Leviticus 7:27

25 If anyone eats the fat of an animal from which an offering made by fire may be presented to the LORD, the one who eats it must be cut off from his people.

26 You must not eat the blood of any bird or animal in any of your dwellings.

If anyone eats blood, that person must be cut off from his people.’”

28 Then the LORD said to Moses,

29 “Speak to the Israelites and say, ‘Anyone who presents a peace offering to the LORD must bring it as his sacrifice to the LORD.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
