If you look up the word "unreconstructed" in the dictionary, there's a picture of Sultan next to it.

At least veggie fish doesn't stink out the break room. Someone has decided to microwave fish today , hope that doesn't mean fish flavored food for tomorrow.

This is why I bring in sandwiches. No risk of microwave cross-contamination. |

What kind of arsehole microwaves fish at work?
This is why I bring in sandwiches. No risk of microwave cross-contamination. Then another time someone had dropped fish on the floor. I bet the cleaners loved getting that smell out. Both times, the smell was horrific. :sick: |

This happened at my work place a few months back. The office is a large open plan floor and so pungent smells travel quickly.

Plus we also eat omnivores (chickens, pigs), so it's not like we're just picking on herbivores, like other animals do. Animals that wouldn't think twice about snacking on one of us if we were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Mine are not much like a dog's or cats, but are an omnivore's teeth, reasonably well adapted for a balanced diet of meat, vegetables, nuts, and fruit - which is pretty much what our closest ape relatives, the chimpanzees, eat. Grains were a late addition to the human diet, but once humans worked out how to harvest, grind, and cook polyploid grass seeds, our teeth work pretty well for eating that too. :nod: |
Re: WTF in the UK again?
I would quite happily eat omnivore, herbivore, carnivore or plant.

We certainly got where we are today because we made the switch from scavenger to hunter though, and eating meat played a big part in that.

Though, do we eat anything that is exclusively carniverous? Perhaps fish, but I can't think of a land-based pure carnivore that we eat. Interesting one, that. Also, we never seem to eat any dish that contains both chicken and egg. At least not in Western cuisine. Isn't that a bit weird? |

Re: WTF in the UK again?
Predators tend to breed more slowly and therefore makes farming them a lot less efficient apart from the fact you would also need to breed the food to feed the carnivores.
Most Western food is food that is easily farmed. One exception maybe whales in certain countries. |

Forgot about alligators. In general, we tend not to eat predators though. Not sure if there really is any reason for that.

I am not sure if that proves or disproves your point. :unsure: |
