Let's go through this step by step. Honestly, I think I might pass out.
If someone put lamb, fish, and some fruit or vegetables in front of you—but you could only pick one to eat—what would it be?
Imagine you find yourself out in the wilderness, far away from civilization, carrying nothing but, well, a knife and some matches 👎. To your right, there's the ocean filled with fish. Straight ahead is an orchard, and off to your left, there's a Cow or maybe a little lamb (Jesus, oh boy!). You can eat any of them or cook/grill them, but you have to harvest, catch, or kill it yourself. What's your choice?
I suppose people who have real "guts" and aren't afraid to kill a Milka or whatever they get their meat from can rightfully justify eating parts of mammals. (🙂 )
As for everyone else, like me, no. It just doesn't sit right with my character. When you're out in nature all alone, there isn't a butcher there to slice up the Milka into unrecognizable pieces for you. I just can't bring myself to carve up a Milka. Okay, I could, but not deeply. Okay, fine, I could even do it deeply, but I just can't kill it. 😳 ...who am I kidding, I've barely ever even seen a Cow in person. 😢
I think I could probably kill a fish without much trouble; I might shed a tear or two over those glassy eyes, but that's about it. 😢 I'll go with the fish. I love fish. And the fish are afraid of me.
