Okay, Renee, I'm sorry!

The lamb is adorable. I'm not allowed to eat it even if I wanted to, which I don't. I just want soybeans and tofu and stuff. The mint jelly thing was just a joke. Kinda. Sorry.

You'd better be, young lady...or I was gonna make it my life long pledge to seek you out and, and....oh I don't know but do something awful to you!!

ROFL

Just don't ever DIS--my little lamb again. Ya hear??

Oh ya know I KNEW I shouldn't allow you to see that animal!  Those darn Greek people, I would have NEVER known what it tasted like had it not been for my DH's family!  Evil people they are!

mutton with mint jelly...mmmmmm er I mean

shame on you Crabby

Crabby, if it makes you feel any better, my first thought was gyros.  LOL

They are cute, but I harken back to one of my favorite sayings, "If we're not supposed to eat animals, why are they all made of meat?"

LOL--Oh man  you guys are some real twisted sisters...ya know that??

;)

I'm a reluctant meat eater, WA, but I still prefer it in a package----at the store and looking nothing like the animal it came from.  I'm pretty sure I ate part of the last lobster tail,  I'll ever eat while on vacation.  I'm giving it up for a permanent form of Lent!

:)

A couple of Valentine's Days ago, we got together with a few other couples and did live lobsters.  Two of the girls named their lobsters, I named mine "delicious."  LOL  I guess I've seen too many hanging deer and elk and cleaned too many fish to think otherwise.

Funny this thread should show up tonight...I just watched parts of a documentary about where our food comes from.  Snips from the slaughter houses and butchering farms just made me absolutely sick.  It wasn't just the guts and gore of the whole thing (which wasn't pleasant, to say the least) but the treatment of the animals raised as our food was despicable. I'm not a big meat eater but I do eat it and watching this show gave me a whole new vision.  I always knew slaughterhouses were not big playhouses for animals but the way the human workers acted around these animals was pathetic.  There were several times I just couldn't look.  I think the documentary was called "Our Daily Bread" and was made from the perspective of the people who work in the various food producing industries.  I wish I had not seen it.
