So PETA wants fish to be called sea kittens?

Dr. Hibbert: "And hillbillies want to be called 'Sons of the Soil', but it ain't gonna happen."

MMMm...... sea kittens...

It like the cat I already eat, but brined. Delicious!

Doesn't Pescadero actually mean "fisherman"? Anyway, PETA members are wack jobs. Hmmmm, fishing for kittens, here kitty, kitty, kitty.........;)

"we don't like to eat cat because they're cute and ... fuzzy"

so are rabbits, and so is bambi

According to Marvin Harris ("Cows, Pigs, Wars & Witches") we eat things that make sense and not things that don't make sense. e.g. cats are useful - they kill mice & rats (which carry diseases, like bubonic plague) so we do not eat them.

Hindus do not eat cows - they used them as tractors
The Masai do not eat cows either - they used to just drink their blood - reason: the cows stay alive in the desert and can provide blood & milk for a long time - if they provide meat, they can only do that once.

We don't eat dogs - they help us hunt (but not in ancient China -- and guess what)

Harris's ideas are not really very testable (except in the comparisons shown above) but they do make sense.

Now, back to fish...

I had some tuna sashimi Sat. & am hungry for more fish today....
