Hopefully get a few yrs out of it before a passing plane accidentally found me, then I had to go back to real life and convince people I wanted to be found, really wanted. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have any of you complaining researched the UK commercial meat industry? No different to the dogs in the original video only sub in pigs or chickens or whatever. The UK supermarket meat market is shocking and wrong, poorly regulated and just forced to grow as fast a possible for commercial gain. Not for GOOD MEAT. Watch a doc on Netflix called Hogswood. Don't agree with what/how they did it.......but can't argue with the footage. Cant talk about chinks mistreating dogs for meat when we do exactly the same with other animals. Buy from a supermarket and this video is what you are buying. I know what you mean. But it comes down to money and by and large public are oblivious to what happens behind the scenes. Like chickens a free range over a tenner compared to to three quid one. Some people have no choice and others would prefer few more beers than worry about. It’s like any thing intensively grown from meat to veg. The flavour difference compare to home grown is so huge it does make you wonder what they do to make things so tasteless. Had joint of home reared pork other day. Flavour was 10/10 compare to cheap bit out of Tesco flavour is down to 3/10 . The difference is huge. That goes from beef to spuds the huge gap in flavour between home grown Edited December 11, 2023 by terryd 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 46,496 Posted December 11, 2023 Report Share Posted December 11, 2023 Those chinkys are horrible little c**ts, period ! On the subject of pork, once you have eaten free range, naturally reared pork you will never eat “shop” pork again….it’s completely different. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We just can't be hypocritical about the chinks with dogs when we do the same with most animals. It only upsets us because we don't see dogs as food. Same as French with horses, they have horse farms attached to abbottoirs. Haven't tried my home grown yet....looking forward to it though! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Totally agree, folks have said to me plenty of times “how can you kill your animals after you got to know them” but I always tell them the same: They come here, they have a nice free range life, they get to know and trust me, they ain’t packed in like flys and when the time comes they go on the trailer stress free because it’s “just another place the bloke with the food is feeding us” and bobs you uncle. I have kept good cattle and I have kept the dairy bulls nobody wants, the dairy bulls are more satisfying both to your ego and your pocket….they are essentially a waste product !!….but lads like us can just put them in a field, treat them nice for 8 or 10 months and have a freezer full of veal at the end….and all for a buy cost of about 25-50 per beast. Its cheap eating and it gives them a life beyond being “garbage” Pigs are the same, €50 for a piglet and in no time at all you have 300lbs of the nicest pork you will ever eat and you know the animal got treated right all the way along. Those animals are dying anyway, it’s the life they live before that which matters. 9 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hindu`s worship cattle they also believe that that the dog is a messenger of Yama, the god of death, and dogs guard the doors of Heaven , Muslims and Jews see pigs as unclean. Buddhists value all animals religion does have an effect on how people see and subsequently treat animals Quote Link to post Share on other sites
