* In what may be the most fitting ending ever to a cannibal movie, ''[[The Anthropophagus Beast]]'' ends with the villain, an insane cannibal, being disemboweled with a pickax... and attempting to devour his own intestines. He doesn't get very far before he dies.
* ''[[Spaceballs]]'' features Pizza the Hutt's robot sidekick tasting him and saying he's delicious. Later, we learn that they got trapped in their limo, and Pizza the Hutt ate himself to death.
* The Gingerbread Man in ''[[The Brothers Grimm (film)|The Brothers Grimm]]'' bites off his own thumb and comments, "I taste good!" before running away.
* After Charlie, his grandfather and Willy Wonka leave the factory in the Wonkavator near the end of ''[[Charlie and the Chocolate Factory]]'', Augustus Gloop's mother admonishes her fudge-covered (or possibly just plain ''fudge-ified'') son not to eat his fingers.

* Another example is the [[Stephen King]] story "Survivor Type," where a surgeon who crash-landed on an island keeps himself alive by {{spoiler|amputating and eating parts of his own body}}.
* An example from [[Philip K. Dick]]'s short story 'Beyond Lies The Wub', where the titular creature {{spoiler|takes over the Captain's body, allowing it to eat its own delicious flesh - which was presumably inhabited by the Captain at the time it was beingshot eatenby the Captain/Wub.}}
* The cow at the ''[[Hitch Hikers Guide to The Galaxy|Restaurant At The End Of The Universe]]'' [[Invoked Trope|deliberately]] is like this. At some point (possibly after the breeding of or contact with sapient bovines) it was reckoned that all this slaughtering animals that had no idea what was coming and wasn't too happy about it when it did was animal cruelty, and something should be done about it. So, naturally, the logical conclusion was to breed an animal whose greatest desire was to be slaughtered and eaten, and was intelligent enough to say so—and even recommend particularly good cuts of itself.
