When Henri III of Navarre was trying to claim the French throne in 1590, he ended up endangering the Parisian food supply. The starving people turned to horses, mules, their pets, grass in the parks, and finally “Madame de Montpensier’s bread,” which was a ‘bread’ made out of ground up bones in lieu of flour.

There was once a group of artists from Finland (might have been Norway or Sweden) that came to my college to talk about their work, and they had found a skeleton in the basement of their new house. But it was over 100 yrs old, so they could keep it, and they ground his bones up and baked it into bread and set out to see how many people would eat bread made out of people.

They played a video of them grinding the bones and making the bread and then serving it to people. And a lot of people decided to try it.

This is why I laughed really hard when I saw a pic of Mads Mikkelsen eating a slice of bread.

If you see Hannibal eating bread, guys, IT COULD BE PEOPLE.

Maybe its how he gets rid of the bones???
