One man's roadkill is another man's fillet steak.
Can't believe how many people still turn their noses up at kanga but will happilly eat piggies etc. Roo fillet can be deluxe if cooked right.
Prob on topic?!?
No meat for me today...
I'm not religious, but it's the way I was brought up, and I wouldn't want to upset my old mum.![]()
Also, dig deep for the GFA (you know, the guys with the fire-trucks and rattling tins...)![]()
Each to his own,eh?
I,m with you KA43, nothing like a good ole ozzie barbie, after a big day.
Think what would happen to the population of cows, pigs,sheep, etc if we stopped eating them !!!!!!!!!Would they start eating us?
Well, according to the other bit to the argument where cows, sheep and pigs wouldn't be alive in the arrangement we now know them in if they weren't cultivated for thousands of years as food animals, there would be no cows, sheep or pigs if we weren't eating them.
Anyway, another memory from the slaughter floor popped up the other day I thought I'd share. Imagine it for a minute, blood all over the walls, blood pit drain blocked again and almost overflowing into your gumboots. You have your arm up past the elbow in hot, smelly, clotting blood to unblock it. The equipment is loud, the fans cooling the guys cutting hocks, the air knife for hides, the pressure cleaner over in the corner, the bolt gun going off. Whopper on the circular saw cutting horns off. Then, over the top of all the industry, a choir of male voices singing Christmas carols. It was Christmas and we were all singing while we slaughtered. It was a bit surreal. ![]()
Sometimes one man's offal can be another culture's delicacy. Lamb Fries, chicken liver pate, hock soup, sheep eyes, bulls "balls", ox tail etc etc. Waste not want not. Funny how the more "cultured" people believe they are - the more limiting the foods they will eat irrespective of taste or nutritional value (they need to HTFU in a major way and stop winging about what others eat).
is it more moral for my cat to kill it's own meat or eat the tinned stuff?
Should we feel sorry for the seal as it gets tossed around by sharks and whales, or the penguins the seals eat, or the fish the penguins eat?
(anyone got that footage of the killer whales toying with their prey before they eat it, mother nature ain't humane)
Should we kill food for wild lions and tigers so it's more humane or should we label all meat eaters evil and just kill the lions and tigers?
We should should kill crocodiles....yes..... no question really.
WTF am i on about really?
Was your brain stored in your stumpy digit? ![]()
Yep - nature is a cruel lady for sure.
How about all those 80s style dolphin tattoos? Ever seen footage of a pack of male dolphins attempting to 'mate' with a lone female? Now that is certainly not new-age, warm n fuzzy..
Flipper burger anyone?
