Then I am to assume that there are no stray dogs or cats in your neighborhood since they just end up on your grill, right? I’m sure they taste just as good, but that don’t make it right!
Well, it’s just because they taste so darn good!
Am I missing something? This “rescue” had its biggest fundraiser with an “old fashioned barbeque.” If this “sanctuary” rescues pigs and chickens and such, then where did the pork ribs and bbq chicken come from that they served? Reminds me of the old joke about the three legged pig that was “too good to eat all at once.” As a Vegetarian for over 20 years because I think it is wrong to harm animals, I just can’t understand why you would pay to save one animal, and then turn around and pay to eat another. Can someone explain that to me?
Does anyone know who was behind the “Save the Bonniedale Farm” benefit? I am with a few local rescue groups that are also trying to help and I just wanted to touch base. thanks!
