>>1586794Having been in this exact scenario no less than three times, I feel that I can comment with a great degree of authority.
Eating ones leg, in the absence of proper seasoning (salt, pepper, lemon grass and a hint of ginger- for Caucasians), is an unpleasant task.
The much better option is to catch and feast on the carrion that invariably comes to eat at the severed limb (crows are definitely first choice, though rats are more delicious than you might suppose).
