼

* There's an account of a rogue baboon killing people and eating their brains.
** A cryptid, the Nandi Bear, is alleged to do this as well.
