As a vegetarian, I don't really understand why meat eaters go mental at the thought of eating horse, dog or even cat. Then again, those animals probably make up a fairly large percentage of the meat in your sausages, burgers, puddings etc, and ye don't even know it

I was brought up with chicken, turkey, beef and pork. Ive tried other meats and it's not my thing at all. It's like saying vegetarians that don't like every vegetable going is a hypothetical. Sense it does not make.
