#1 Posted: 4/29/2012 4:23:42 PM Just wondering why people, given all we know, would choose to eat dead animals. I dont wanna preach here, but if saw footage of a slaughterhouse you'd prolly change your mind. (of course some bozo's are gonna disagree and act childish about it)

#9 Posted: 5/1/2012 1:29:13 AM It's fast and for the most part painless.
Visit Afriica sometime. It's 2 guys with a long rusty butter knife exchanging a decent swing.
I've tried to eat an animal live but it's just not the same. We both suffer through the entire ordeal. |

Truth. In Africa you will see a herd of 400 Impala standing there like props.. Delicacy.
Sit there in that jeep and by day's end I challenge any human to not crave medium rare Impala that only the cheetah's an leopards get to feast on. 
Just one.

Hmmm, many reasons.
- treatment of animals - the way they mass produce the meat, its VERY unsanitary IMO - just plain never really liked it to begin with - influence from friends/family who did, and they swear by it
