Would you stop eating meat if you thought they had the same consciousness as people? Causeee I’m in that boat, I thank whichever animal I’m eating before each meal for giving up its life. Meat is an acquired taste for me but I eat it anyway because for me it keeps me healthy.

Both my sons when they were younger, once they made the connection between meat and cute live animals, gave up meat. I had to write a letter to the school , for the school dinners.......

It lasted about a week and I was making bacon sandwiches on thick cut bloomer bread one Saturday....
...and they were both on them.like heat-seeking missiles
That was the end of that!

The textures just awful and idk, I tried some of my friends pretend bacon and I actually spat it out. Some things are alright like standard quorn mince etc, but I usually stick to just bulking it up with lentils and veg etc. I can’t usually stomach pretend meat at all its a bit grim (what I’ve tried anyway)

the plant based mince turns my stomach when i see it in the supermarket...it genuinely looks like worms 🪱 i cant even begin to imagine what it would taste like!
the vegan bacon looks like its made of play doh!

Kids need to be better educated with the social media stuff but it is very difficult when a lot of adults are still getting to grips with it themselves.

It's only about fifteen years old so it's still a relative novelty.

Didn’t put me off my Big Mac

Gross. I can make a better home made burger. 🤌

This opinion is being given almost as much as chicken washing.

Is it as entertaining tho. Nope

 

[Boredofthegram]

I only like the drumsticks in kfc or a zinger tower. The other chicken bits can get in the bin.

It's not like everyone who works on a specific issue in the government has the lived experience

I'd take a guess that the majority of them don't know anything and are heavily supported by civil servants

The role was meant to be to lead a campaign to raise awareness of the law, ensure sg funding is used appropriately etc

The other thing is that there are many charities that focus on period poverty, and I'd imagine that even if it was a woman who got the role she would still be expected to work based on whatever facts the civil servants have and what these charities are saying themselves

And as with everything in politics, even if a woman got the role she would probably be just as useless at doing anything majorly impactful

Some people are so desperate to be right that they either embellish things, or straight up lie about their experiences to make their view sound stronger.

(Not related to the Caroline Flack/Harry Styles stuff above. )

Seeing as I was ROBBED of my fav gif here’s an accurate representation of me reading this thread tonight

I'd think that workplaces would make the decision on how to handle the day of the funeral

I was watching real housewives of Beverly Hills the other day and Adrienne was washing a chicken with hand soap

What’s wrong with that? Chickens sort of have hands too!

 

[Emmelina Ball]

To me they are comparable not identical but comparable but we obviously just disagree on that.

Im glad you had a nice time here! It's great hearing good comments from tourists (some locals can be so harsh particularly about Belfast). The old joke about N.I is if you say you are atheist/Jewish/Muslim, you'll be asked 'Aye but are you a Protestant or Catholic atheist/Jewish/Muslim?'

Not even really an exaggeration. When you get employment here you have to fill out a form to tell them which community background you are from i.e. Catholic or Protestant

I always tick prefer not to say

 

[Prefrontalmedialcortex]

i don’t care 🤌

 

[OutrageouslyScarlet]

Your friend is confused. Happens to the best of us

See i have no issue with the confusion at all i guess it’s all the insta # that set me off

 

[Emmelina Ball]

Is it Something was happy being alive and now it’s not, so I can be alive. It’s literally the least a person can do.

 

[watermelon sugar]

Meat, poultry, potayto, potahto. They probably all need a shower before consumption, which surely reduces their protein content.

i was wondering when chicken washing was gonna get brought up again!!

It is absolutely lush having shops nearby open from 10 to 6 on a Sunday.

Farm Foods does where I am.
