Taking away funds? Is all research in the US government funded?
Taking the meat out of meat .. What does that even mean? It's still meat, just without everything else that traditionally comes with it, such as a capacity for experiencing pain and the killing needed to acquire the end product.
As for it not being economically viable, how do you know that?

You aren't kidding about the breastfeeding, Tore? Because human milk tastes *very* good. I tasted mine. It is sweet. Sweeter than cow's milk. Those breastfeeding babies, toddlers, and preschoolers are getting good stuff!
I remember seeing a TV show about people eating human placenta pate. The mother saved it after giving birth, and then they cooked it and turned it into pate for their friends to willingly eat at some afterbirth party (ha ha!). They said the human placenta pate tasted pretty good! 
Yes, logic can't always stop emotions. I feel distaste when I see spiders...disturbed by the way they look, the way they walk (although I like all their little eyes). I try to hide or fight my distaste for spiders. I pick them up and take them outside. I sometimes let them walk on me. I have no desire to eat spiders. Some people eat tarantulas. I hope I'm never in a position where I have to eat a tarantula to survive!
So, tarantula or human placenta, Tore? Which would you prefer fried up? |
Ugh, there are a few things about your post that creeps me out a little. That placenta story is gross!
I would definetly rather eat the spider than the patè. I would prefer it to anyone's breast milk as well!
