Yesterday I was in line at the grocery and the woman in front of me, the cashier and the bagging woman were talking about bacon. I wasn't really paying attention since I was far to busy reading the covers of the gossip magazines.  I really didn't even know what they were talking about except for hearing brands of meat. I was wearing a tee that has a picture of a pig and says "I don't have any spare ribs". The cashier said- we like your shirt and I said oh thank you. She said, we feel guilty because we're talking about bacon. So I said well veggie bacon is really good but don't feel too bad- I'm buying chicken and steak for my husband right now. It turns out both the cashier and the bagger used to have pet pigs. They were practically fighting over who was going to tell me the next pet pig story and how sweet they were and how smart they are and all of the amazing things that they did. I just listened and said how cute but I was thinking- OMG then how do y'all EAT them??!!  Even when I ate meat I couldn't have eaten an animal if I had had one as a pet. People can be funny. |
OMG Nikki, I have ALWAYS wanted to own a mini pot-bellied pig!! I love piggies! They are such intelligent little creatures and I just adore them! The first meat I ever gave up was bacon. I also love rabbits and one day want to own a Netherland Dwarf bunny -- so needless to say, I've never eaten rabbit and absolutely REFUSE to cook it. Hubby doesn't eat rabbit but my father-in-law does and I will NOT cook it. He has asked me to make it for dinner a few times and I said HECK NO!! There will be no dead bunnies in my house! I don't think I would ever be able to sleep again if I ever did that! Bunnies are such gentle and TIMID creatures. They can die from a heart attack if they are scared by a hawk or other pretadors. I just love them to pieces.
