PS: I just killed a wasp that was the size of a small cow.

I felt powerful as I sprayed it with my trusty can of "Raid". Is that cruel?

:S

I don't like those bug sprays because they don't die immediately and they could still sting you.

I ran away next door untill I heard it crash onto the floor.

There was no way I was hitting it with anything, it had a massive baseball bat that was no match for my rolled up magazine!

I can't stand wasps either. It wouldn't surprise me if the evil little critter had a flick-knife in its back pocket as well.

I agree that the solution to mistreatment of animals isn't for us to all stop eating meat en masse. But that's hardly likely to happen, so i sort of figure the best thing for me as an individual is just to avoid all animal products. I feel better for it and whilst there's great stuff like fake bacon around (to bring us gently back to the thread topic), I don't miss them either!

I could prob cope if i used Dom's rule of only eating "chicken, duck and fish". Somehow, I feel that there may be some cheating going on there tho.

You wouldn't, trust me. I am vegan and I never stop eating. There's more stuff out there you could eat than you realise.

You don't know what I eat... if I gave up meat I'd have to survive on Haribo and... er... crisps.

Well ok that was an exaggeration, but I'm a big meat eater - I would be able to eat what DemonHorse said he would live on and also fruit.

So becoming a vegetarian is evolution? So Hitler was more evolved?

THE MASTER RACE EXISTS!

Now now Gaspode, where did I mention a master race? I said that humans' thought processes, resources and skills have evolved through the years. If you mean was Hitler more evolved than a caveman, then I'd have to say yes. He had clothes, a house and a job, even if that job was being an evil dictator.

Why are you so defensive about eating meat? Are you scared that vegetarians will take over the world and force you to eat tofu and lentils for the rest of your life? Or is it a macho thing?

I think it was Hitler that mentioned the whole master race idea.

Its a macho thing. I eat raw meat and tear it apart with my bare hands.*

I like meat and I'm not going to stop eating it any time soon. I do eat less of it than I used to, because I seek out the sustainably produced (not necessarily organic, thats a bit of a red herring sometimes) stuff, which is more expensive. Much nicer though.

And Gaspode's apron is a kind of salmon pink.

My bacon should never be crispy.


Totally agree. Crispy bacon is blech

Quiches (or for men, savoury flans) are great, unless the base is gooey :mrgreen:

I know a girl who all she eats is meat and hardly anything else. She regularly eats pork chop sandwiches and she once put all the rind from some bacon my friend was making at put that in a sandwich as well

I quite like eating quiche, but my housemate said it was the gayest food alive, so I don't eat them anymore incase I get another harsh mocking

I like bacon fat. My mum used to do bacon under the grill then I'd make toast on the grill without changing the foil, made my toast taste like bacon :)

I think it's only gay for men, although I didn't ask him if lesbians liked to chew on a bit of quiche
