The Munchies

Trapped in a car wreck for a week on the side of a snowy highway with nothing but a dull knife, Jason ate his last meal. Or next to last. But with both legs and one arm gone, he found it hard to cut off any more parts, and thought, if rescued, he might need the head and torso.

But the munchies struck late that night, and he used the knife, and when he was halfway finished eating his own liver, he died.

And, of course, a rescue truck showed up.
