Eugenics and cannibalism combined: Time Machine (1895) by H.G. Wells.
Humanity in the year A.D. 802,701 is divided into the Eloi, a society of elegant, androgynous, and rather childishly naive people and the Morlocks - troglodytes, who breed and eat the Eloi.
Here is a fragment of the 1960 movie directed by George Pal:

Hufu
Hufu is the name of a soy-based product designed to resemble human flesh (in taste and texture): "Healthy Human Flesh Alternative".
According to the producer's website, human flesh has the "taste and texture of beef, except a little sweeter in taste and a little softer in texture. Contrary to popular belief, people do not taste like pork or chicken".
Armin Meiwes (and we can trust this guy in that matter) says human flesh has a taste of pork. By the way, Armin Meiwes has turned vegetarian: "He finds the idea of factory farming as distasteful as his crime was". (source)
Inside of Meiwes' house; photos: Thomas Rabsch (source)
From a documentary The Man who ate his Lover (2004), we learn about Meiwes' literary taste as well:
"Brandes starts to bleed to death in the bath; Meiwes passes the time downstairs by reading a Star Trek novel".
You can watch the full documentary here:

Oh, and I forgot to say, Hufu was a spoof: here.

Macabre returns
I mentioned this American band before, but described it as extreme metal.
Well, I was wrong: indeed they play murder metal. They have a brand new site on myspace, hence we know, that Macabre blends elements of true crime, math rock, nursery rhymes, punk, thrash, folk melodies, death metal, jazz fusion, black metal and more into an energetic, catchy and unmistakable amalgam, refers to Macabre's signature style.
Which in visual terms means more or less this:
Members of Macabre on a “family” picture taken in Sedlec Kutná Hora ossuary in Czech
Republic
On their latest album, there's a song about Armin Meiwes:
The Wustenfeld Man Eater (Armin Meiwes)
In the German internet classifieds
was an ad for a man's demise
then after death he'd eat his prize
a cannibal in modern times
Then to his ad a man replied
agreed to what was advertised
his penis was cut off while still alive
he ate half his own penis before he died

Rwandan Eugenics
Quoted from Modernity Problems: Belge colonizers were into measuring cranial dimensions of Rwandans and making them do calisthenics in the name of evolving the barbarians. Back in the day, it was all about ethnicity. Today, its about mental capacity. And, creepily, forced sterilization. Wednesday, Human Rights Watch urged:
Rwanda to revise a draft law which it said would introduce compulsory HIV testing and require all people with mental disabilities to be sterilized…
The draft legislation would oblige the Rwandan government to “suspend fertility for mentally handicapped people,” the rights group said.
“Systematic forced sterilization had been recognised as a crime against humanity by the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court,” it said.
It is beyond profoundly disturbing when a country subject to socio-political eugenics that led to a genocide drafts legislation for a forced sterilization program.

Three generations of imbeciles are enough
The fourth child of Wioletta Woźna (42) has been taken away from her after social workers declare, that "the house is untidy, the floor is not swept, the dishes dirty, crumbs of bread on the table, the woman is unresourceful, her partner works in the field and doesn't help her much. The court states, that the woman is handicapped, and the father is 63 year old".
The story (in Polish) here;
However, there's something more: after coming back from hospital, the woman discovers, she had been sterilized without her consent during the cesarean. Read the article (in English) here (please note, she was not a surrogate mother, as the article states, but that is not important).
This happened a couple of weeks ago in Poland. It was just one of many cases of women, whose children were taken away from them on grounds of their low IQ. See for instance these two articles:
Mother fights claims she is 'too stupid' to bring up child
Second mother 'too stupid to raise her children'
And the famous case, that started all that: Carrie Buck.
Supreme Court Justice, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. wrote in 1927:
We have seen more than once that the public welfare may call upon the best citizens for their lives. It would be strange if it could not call upon those who already sap the strength of the State for these lesser sacrifices, often not felt to be such by those concerned, in order to prevent our being swamped with incompetence. It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime, or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind. The principle that sustains compulsory vaccination is broad enough to cover cutting the Fallopian tubes. [...] Three generations of imbeciles are enough. (source)
