No one ever thinks about the shocking abrubt end to the life of the animal that they are eating when they sit down to eat meat. I am one of those.

oh, this reminds me of a story from my
travels of a pig's head that ended an
argument between a fruitarian and a butcher.
Must remember to write that down.

Next time take a trip to the abattoir... now
that's a fun experience. Growing up on a
farm and killing our own meat I guess I got
used to this fact a long time ago... My
personal philosophy though, is that if you
can't bring yourself to kill something, or to
bear the fact that an animal died for your
meal...then perhaps you shouldn't be eating
meat in the first place... Nothing shits me
more than a person who gets all grossed out
at a dead animal and then starts chomping
into a steak...

vegetarian.

thanks for posting the morbid--yet totally
natural--image and your accompanying text.
insightful, and so on the money. we forget so
easily about our food sources and what it
takes to provide these delicacies to the
consumer. especially in a city like nyc,
there is such great removal from life, death,
etc. as such. not a 'pretty picture' but
poetic nonetheless.

even Gordon Ramsey couldn't bear to watch
pigs being slaughtered.pig heads for sale in Box Hill Central, albeit more
cleaned-up than this :)
