With rising mercury levels, species like blue fin tuna disappearing, and the horrendous impact of farmed fish, how can anyone look at me with a straight face and tell me they don't eat meat but then concede that they do eat fish?

I think people feel the consumption of fish is more ethically acceptable than meat. I also think people are more intolerable of meat processing than fish processing, especially when it comes to mass production. The logic is obviously arguable. There's cetainly a lot of misinformation and flawed senses out there. Just for the record, I love meat and fish.
ReplyDeleteRyan, very good point. I think it's even more hilarious when people try to take the moral high ground with fish eating.
ReplyDeleteMichael Ruhlman can respond to that one much more eloquently than I:

Kurt Cobain said it best: "It's ok to eat fish because they don't have any feelings."
ReplyDeleteYeah, fish just aren't cute and as Denis Leary said- we only want to save the cute animals.
