Vegetables, cereal - even the vegan favorite, tofu. I can't quite...excuse the expression...stomach deep-fried bacon, but DO love bacon on a hamburger or with eggs. So oink, oink. Good one, PPr.

I have no trouble, for example, eating even cute little pigs-- I don't really think of them as anything but bacon on the hoof. On the other hand I don't think I could eat a cat or a dog or even a canary, because I think of these animals in a whole different way-- they are pets not meat-- they have names and are part of the family not part of my food chain. Yet in other parts of the world, dogs and cats are livestock and are butchered and sold as meat and I guess people in those cultures think of them the way I think of beef cattle or pigs. Funny, isn'r it?<br /><br />Thanks for all three comments and for the videos-- loved them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09600365870806305125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8129011669439043954.post-41731531510589140842009-12-12T12:53:17.905-05:002009-12-12T12:53:17.905-05:00ha ha - here's another - this little guy does ...ha ha - here's another - this little guy does dog tricks.

At some point you've got to see who it is you're eating and say, "What gives me the right to eat a sentient being."<br />Yeah, that puts me in the ranks of the "nut jobs". But still...<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jx8sIalBucSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07350532214928944088noreply@blogger.com
