Your horror movie reality of the month.

Thinking too hard about the critters one eats converts folks to vegetarianism, so if you want to remain an omnivore, for heaven's sake don't click the link about the deep-fried rabbit ears.

Now I'm gonna have nightmares.

I actually found that really intereting, and I think some of the pictures are beautiful.

It's my opinion that we *should* be bothered by the meat we eat. It makes us more responsible consumers.

*sigh* You sound like you're from the city. The chicken fried bacon was much worse.

Perhaps, but I didn't grow up watching cartoons in which a piece of bacon tricked Elmer Fudd time and again.

CARTOONS? Ha, you had it lucky! For me, the best I could do of a saturday morning was making up comedy routines starring Mr. Bacon McRancidMold, with the chewed off foot of a leghold-caught muskrat as a straight man!

So that's probably why the deep fried bacon gets to me. O, Mr. McRancidMold, whatever happened to you?

I don't disagree with the idea that we should think more about the food we're putting in our bodies.

At the same time, I don't necessarily think that in order to eat a burger I should be prepared to personally butcher the cow.

[snowy-owlet.livejournal.com]

Sure: that would be extreme. I'm thankful that I don't have to butcher my own food. But I'm very firm with myself to never forget where it comes from.

I mean, even when we eat vegetables, something dies.

You know something odd?

My parents have a cat who hunts rabbits, and the ears are the only bit he doesn't eat.

Obviously the cat hasn't worked out how to deep fry them, and coat them in garlic & herbs.

I am not going to click on your link. I'm not gonna. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!!!

Rabbit ears? Hammer down!

I agree. We should know where our food comes from and be respectful of the animals that provide it. I say that having spent parts of my youth on a friend's farm (including barbecuing and chowing down on parts of a cow -a cow I knew - after watching the butchering of said cow - not the killing part, just the butchering part.)

I never feel bad about eating chickens, because I've met chickens.

That said, I have no urge to view this link. I don't eat wabbit.
