This is currently translated as follows:

They are all cannibals here, except me, I'm just being eaten.

but I think a better translation would be:

They are all cannibals here except me, and they're just about to eat me.

Could someone please confirm?

Looks like a correct translation from English to me.

@AlanF_US поедать is imperfective https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/...B0%D1%82%D1%8C

Oh, I didn't realize that. I relinked the old sentence and added new ones. When @Smoky said "Looks like a correct translation from English to me", I assumed that was a reference to the second sentence (mine) instead of the original. Thanks!
