      In all fairness, most of the animals humans eat are adorable. I won’t judge someone for eating guinea pig anymore than I’d judge them for eating beef. However, despite that, I wish I had not seen this.

        Fair point.

        I was vegan as a health necessity for a few years. I still prefer eating veggies wherever possible, but when I’m living in someone else’s home and have to adhere to someone else’s diet, it’s not always possible.

        Fish are generally harder to relate to, especially compared to mammals. Lots of people eat anglerfish and… well to each their own but I’d say it’s not easy on the eyes.
