Instincts are not the only aspect of nature and chimpanzees, as a great ape, don't have much for instincts. We're arguing nature, and it's a practice among our closest genetic relative, and since most of the differences between us and them are expression and not the actual genes, we're just denying out primate heritage by repressing our desire for cannibalism.
After all, the brainwashed don't know they've been brainwashed.

Further, cannibalism was common in the South Pacific prior to the arrival of Europeans. It was likely not a cultural aberration due to both how widespread it was and the fact that there was a very good explanation for the behavior - it was the primary source of protein for the natives, whose crops had low protein content and lacked large mammals to hunt or domesticate.
