Hannibal Lecter or one of Man Friday's captors (8)

I believe the answer is:

cannibal

(Other definitions for cannibal that I've seen before include "Anthropophagite" , "Person eating human flesh" , "Animal that eats it own kid (8)." , "Person who has someone for dinner?" , "One eats human flesh" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
