What is good to eat?
Should we be meat-eaters?

Do crustaceans feel pain?
What are we saying about ourselves?

@TheCobbler,
The sea was angry today my friend--GC
We had one thread here by devote vegens, quite smart ones, and I think many of us have flirted with it.
Me, I'm a lifelong meat eater mixed with consideration for the animals. I grew up not liking vegetables very much (turns out they were overcooked by a lot, but I'm an oldie and that was the way back then); never heard of a salad until I was about twenty. Now I like or love a lot of vegetables and they are my primary food, except for my own homemade bread (except that I cheat and buy it once in a while. Mine is better.)
I need protein and meat/fish is a way to get it. Plus, I like them. I buy one biggish meat package a month (pork shoulder? 10 chicken thighs?). The fish selection at my old favorite store was relatively poor, but I do make fishcakes with canned mackeral or salmon. With those packages, I can make a pork shoulder (carne adovado?) last a month, similar with chicken. Similar with fish cakes, which take a little work; I make them differently every time.
Sorry if you or anyone doesn't like this. I cook 98% of my meals and get fairly weary if I don't stock up things to thaw from my small freezer.
I understand the problems meatgrowing brings to the land. But so do a number of crops.
_ I looked for that couple's thread and no luck, but there are pages of threads about being vegan.

@Lordyaswas,
Sounds like Spike had a lotta smarts.
I like eating dead animals, just like my ancestors. If necessary, i'd kill 'em myself--i've done it before. The only down-side is weepy women coming around looking for their toddlers.
@Setanta,
You like killing animals?
I like eating muscles and snales... (scallops)
Shaved pepper steak and cheese?

Personally, I prefer paying other people to do the killing for me.
I do seem to enjoy killing plants.
@Glennn,
Yes, seeing those cute little eyes look up as the cold metal tube shoots metal through the brain stem isn't something I would enjoy.
Just give me the ground beef, wrapped in plastic, in the refrigerator section of my local supermarket.
@maxdancona,

Why not? It's completely natural to do so.
@Glennn,
Maybe that turns you on, Glennn. But, it just isn't my thing. To each her own.
