I was going to start a thread on this subject but wondered whether the moderators might close it for 'serving no porpoise'.

As long as the tins are clearly labelled "Tuna friendly" then I'm ok with it !

Tree huggers will tell you that we shouldn't eat them because they are more intelligent than we are.

Well, if they are so clever, how come all they can do is swim around all day with their mouths open, and I'm sitting here using this computer?

This posting had nothing to do with the subject and was put on here to move the tread in a different direction and was also a critisim of a moderators actions in closing another thread.

Most Westerners seem to have an aversion to eating anything that is cuddly, smiley, Disneyesque or a pet.



Why is that?



Around the world, dogs, cats, hamsters, etc are considered a delicacy.



What about frogs legs, locusts, squirrels, ants, snakes etc? Are these OK to eat?



Has watching 'Bambi' put you off eating venison?



If we are so sensitive, how come we love spring lamb or spit roasted suckling pig, or poussin (baby chickens)?



They're all young and cuddly!







OOh! Feeling hungry now!!

I'm currently in Libya where we have roast camel on the camp menu. You certainly get a hump sallowing it. Next time i'm in Mexico must try flipper, Cabbie was flipper battered before you had him?

Flipper was done as a seared steak similar to tuna.
