Cannibalism
- "It's not like they killed her to eat her. It's how they dispose of their dead. They like to think they do their families some good after they're gone. It's rude not to tuck in."
"Cultural diversity's a wonderful thing. What do they do for desserts?" - ―Null ARC trooper A'den and Republic commando Fi, discussing the Marit's cannibalistic tradition
Cannibalism was the term for when a sentient species, sometimes due to food shortages or famine, ate members of their own kind.
The Rakatan individual known as The One forced many species to revert to this practice. The insectoid Colicoids were known cannibals. The reptilian Marits were traditionally cannibals, as well, though the Marits' only ate those who had already died, and did so as a means of disposing of the bodies in a way they deemed beneficial to the living.
