Kosher Food: Cannibalism:

Does the Torah forbid cannibalism?

The prohibition of cannibalism is implied by Deut.14:4-5. We can conclude from Gen.9:3 (see Gen.7:21) that cannibalism is also forbidden to Noahides. The Talmud (Chulin 92b) says that non-Jews accepted on themselves not to sell human flesh in meat markets.
