    that's only one walker. It could have been someone who was being eaten by maggots before death - which does happen but in unusual circumstances.

    Bacteria is what makes the flesh and meat rot. Bacteria is what causes the rotting process. We know they have bacteria.

    It all depends on the virus mechanism of life. I sure as hell wouldn't eat a walker if I had no other alternative.

    Again, the bacteria don't possess the same mechanisms of animal avoidance that flies do.

    If you have to dream up outlandish reasons why, despite their rotted and maggoty appearance, walkers are not "really" rotted and maggoty and perfectly safe to eat then most likely you are trying too hard to prove something that just isn't true. Occam's razor.

    I've never seen a person resort to such absurdity to stubbornly defend his OP's no matter what the evidence lol.

    We don't KNOW if they're eating people or walkers. THAT's what we're trying to figure out.

    Yes we do. There has been zero evidence in the TV show that anyone is eating people OR walkers. At all.

    It's all speculation that someone might be, which is based on the comics where they are. But in the comics NO ONE is eating walkers.

    Aside from the high chance of the meat being enough to initiate a fever, they are rotting corpses. They'd likely carry a bunch of other diseases. So no, probably not a good idea.

    I'd put a band aid in my walker and send it back to the kitchen, saying I found it in there.

    You'd totally get another walker on the house. Nice play, Sir. Nice, play.

    I don't think some of us are really thinking about what the comics are saying. I sure as hell don't care. I'm interested in the POSSIBILITY of it - whether its in the comics or not. The concept of it. You know, it MAKES interesting discussion. Don't take it so damn personal.

    No, see, that's where the trick comes in. When they say they'll cook me another one, i'll just say "no, I've lost my appetite for walkers now, I'll have the North Atlantic Cod, please. This way not only do I get to avoid eating walker, but I get free fish.

    I'm not taking it personally. You, on the other hand, seem to be very upset.

    In the post I quoted of yours (which is where you got the post of mine you are quoting), you were "trying to figure out" if they were eating people or walkers, so I pointed out the facts for you. Now you're just interested in the POSSIBILITY. So we can go back to the earlier discussion, to which the answer is no, you can't eat walkers.

    In a ZA I'd live by the assumption that the rotting flesh of a zombie is probably even worse for you than naturally rotting flesh and avoid eating undead meat.
