Not to spark debate, but i think you'll find its probably a big part and a good reason to actually be a vegetarian

Whilst I understand people have views strong views about issues such as this, I am sure anyone could pick holes in anyone's lifestyle. Hell, half the technology we use today is based on technology developed to kill other human beings (War has bred technological advances)... do we all throw down the technology in protest? Not many of us, no. its convenient and has led to better things. Whilst I appreciate that technological advancement and the human diet are two very different things, can we really apply different logic to the two situations? I'm not proud I eat "cheap meat" but at the same time, I am a realist. We use chemicals at home and at school that harm the environment, drive vehicles, use the worlds resources. But we do so in moderation as much as we possibly can.

This thread was advertising some nice food at a reasonable price - it wasnt a "look at us we hate animals and eat whatever the hell we like". For goodness sake.

But a fair few that don't eat meat tend to have a holier than thou attitude towards the whole thing.

I've been known to buy cheap cuts of meat, sometimes budget dictates. I'll more than often try to buy good cuts from free-range animals though.

Goldilocks, this is typical of you

It's very rare I find you posting without it being antagonistic. Sad really.

I *DO* care about what I eat, I've highlighted the fact I actually try to buy free range food where I can! I didn't realise M&S did free range ducks at a reasonable price - if I knew this I would have picked one up in town yesterday!

I get annoyed, as do other people, when vegetarians come marching in meat threads on their high horses insinuating everyone who's eating food they deem unacceptable are heartless baskets!!

If I could stoop to telling people like so where to go I would. Actually. If you want to debate about live stock and the well being of animals, go start a thread about it elsewhere!! I had no intentions for this thread to turn out like it has!

People who know me know I'm a good person, I don't care what YOU say about me and my ways as I know you know very little about me! Don't mistaken that for a "I don't care about the well being of livestock"

On a note more appropriate to the purpose this thread was started:

That was a BLOODY fantastic meal

(for all those people who are like "gasp" at this, I had free range egg friend rice

)

I bet it was battery rice that was really depressed though.

Don't forget the free range duck I got was in the reduced items, otherwise it would be about £11-£12.

Pebs · 30-01-2009, 23:05

I hate being told what I should and shouldn't care about. Some things are important to me, other things aren't, and rightly or wrongly where my meat comes from doesnt rank highly on things I give a sh*t about. It would be nice to have the time and energy to feel differently, but there ya go.

That duck was probably a lazy ass one that would only have sat on the sofa watching Jeremy Kyle all day anyway.
