Oysters

Raposa I mean they're gonna get eaten, rather on a hillside in Nagano, than offed drenched in your own shit and pumped full of roids in a factory in Rotherham.

Bob Mortimer's account of working in a chicken processing factory as a teenager in his "And Away" book is grim. I'll only ever eat free range chicken and eggs.

Re eating pets -I used to share an office with an academic in his 70s who was hyper intelligent but also incredibly strange. He once told me that he got a taste for eating Guinea Pig on a trip to South America. When he returned home he used to buy them from his local pet shop, skin and gut them and roast them for a Sunday lunch with Yorkshire puddings etc. After a number of visits to the pet shop the owner had him down as a big Guinea pig enthusiast and tried to chat with him about the challenges of keeping lots of them. When he matter of factly replied "Oh no, I don't keep them as pets, I eat them" the owner went ballistic and banned him from his shop.

Jon I know. His wife had died years ago apparently and I sometimes wondered whether he'd eaten her as well.

fuzzy there's an oddness to his behavior, hinting at much darker things. If he liked the taste of guinea pigs so much, why didn't he just keep his fetish to himself and simply breed them for food? Thereby clearly creating a clear distinction between food and pet. Him going regularly to the pet shop and buying what can only be viewed as a pet, hoping to be challenged was a performance, and was probably the first stage of a series of perversities inflicted on the animal.

Misura Very much this. I'll tell you some more stories about him when I get chance.

Whitstable, I thought they tasted OK with chilli sauce, there again the stuff I got given in China years ago, they pissed on it.

Never knowingly eaten oysters, or guinea pigs. Like plenty of other seafood, but I've never got round to them but might do one day. When the vast majority of people say they taste like snot or cum, it's not really a great selling point, is it?

Guinea pigs? Don't think I'll be eating them any time soon. I believe hedgehogs are a delicacy amongst the gypsy/traveller community? Anyone ever had them?
