Did the Eldar eat Dwarves?

It's something bestial, sub rather than superhuman, not consistent with his apparent view of the Eldar. While it might have been as unknowing as Túrin's incest, something tells me that this idea is one so serious that he would have done something with it had it occurred to him.

I agree. It doesn't seem like something he'd have just forgotten to mention.
