<p>Let's say I'm playing a game of 2HG, and I cast <a href="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=227064" rel="nofollow">Tribute To Hunger</a>, which reads:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Target opponent sacrifices a creature. You gain life equal to that
  creature's toughness.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Do I get to pick which opponent has to sac a creature, or do I cast it at them (being my two opponents) and they pick?</p>

I think this is answered by the existing question [How does metalcraft work in Two-Headed-Giant?](http://boardgames.stackexchange.com/questions/6861/how-does-metalcraft-work-in-two-headed-giant) Summary: your opponents still count as two separate players, so you pick which one to target.

Do I get to pick which opponent has to sac a creature, or do I cast it at them (being my two opponents) and they pick?

Yes you do have to choose.

Since Two-Headed Giant has 2 heads, you have to choose a TARGET head.

And by opponent, you should read "any player not on your team".
