Thats cannabalism because your eating the same species. So yes its morally wrong and unethical aside from being just plain gross.

As far as we (Jews) are concerned, it becomes, if to survive, we have no other option. Anything takes precedence to giving up on life.

I suppose it would help if the parents gave us permission to eat it, but, we don't ask sheep permission to eat their lambs, do we?

In many cultures, people eat their afterbirth/placenta. It's full of protein, apparently. I imagine a dead fetus would be similiar.

Why did you title this post "eating dead fetus in China"?
Totally agree with Sam

No matter what angle one sees this act I still can't find any side that makes it human to eat a fetus. This is so disgusting and immoral for me.
