2. No. Pigs are incredibly smart animals. They don't deserve to be kept in torture chambers.
Yes, I'm Debbie Downer on bacon. :shrug:

I am in a constant struggle, because I was raised a carnivore. On the other hand, I ask myself how I would feel if I were raised to be eaten. But that's why I put the Morningstar Farms choice...I have no problem whatsoever eating textured vegetable protein designed to approximate the taste of an animal.

15. I say "No" - if he did it would get all commercial with Hallmark cards
and crap like that, and the true meaning of bacon would be lost...

16. I hadn't thought about that...and you know, our grandkids would suffer most of all.
We'd have to sit and look into those wide, youthful, sparkling eyes as they welled up with tears upon hearing Grammy and Grampy talk about the good old days of bacon, days that they would never experience because of endless reruns of the Peanuts Bacon Special ("It's Extra Crispy, Charlie Brown") and all kinds of other cash-ins Like Britney Spears' "Ooops I Did It Again (Maple Cured Thick Sliced Dance Mix."

It sounded like a good idea at the time, but now I see the dark side.

:rofl:

:toast:

17. You're like a Kinkade with words - those little kiddos brought a tear to my eye too
:)

(And I mean "Kinkade" in the best possible sense. There is no such thing? OK, let's say a Rockwell of words...)
