I can think of several reasons not to:

1) It is a slippery slope between eating people and looking other people as things to be used.

2) Cannibalism has been used as the ultimate intimidation tactic in the past.

3) Living people often do care what happens to the relatives remains.

4) Disease.

But, in famine, and other emergency situations, I couldn't condemn anyone for practicing it; provided of course that they did kill not their dinner.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
