When they figure out a way to convince all the lions, wolves, ducks, bears, eagles, chickens, frogs, raccoons, seals, hedgehogs, sharks, hyenas, spiders, alligators, bats, herons, badgers, chimpanzees, minks, foxes, aardvarks, snakes, pelicans, otters, dolphins, robins, baboons, mosquitoes, tigers, coyotes, and Tasmanian devils to be vegetarians, I’ll consider being one myself. Until then, you’re wasting your breath…
Frankr, I pretty exclusively limit myself to cows, pigs, and chickens - an herbivore and two omnivores. I’ve heard that true carnivores taste pretty nasty (I didn’t care for alligator). At one time or another I’ve uncomplainingly eaten sheep, horse, duck, rabbit, elk, and maybe goat (I can’t recall). I’d meant to try kangaroo when I was in Oz, but didn’t get the opportunity. I’d have a hard time eating dog, but if it came down to it I would and could. In the event of an Andean plane crash or a lifeboat situation, I could probably manage “long pig”, but only if it had died without my assistance.
Of course, your worm is your only emperor for diet. We fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for worms. Your fat king and your lean beggar is but variable service: two dishes to one table, that’s the end.

Isn’t that why they normally remove the heads?

I’m no vegetarian. I like to eat ducks, chickens, wolves, lions, bears, frogs, raccoons, hedgehogs (fried), sharks, hyenas, alligators, herons, bats, badgers, minks, foxes, aardvarks, snakes, pelicans, sea otters, robins, baboons, tigers, coyotes and, of course, tasmanian devils. But not eagles (or seals).
