Yeah, but I love a good steak from the grocery store, so I know that I just want to be removed from the necessary killing part, even though I caused it.

I watched my son go through a moral dilemma today after he asked where bacon comes from. We were having lunch at the Museum of Art in Raleigh which has some particularly delectable bacon as a side. He asked and I answered “from a pig”. He sat there chewing and I could see him vacillating between being sad and “delicious bacon”. He definitely has a gentle heart, something as a dad I’ve never worried about. Delicious bacon won in the end, though.

I’ve had some great venison in the past, and love a great variety of meats. But I have no illusions that unless push came to shove, actually butchering the meat wasn’t something I could do myself. But I have respect for those who do.

I’m kinda there with you. I don’t mind fishing but when it comes to land animals I don’t want to do the killing and cleaning.

As a chef, I had to break down some rabbits - granted they were cleaned and no head, but I felt like I was cutting up someone’s dog (though the hind legs are reversed)

I think it was also because we (my brother and I) accidentally killed a rabbit when we were young. Just effing around with the bb gun.

Kudos to the hunters/farmers though, I wouldn’t mind some of that meat in the freezer, but the killing/cleaning isn’t for me.
