This thought appears when a colonist eats anything containing human meat in any amount, this thought gives -15 to happiness, this effect stacks, still unknown exactly how much, the effect have a cooldown of 2.0 days, and a colonist eats about 1 time a day, therefore I draw the conclusion that the effect only stacks twice, this obviously needs confirmation.
