It's sad there are a lot of thumbs down to the thoughtful and caring remarks. The only conclusion is that there are a lot who play this game who would be cruel to an animal for their own gratification.

Same with shark fin soup. Fins are cut off and the sharks are left to die very slowly at the bottom of the ocean

I would NEVER eat such a thing. Especially knowing what they do to these poor animals

If everyone that eats it gets sick from it I wouldn't feel the least bit sorry for them.

I read about this and proud to say that I've never tried it and never will for that very reason. Anything that has to do with animal cruelty is against my nature, I oppose it in every way.

Player #19942154, I have boycotted veal as soon as I found out how it's produced, as well. There's no limit to human cruelty

You can have it from healthy birds, it won’t be as creamy and buttery (which is what chefs/foodies are after) but it can still be a great way to use every part of the animal

Yes, it's cruel. But, what about cutting a chicken's feet and beak off, then force feeding it corn and steroids for a couple months to make chicken fingers. Let's not be hypocritical about what's cruel. Ever toured a feed lot or meat packing plant? It's cruel or it's tasty, which is more important to ya?

cambridge gel, funny you say this. the one and ONLY time I've ever gone hunting in my life, I had a beautiful 8 point buck lined up in my sights then he turned and looked me in the eye, I couldn't pull the trigger. Bambi was the first thing I thought about.😢

I think answer 2 should be correct too if eating it can give humans a fatal disease

Yogi, There is a huge difference between making an animal suffer and eating meat in general (obviously, if they are killed humanly). Why is the answer to cut out meat altogether?

Player #37787952, I would say that what people were most upset about the horse meat is the underhanded way they were tricked. And then the supermarkets and butcher's doubled down with "oh, we had no idea"

Well... Other meals are cruel too anyway. We kill cows, chicken. It's not okay too...
