Cute bunnies

What's the most fitting way of dealing with your deceased pet bunny?

Some might say this.

But only if they have a strong stomach.

Again, the idiocy and illogic of most people stuns me.

I can't figure out where they get the moral outrage from. Maybe they just can't face the fact that meat was once a cute fluffy/feathery animal (or a shiny scaly swimmy one). maybe they don't admit that they'd eat their pets (yes and kill them too) if they were hungry enough. It's clearly daft to get as attached to animals as to people (and most people are too attached to people as it is!). I hasten to add that I most strongly do not believe in any sort of cruelty to any animal, but I'll happily eat ones that were kept and died humanely.

I must admit that before I followed the link, and I thought "what do you do with your dead bunny?" that thoughts of fennel, garlic, onions and rosemary did feature. Whether I'd actually do it, I have no idea. Something is going to eat it.

But then I eat a lot of rabbits, and I do hate waste.

heh

Sooo ... should you be able to eat another person (assuming you weren't responsible for their death) without others' moral outrage?

I mean, we are made out of meat.

Precisely what I meant. I don't see why not. When you are dead you are dead and something is going to eat you.
