Rather than setting up a straw man argument, I see my question about whether or not you would eat an animal such as a parrot or a gorilla, who *can* say "No," as an attempt to find out what your limits are when you decide whom to eat.
I am trying to find out if there is a moral principle on which you are basing your food choices, and what that principle might be. It sounds like you'll eat any animal except humans.
So, here's my next question for all of you: why not eat humans? Under what circumstances, if any, would you murder and eat a newborn or older human? I'd like to find out if your reasons for not eating humans are approximately the same as my reasons for not eating other animals.

Ah, Bisto...we don't have that here in the U.S., that I know of, so I had to look it up on Wikipedia: "Bisto is a well-known brand of traditional British foods in the United Kingdom, most famous for its gravy products. Bisto was added to gravies to give a richer taste and aroma. Invented by Messrs Roberts & Patterson, it was named 'Bisto' because it 'Browns, Seasons and Thickens in One.' "
I think you are probably just used to thinking of pigs as food, Urban, so it would be hard not to look at them and start thinking, "Tasty." I look at oranges that way. I don't want the peel; I want what's inside: sweet, succulent little wedges of oral excitement exploding with deliciousness!
So, how do you react when you see cats or dogs prepared as food? Does it make you hungry or repelled...or both?
