Are cancerous cells unhealthy to eat?

I don’t know, but I do know some tumours are transmissible (even interspecies) so I wouldn’t want to rule it out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clonally_transmissible_cancer

I expect thorough cooking to prevent this sort of thing, but some people do eat raw flesh deliberately.
