You should think about the pain and suffering an animal has to go through to “become” Bacon. It would just be fair if a near relative (one of your children maybe) would have to go through the same. *crosses fingers*
Really? I understand that not everyone is comfortable with being at the top of the food chain, and I am fine if you choose to be vegetarian or vegan, that's peachy. I choose to eat meat, and I like it. I know that it comes from dead animals, and that not all are treated as well as I would like in their lives, or killed humanely. That saddens me, and if I am aware of a company that is particularly heinous, I do not support them. But suggesting that someone's children should be made into bacon is taking it WAY TOO FAR.
