Usually in this situation, nothing is ever stated without some reason.

If Hide is pronounced "Missing" and not dead... then there is going to be a complex situation with why hide is missing.

Hide could very well die.... but I doubt it would be at the hands of kaneki. Considering that Hide has such a deep rooted connection to kaneki. Even if Hide were to ask Kaneki to eat him in some twisted turn of event.... I believe Kaneki would stil vehemently refuse no matter how hungry.

Hide's existence serves as a great catalyst to Kaneki's inner turmoil between his human and ghoul nature. What purpose would it serve to have him die at his own hands?

Other than to throw kaneki into complet madness....though we've already seen him snap after reaching starvation and also after being violently tortured. SO having him snap again...would seem typical or redudant IMO.

Yet at the same time... having hide die at the hands of kaneki's enemy, would be a possiblity. I would accept this more than kaneki eating him.
