Don't tell me you guys didn't know that for ham the hogs get a prostheses and for bacon they get a tummy tuck. No harm done, right?

Oh that is SO funny!! I can't believe any one would even SAY that We just finished reading the book, "Where the Red Fern Grows," and had a good cry, so we needed a good laugh! Thanks!

Wait . . . but . . . I don't understand. Where did you see this? I just don't understand how anyone could be this . . . what's the word? It's dumber than dumb. It's more than idiotic. We might have to make up a word to describe such a total lack of reasoning skills. I guess Qui-Gon Jinn was right, "The ability to speak does not make you intelligent."

OMGosh, This reminds me of my city slicker cousin when I was young who didn't know milk came from cows. He was amazed when he came to visit and we went out and milked the cow!!

@Ben: I received this E-mail from my Pastor Son-in-law in Houston. Unfortunately, I have heard such idiotic reasoning concerning animal rights etc. that this becomes believable.

From what I see of this it refers to a column and the Speakout. The person then says,"I am an avid reader." @grandmat: Yeah, people from the country understand much more about how everything is provided. The same is understood about killing what is needed. It's all a part of everyday living when you don't have a grocery store to provide everything you need. I love fresh milk and people will say, "Isn't that bad for you?" They just don't get it.

we have a joke about sausages in Ukraine similar to what you all talking about here: "In the process of making this sausage no animal was harmed at all" :)

Haha, Alex, I've heard the same joke about hot dogs kinda, that vegans should eat them because there really isn't any meat in them, lol.

I eat hotdogs every now and then and I don't think I want to know what kind of meat is in them. HaHA!

I agree with you, there, Steve! If I eat a hot dog, I pretend I never heard some of the gross stuff that is put into them.
