Dog Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 It is possible to eat better, more interesting and flavoursome meals without eating dead cows and fried potatoes, even for £3.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones I eat I know which field they they were raised in ...and that suites me ! You stick with your soya while I have my meat ... Which reminds me I must get a pheasant or a bunny out of the freezer !. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 You have no imagination or insight - at 3.99 you are eating cheap foreign cow type animals with humps on their backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooperlola Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Those of us who relish eating the flesh of dead animals have come to terms with the fact that what's on our plate once walked, swum or flew. It has always struck me as somewhat daft - nay hypocritical even - to worry about what species it once was - except in taste terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickP Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Why is it that when visit friends or relatives who are vegetarians you only get offered vegetarian food? Yet when they visit your home you offer them vegetarian food while you cook normally for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Because you can do what you want in your own home.You'll always be better fed in a veggie house and have good wholesome fresh food that tastes superb - never had a complaint and the sad carnivores never miss the boring flesh they usually eat through misguided habit.

Chancer Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Xenophobic (the term I couldnt remember) was to describe the person who wrote the following diatribe;[quote user="Dog"]You have no imagination or insight - at 3.99 you are eating cheap foreign cow type animals with humps on their backs.[/quote]I used nationalistic as I didnt want to use the term racist, I still think you are prejudiced against bossus.At £3.99 even someone who you consider does not how how to eat could work out that the meat would be cheap [;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate even to have to remember some of the rubbish I've been given that people dared to call food in veggie households. Tastes of nothing and you're hungry half an hour later. I do have one veggie friend however who is married to a cattle farmer and she can cook a mean meat dish (speciality being stuff her o/h shot that morning) even though, by definition she never actually tastes what she cooks.

cooperlola Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 OK Dog we get the point. No need to say it twice!Carnivores dare not ever complain to veggies about the appaling muck they serve up in the name of food because all they ever get as a result is a lecture, not an improvement in the cuisine.

baypond Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Dear Dog,A dinner party with you would be a very interesting affair. You would hate me for being a carniverous banker, and I would be intrigued/frustrated with your ability to try and impose your doctrines and opinions. We all have different agendas in life, but you speak as though the only opinion that is right is your own. That is a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also dog, in respect to your comment about me "not being your friend" thank goodness for that, as I would hate to have to turn down your invitation to lunch. Must go as I have to make myself a late night snack, a lovely sausage sandwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I don't hate you - I am amazed you can rob at will and abuse the system. I think the only agenda you are interested in is your own - you would eat well and drink well at my table - probably better than you ever have.
