Or possibly because you are not allowed to. If I was one of those rugby players on that flight into the mountain, I'd have had no quarms eating another person to stay alive. that's why I always pack a camping stove with me when I fly - it has to be cooked...I'm not a savage you know!Originally posted by proggy View PostYet we wouldn't eat eek or simonmac and they're borderline vegetables? Possibly because they smell so bad? Funny old world.

Pigs are seen as being quite intelligent and we eat plenty of them. I think much has to do with their taste. If they taste nice like lambs, porks and beefs do then eat 'em. If they don't, like cheese then leave them alone. That's my motto. If they have no fur like fish then I don't eat many of them - unless they live in a tin and are called red Salmon. So if its furry, pull the fur off and take out the gloopy insidy bits and roast it. A few spuds and veg and some animal juice sauce ovver the top. Lovely!Originally posted by proggy View PostIf you any meat then surely there is no difference in eating Guinea Pig as long as it tastes OK. Why should some species be protected over others? The philosophical question is where to do you draw the line, i.e. Monkeys, Dolphins, Cretins, Humans? Is is based on our perceived idea of how intelligent the species is?
