Milly 3 months agoPeople are cool with eating baby lambs and baby deers and cute cows, pigs, elk, bison, but not something sort of like a fancy cow? Ok….. Makes sense.

cicadetta 3 months agoI’m pretty sure that people don’t often eat fawn, and lambs (at least in the States), are functionally adults by the time they’re ready to be slaughtered. (Sheep develop quickly and hit puberty at under a year, unless they’ve been wethered.) Veal is another story… That said, yes, there’s a double standard. Cultural taboos are weird like that. The double standard, however, is not the issue. The issue is people knowing what they’re ingesting.

That was what started this entire debate, phenylbutazone found in the meat, which lead to DNA testing of the meat, which again lead to the big question of if this was allowed to pass, what other dangers are hidden in our food?
