Kind of an expansion of a post I made under "SGU: The search for Food".
The basic notion was to put a new ending on "Aftermath" where Young brings back Riley's body to Destiny. Then the next day everyone is pleasantly surprised to have meat with their gruel. Rush asks Young where the meat came from and gets a faint grin - roll credits.
After all, they keep saying SGU is supposed to be darker and edgier - wouldn't cannibalism take them closer to that place? It would even add a sense of "mystery" to parallel Rush's having secretly found the bridge - what's Young up to in the Galley???
Plus it would give all those longing glances we constantly have the characters share a whole new dimension. What sort of desire is it? Romantic? Or culinary? Plus it would add a whole new dimension to the Drama the next time they need food, and maybe they don't find any on the planet they come to. Also when they use the stones they need to cover up their new food source so the SGC and NOA don't find out.....
