Kill it, Cook it, Eat it (RTE2)

RUCKING FETARD

Jaysus!! Is anyone watching this?

They're after killing 3 cows, cut off their heads:eek:, skinned them, cut out the guts, cut them in half and they're gonna cook it now.

Showed the whole lot.

stevek93

Yes! :eek: the channel changed as quick as i put it on lol

dyer

i'd imagine there'd be a lot more vegetarians in the world if they had to do that themselves

Lovely there back next week with a lamb

I was shocked by it I have to admit, would it stop me eating meat? certainly not.

What struck me most was the gush of blood when they cut the throats and imagining the smell.

Positives - the almost surgical precision at which they work, and the attention to cleanliness, actually reassured me.

Program is about 5 years old I htink, shocked me the 1st time around and did again this time, it's not nice in the least to see but seeing the level of care taken and the work that goes into the process was in a poor choice of words ... amazing

Sounds interesting I must try and catch it next week.

From 2008 to 2010 Julia Bradbury presented three series of Kill It, Cook It, Eat It on BBC Three. The first series concentrated on commercially farmed animals such as chickens, pigs, sheep and cattle. The second series featured hunted wild game such as ducks, rabbits, deer and grouse. The third series focused on fast food; a group of six people went through the process of killing, cooking and eating animals.

Smell has to be bad, guys with the knife were nearly enveloped in "dead body steam" at one point, I don't think I blinked for 20mins looking at it!

Serious precision, from bullet to hanging in less than 20mins.

Did ya hear the Farmer "I don't think people needed to see it":rolleyes:, afraid that it might actually turn a few people to veggies.

Same name but that doesn't look like it, I can't actually find a clip or review of it at all, it's like a studio setting with windows for people to look out at it going on, makes it even better as some were crying and a few of the lads couldn't look at it. That one you linked to seems to a few teenagers go off to live on a farm and get to know the animals and then see the process.

Similar but dif.

Was it not this

^^^Oh Yea, that clip is it, but this is a clip of the Julia B series

Must be two shows with same name??

Edit:Or she only presents some of the series?

Was in the pub last night and the big screen and projector was on, probably for the Olympic coverage. Then this came on. Would not bother me at all , but there were a few girls (and lads) that got quiet a shock. It was turned off fairly swiftly !

Beats getting their throats cut while still awake. Its rather tame stuff compared to what you would see in country towns all over Ireland 50 years ago.

grey_so_what

Good show..unbiased. Im an organic farmer (beef) we dont like to see our cattle going to slaughter but without the business there would be no farming or cattle trade. If everyone was vegetarian we would have to cull 90% of the cattle in the world..humane methods do not work if there is no profit at the end.

jimmyw

This programmes aim is designed to turn more people into vegetarians.That would be good for the farmers and related jobs in the industry:rolleyes:.

I didnt see it last week, this is the first time I have seen it.

True last week they had a chainsaw after a cow! :eek: But after watching it last week and this week it doesn't one bit turn me of eating meat products.

potatohead90

Watching it and its ****ing ridicules. VERY little meat is actually killed that way and I would know because my father was a butcher and farmer.

Im very different then my father, I'm a vegetarian and PROUD. I would NEVER preach my belief's though because i know the difference between a vegan and a butcher. and the difference is how they were brought up and how open their mind is.
When my gf went vegetarian and she had all these new meat free products and she was like try it I was like no its ok because for some reason everyone has this ridiculous idea in there head that it must taste like ****,
anyways one day i tried the quorn chicken pieces and they tasted the exact same. so she asked me to try it for one month thats all and I havn't looked back since.

any ways back to my point, don't actually believe this is how the animals are slaughtered. anyone actually interested in how there killed watch this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19eBAfUFK3E&feature=related
and before the bitching starts im not trying to make anyway stop eating meat but if you want to know how its done watch it

Peace

Flicked through it as it's quite long, landed on tail docking, ear clipping on the squealing pigs, the "kosher slaughter" at 23.50 that's how I'd picture an abbatoir in my head, dark and dirty and then the guy beating the pig to death with...I don't know, a hammer....don't think I'll watch the rest, some people in it were having fun:eek::(

You can't base what happens now on what happened in the past.

Times change and ways of doing things change.

Sorry but I don't know what you mean by that.

that video is old and i know its more on the extreme side of slaughtering but, 90% of what you see in it happens every day around the world.

I find it hard to have a proper discussion with people about it, you can come off as preachy and I also find it a very touchy subject to a lot of people. And a lot of people go on the defence to justify something they know is wrong.

We have evolved so much over the last 200 years that slaughtering animals for food and clothing is no longer needed to stay alive.

Like I said in the last post its all about how you grow up,how you see the world,how you were thought by your father and mother and how open your mind is to new things.

If you wont stop eating meat for the plain reason that your killing, then I beg to anyone who reads this to consider it even for just 1 month for your HEALTH!

I'm studying to be a doctor, I'm going in to my final year before medical school and I just recently did a paper on a 20 year studycalled the China Cornell Oxford Project and research of American physician Caldwell Esselstyn and professor of nutritional biochemistry T. Colin Campbell. A documentary was made called "forks over knives" http://www.1channel.ch/watch-2581871-Forks-Over-Knives

VERY INTERESTING CONCLUSIONS, ESPECIALLY TO ANY ONE WHO SUFFERS FROM HEART DISEASE OR DIABETES IN THEIR FAMILY.

Yes because that makes total sense.....
Your misunderstanding me, my father thought me respect, my mother thought me to have an open mind to things and to never be afraid of being different.

dmullins3

does anyone have a link for that episode? only one ive missed and can't find it anywhere online

loveisdivine

Sorry I dont have a link. But I do want to leave a comment.

The programme makes it all look a lot more humane than it really is. I know 2 people that have worked in abbatoirs and some of the stories they have told still keep me awake at night.

Sure you only have to look at the Cheale Meats incident from the UK last year (pigs being punched, beaten with cricket bats, tortured) to see that its an industry full of inhumane actions.
