1. Somebody else killed a plant. Didn't want it to go to waste. Ate it. Felt a bit guilty.
2. Killed a plant with own hands. Ate it. Felt indifferent.
3. Tortured a plant. Killed it. Ate it. Disappointed. Deserved a trophy.
4. Tortured a plant. Killed it. Took a picture of it. Mounted picture on wall. Put remains in compost bin.
5. Paid $500 to hunt an uncommon plant far from home. Tortured it. Killed it. Put its flower between pages of a book. Keep book under pillow.
6. Paid $50,000 to hunt rare plant in Africa. Tortured it. Killed it. Put its root in a box filled with extracted teeth. Keep box at office. Nobody else needs to know.
7. Root Canal Appreciation Day! Time to admire the box again! Woohoo!

I consider meat products the rent the animal pays for the industrial process that gave it life in the first place.
Farm animal life should be as humane as possible -- Golden Rule applies here.

Deer of course overwhelm their ecosystem without culling.
But shooting wild animals just for the sport of it is pretty sick, a mindless destruction of natural wealth.
As a society, we're not doing so well on the humanely as possible path, and yet I still eat chicken. Sigh.
My girlfriend has been trying hard to kick the meat habit though. So far, so good.
