Addicted to eating husbands ashes.

Dude you are so lost it's not even funny.

Firstly my name is Spiro, not dude. And like I have said before, don't be so rude. This is not the way to have a civil conservation.

Eat ashes = not cannibalism... just gross

Gross, yes. Still classed as cannibalism which is called endocannibalism.

endocannibalism = eating someone of the same tribe

Yes, as well as buring [cremating] the bones on a fire with high heat and mixing them with bananas and adding them to a soup. This fact is sourced in my links above. Feel free to follow the links to other sources mind!

I'm not missing anything. All (reliable) sources define cannibalism as eating flesh (not ashes)

So, are you trying to tell me that endocannibalism is not a form of cannibalism? It appears you are and are missing the link!

Since modern crematories can get sooo hot they also destroy the bones (human cells, flesh) eating the ashes is not cannibalism. (no cells are left)

The same rule applies to bones being cremated on a fire [like they do in India traditions] in that the fires get so hot they destroy the bones, cells et al.

Again the difference lies in the fact that the tribes you are linking to were actually eating human cells and modern crematories are hot enough to leave no cells behind.

No they weren't. There is nothing left of the bones after being burned in a hot fire, other than bone dust. Just the same as a crematorium. If you disagree with this then I urge you to site reference to a website that has compared them both.

Please sir, don't tell me to STFU. How dare you be so rude. If you can't handle having a debate/discussion with me on this topic then please, pretty please, don't reply to me. Ok?

Cheers

Dude!

That is not what endocannibalism is.

Endocannibalism is eating someone of the same tribe, social group or society.

It has nothing to do with the fact the remains are cremated or mixed with bananas. Nothing at all.

So kindly please

I think taking an activated charcoal tablet would be a better treatment for getting rid of microbes. Bentonite clay works also. Eating your husbands ashes seems to help her, probably because of an imbalance of gut flora.

I'm just guessing, she could also be a little off, but self medicating is done by many people on a daily basis. Probably the first time she tasted the ashes she felt better, then got addicted to the meds. Common wood ash might do the same thing. Grilled meat that is grilled over real charcoal might also make her feel better.

Endocannibalism is a subdivision of learned, or customary, cannibalism. People who practice this form of anthropophagy do so as part of socially sanctioned or prescribed ritualistic behavior. It involves a member of a kinship group consuming the flesh of another member of that group. In most cases, endocannibalism is performed in veneration of the dead or to imbibe some esoteric quality of a person, such as wisdom. Endocannibalism also occurs in societies where anthropophagy isn't normally practiced. A chief of the Junkun tribe of West Africa consumes the hearts of previous chiefs and, in doing so, actually establishes a place for himself outside normalized society.

just sayin

animals eat remains or fecal matter or other certain things all the time for the nutrition they smell is needed

Thanks.

Further into the report under the image it says >

The Yanomamo tribes of Brazil and Venezuela are thought to have practiced endocannibalism by mixing the ashes of dead relatives with a plantain soup and consuming them. (Ed George/National Geographic/Getty Images)

Your not the sort of person I want to interact with on here. Very rude!!

You take care now.

Cheers

I get pretty tired of scrubbing ashtrays out with an old toothbrush every month. She can stop by and lick them clean anytime she wants to.

The question is ... what will she do when the ashes run out?
That's when things could get ugly. I hope she gets some psychological help.

What if...those ashes aren't just her husbands ashes...but a mix of the previous people cremated too? ....and, If someone was cremated who died from a disease , or a really bad disease ,like MRS or polio, can you catch it?

reminds me of a crazy movie called conquest;

one guy eats the ashes of his friend (who had mystical powers).

And then he gets the same powers.

Those "shows" are disgusting. Parading mentally ill people in front of the camera so the ignorant public can have something to poke fun of and make them think their pathetic lives aren't so bad. Modern day "freak shows".

I smoked my brothers ashes when he died. It was what he wanted

Not just ashes mind you

Was he a Tupac fan by chance? The Outlawz smoked his ashes due to his request as well. It's the only instance of this I have heard until I read your post. They didn't just smoke only the ashes either.

yes I have heard a story of a baby getting into the fireplace and eating charcoal, the parents freaked out and took him or her to the doctor and it turned out the baby had some kind of vitamin deficiency and was self medicating and somehow knew that what he or she needed was contained within the charcoal. maybe just a coincidence but a neat story I never forgot.

I was thinking the same thing... by what method will she continue to satisfy this need??

a reply to: mmirror

Hmm, OP have you looked at all under love spells?
My thinking is, if her husband used a spell on her,
to cause her to fall in love with him in the first
place? The particular of which would be a spell that
involves having a person of interest, drink a few drops
of ones blood unknowingly. Slipped in a drink some how.
I'd look it up myself but I'm involved with something at the
moment. But you may find something IDK. Shot in the dark.

Ok, this is just incredibly odd

Charred meat has some medicinal properties. Why is that. Because we evolved with the use of fire. We actually need some of the qualities that fire possesses. Activated charcoal is a very good medicine. When people looked at charred food and found carcinogens, they started avoiding them. Maybe they should have incorporated the companion food into the diet instead. The enzymes that neutralize the nitrosamines and many other carcinogens are molybdenum based. All you need is to consume foods containing this mineral when eating these things. Broccoli is high in this mineral, brocolli goes good with steak. So are beans, good homemade baked beans go good with a bbq. Both contain fiber also, which helps speed the digestion.

It's in my will that the same will happen to me. Part of my ashes will be spread over my "garden" as well so that all the proceeds from the garden will contain some of my essence. Clone those pants and ill be immortal haha

Er ma gerd!
This is some form of cannibalism. She needs help. I also heard of someone smoking some of their loved ones' ashes. It's beyond my understanding, I guess.
