A Meat Question For Those of You Meat Eaters!
Okay, I personally don't eat meat!.
But for those of you who eat meat, why is one animal so disgusting to eat more then another!?
I mean, you don't want to eat a dog or a cat, but you'll be okay with eating a cow or a chicken!? They're animals too, it doesn't mean that one is more special then another!.
Just opinions please!. And don't go talking trash about me because I'm a vegan, saying that I'm one for a fad, I was vegan way before this whole go green thing came out!. x] Oh, and I'm NOT judging you for eating meat, OR trying to change you from eating meat into not!. I just want an honest answer to that question, please!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

A lot of it likely is due to the animal's other functions (if any) wrt the person!. Dogs and cats are companions, so most people wouldn't consider eating one!. Horses are working and riding animals, so they tend to be off the menu as well!. (Of course, a lot of this is society-dependent!.!.!.in Asia, dog and horsemeat are frequent staples!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com
I guess I'd like to ask a follow up!. What makes eating vegetables any better than animals!? Do they deserve to live any less than animals!? A recent university study shows plants can feel and attempt to avoid pain!. I guess unless we are to eat only man-made items like plastic, I prefer to go au natural!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Of course one animal is more special than ('than,' not 'then') another! My cat has more sentimental value than a random pig!. Pigs, cows, chickens, etc aren't my pets!.

i eat meat!.
but i do think about ur question as well!.
uhm!. i think it's the way we're raised!. it's part of our culture to eat certain meat!.!.!.and that certain animals like chicken or cows are to be eaten!.!.it's just the way things are!.
i wouldn't eat any animal meat that i've seen when it was still alive!.
it's survival as well, i guess!. you just eat, and don't think too much!.!.!.
btw, plants do cry when they're cut as well!. they're still forms of life!.!.!. so, i think, to each his own survival!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes,it's natural in our culture!. We are used to things this way,and they work, so why change them!. Not just that, we also as a society are a lot more shall I say prone to choose the more attractive of two choices,hence the kitten over the cow!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Cows, chickens, and pigs are raised to be eaten!. Dogs and cats are not!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Because, in my culture we don't eat pets!Www@FoodAQ@Com
ye i agree with all the aboveWww@FoodAQ@Com

as a vegan your choice has been made
IF you wish to know go to a fine restaurant and order!.!.

You can't picture Jesus Christ sitting down to roast and and all the fine sides !?!?
Sorry,, you may have been mislead into vegan!.
Experiment we will not hold you as sinning
I can tell you the sea foods are so sweet meat !.!.>>
I am done MY opinion does not matter

that's a really interesting question!.!.!.never really thought of that!.!.!.!.!.i think its cuz most people, specially ones with pets, think of pets as like family members, and people grow up with their pets and get to know them and everything, so when people hear about some cultures that do eat animals like dogs they think its disgusting cuz they cant imagine eating their pets!.!.!.!.and cows and chickens and pigs arent kept as pets so people dont care as much about them and they're ok with killing and eating them!.
I bet if chickens were as smart as dogs and were also used as pets people wont eat them as much!.!.!.!.i mean think about it, what if a little kid had a pet chicken then all a sudden the chicken disappears and the kid finds out his dinner is chicken!.!.!.!.
To be honest i also eat meat!.!.!.!.but if i had a pet cow or something there's no way i would let anybody eat him/her!. Though i do feel kinda bad when i see a farm loaded with animals knowing some of those animals will probably be killed and eaten someday!.!.!.I know its wrong but i cant imagine turning into a vegetarian!.!.!.i just dont like vegetables as much!.!.!.!.i hope you dont hate me cuz i eat meat :(Www@FoodAQ@Com
