Humans are carbon-based life forms. Soda contains carbon. You're a cannibal.

If the metal debris was once parts of other golems, then yes.
Otherwise, no. You possibly eat meat and certainly eat vegetables or other organic material - are you a cannibal?

It's a different kind of meat, though. These pieces are probably the same material as Gaunt.

But its origin is not the same.
There is a big biological similarity between the cells of humans and those of [s]porcs[/s] pigs, but humans who eat pig meat aren't cannibals, are they?

Both carbon and iron are elements, you know. My comparison is as accurate as you'll get.

However, that's still not saying whether or not Gaunt is a cannibal.
Whether humans are or not is irrelevant.

If by your definition, humans are not, then neither is Gaunt.

I think more if Gaunt is considered cannibal and the law by which he is considered is universal, humans are also cannibals.
Except for those incomprehensible people who do not drink carbonated stuff.

Somehow this is unstulpy time... a Chaotic Stupid comic relief (is there "comic relief" in such a setting?) guy is not a person for social interaction...
Excuse me if I don't post in the PnP itself right now, but it's hard to roleplay for me.
Don't worry, I haven't lost interest at all, but there is nothing I can do to develop his character, at least nothing comes to my mind.
