Most people, including me, don't think about the "process" in which the 
critter involved gets to their dining table.  I do know, having been raised 
on a farm and certainly familiar with Sinclair Lewis and all his followers. 
To say it is disgusting is to strip meaning from language.  It is far, far 
worse than disgusting.

Many so-called "primitive" peoples would thank the animal they killed for 
the gift of food.  I try to do that when I can.  Not that it makes any 
difference to a turkey, chicken, calf or sea bass which died a horrid and 
painful death.

But then Gawd done "ordained" us to take "dominion" over the "beasts", so if 
it is cool with Gawd to kill, maim, torture and mutilate it must be ok. 
Right?  Right?

And gonna talk about the crap that is in these poor animals.  We won't eat 
seafood anymore.  Never ate anything caught in SF Bay.

If there was a way in which American food business could bugger up tofu (pun 
intentional), they would do it.  Ever looked at the extra and utterly (there 
is that pun thing again) unnecessary crap that now goes into yoghurt these 
days?  Great.  It has a "shelf life" of 78 years but tastes like old library 
paste thinned with urine.

Fooey.

Grow your own.

running backwards?
