[OT] I dare you all...
Call me a troll but I am crying my heart out right now in sorrow. I had
heard and read some facts about mass production of meat but the knowledge was purely conceptual until today. Before you post any recipe, I dare you to watch this to the end: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...69508770398194 (narrated by Alec Baldwin, and one of today's "top movers and shakers" on google video) Sorry. I am so very sorry. |

It ain't no different from it happening on a farm that quite a few of us were raised on but in larger scale. |

I am so very sorry. Watched it - PETA propaganda is all I can say. I disregard anything that mentions them (and they were mentioned), as well as anything Alec Baldwin does - and why is he still in this country?? Didn't he, Susan Sarandon & Tim Robbins all state that they would leave if GW were elected - the first time? It's been 7 years now, and they're still here (and so is GW). Time for them to own up to their "promises" LOL And talk about misleading info - the comment on the side states that humans didn't "eat meat until recently"..... um, didn't they find animal bones that had obviously been gnawed on by 'humans'* when they excavated ancient remains? I'm talking way before the Egyptians, Romans & Greeks took over... not thousands, but millions of years old. They know that it was the 'human' that gnawed on it as when they found the human remains, the jaw bone & teeth matched the marks on the critter bone. Homo Sapiens evolved (or were intelligently designed - whatever your belief) as *OMNI*vores - eating both meat and plant for sustenance. The proof is not in the digestive tract - which is inefficient in all animals - else we wouldn't poo - (why do cows have 4 stomachs? So they can grind their food better. Why do you think dried dung (herbivore poo) burns in a fire? Because there is so much un-processed vegetation in it.)... The proof is in the *TEETH*. We have both sharp cutting teeth (canines & incisors) for cutting meat, and grinders (molars & bicuspids) for grinding vegetation into a pulp. And another screw up - "chimps" are not obligate vegetarians/vegans/herbivores. If they have a chance to catch a frog, lizard, bird or some other animal - they will, and eat it. Their teeth are like ours - but worse - each 'chimp' is about as strong as 4 humans - so 4X the biting power. * I use the term 'human' loosely here - meaning all versions, Neanderthal, homo erectus, homo sapien, or whatever the others are. -- Earth first! Make Mars our bitch! - Dale Gribble "King of the Hill" |

I am so very sorry. I'm a meat eater and I don't apologize for it. Yes I know where my hamburgers and chicken nuggets come from. I've even toured slaughterhouses. I came away from that experience needing a shower to get the smell off, but hungry for a good steak. Jo |

Yeah - 4/32 are canines (for tearing), 8/32 are incisors (for slicing) and 20/32 are for grinding. I'm not the one who made those comments, and I do eat a small amount of animal flesh - mostly fish, and occasionally, when I can find it, some poultry that was humanely raised and killed - about in proportion to my dental design, which would be about 1/16th of my diet. Anyway after seeing this video, I'm thinking very hard about searching for a brand of cat food that does not use meat from the tortured creatures seen in that video. |
