Apparently, in some cases, cannibalism still occurs in the near enough time in the middle of the modern environment. For example, as Jeffrey Dahmer did.
Quoted from the ranker.com on Wednesday (10/11/2017), the man who is called the most famous cannibal of the 20th Century is even telling the taste of human flesh that he ate.
To the FBI investigator, Dahmer confessed to eating various parts of his victim's body, including the thighs, arm muscles, and several internal organs.
Based on his own experience, the taste of human flesh is recognized as a piece of filet mignon. When talking about beef steaks, then the filet mignon pieces are among the most expensive.
Some other cannibalists claim the taste of human meat better than conventional roasted meat.
Surprisingly, there is a recurring theme when explaining human flesh flavor, namely the presence of sweetness. Some cannibalistic tribes in Vanuatu, South Pacific, call it "very sweet."

Meanwhile, Issei Sagawa said that, after a few days, "the flesh becomes sweeter and tastes good."
But, according to the man who was nicknamed "Kanibal Paris" is, human flesh as if it does not smell even sweet taste. He said, "The flesh does not have the smell of wild game."
According to the Japan Today page, a Japanese man who, at the Sorbonne Academy, Paris, France, was arrested in June 1981 on charges of murdering a Dutch student named Renee Hartevelt (25).
After killing his college colleague, he ate some parts of the victim's body either in raw condition or in the form of spicy stir-fry.
Sagawa stifled the urge from childhood and learned about cannibalism from a fairy tale. But, as he realizes the inner drive to eat human flesh, Sagawa never consulted a psychiatrist.
