Many people assume that aliens on other planets are probably more advanced than us - more sophisticated. So what would these highly civilised aliens think of us when they see what we eat.
As well as occasionally eating each other, we eat a vast selection of the other life on this planet.
We have no qualms about killing these creatures. Hundreds of thousands of birds, fish and animals are killed every day as part of our meat-food supply.
I think aliens might ask why we eat flesh when we don't really have to. And why do we eat so much? We could easily live on fruit, vegetables, dairy products and other food types.
I'm not a total vegetarian but it still amazes me how we earth inhabitants eat each other, usually in the dead state and sometimes while still alive.
I think aliens might be quite disgusted with us and could regard us as savages. The fact that we haven't stopped killing one another in wars and disturbances for thousands of years is another minus. Killing seems to be a human trait. Then there's how many of us look - so large, so overweight and so blobby.
Of course, this is assuming that aliens are vegetarian or have a more civilised system of nutrition. It might be that they are the same as us, or worse. They might even want to eat us.
But just in case they are highly developed, maybe it's time we reviewed our eating habits, cut down on the meat scene and moved more towards vegetables and fruit. Then one day when our out of space visitors arrive in their huge spacecraft they will not completely regard us as cannibals.
On the other hand they may be vegetable life forms themselves and will be totally appalled that we are vegetable eaters. Their word for cannibal would be vegetarian.
It gets so confusing.
One thing's for sure though. If you ever meet an alien the first thing to do is check out what they eat. In the meantime you can lose weight and slim down. After all, we don't want the aliens to go back and tell everybody out there this is the planet of the blobs.
