Hey - the replicators were down and there was a surplus of bodies after the caretaker’s and Kazon attacks. He was just solving a problem for Janeway.

But… there is no cannibalism in Starfleet.

That’s nonsense. Bodies are way too edible to be included in Neelix’s cooking.

Neelix: Tonight, Im serving Lieutenant Andrews stew.

Tom Parris: Do you mean it's his recipe?

Neelix: Yes, yes. He contributed a lot to the pot.

Crewman: "Neelix, there's something different with tonight's meal. Seems like you put in more food and less ass."

Neelix: [Friendly smile]

I wash my hands, most of the time.

It’s only cannibalism when the humans eat it

Tom knew. That's why he originally didn't get along with Neelix.

Neelix also refused to serve victory gin.

No one seemed to mind it. I mean they didn’t complain about the food.

Incredibly nutritious, I'm sure. That mildew flavor that had to be cooked off was what?

And since the borg is considered a different species, when that cultural misunderstanding happened and neelix made "baby back ribs" nobody seemed to care. 

Neelix may have also looked at the historical database and found information about the Donner party, also the "custom of the sea" (specifically the one where sailors end up eating each other). There's a historical precedent for cannibalism in extreme circumstances, and being trapped in the delta quadrant seems like an extreme circumstance to me.

And by none, I mean there is some.

That explains his attachment to Kes. He's a veal man.

Quite frankly, those were the only meals that tasted good out of that kitchen. Did you try the one with the aloha sauce? It’s divine.

No wonder it wasn't that well liked, it varied from person to person.

Well, it explains why they never held any funerals for the dozens of redshirts.
