  No no no. I would eat a cow. But I would also pet a cow.

  I guess it depends if it’s alive or dead.

  First one, then the other! The order is important…

  Pet/food decisions are mostly based on carnivore/herbivore type. Eating carnivorous animals poisons us over time, among other issues.

    How on Earth is it poison…

      Bioaccumulation of mercury, lead, etc., or too many vitamins: the more organisms in total eaten on the way to the one you eat. Herbivores have significantly fewer. A few bites of polar bear liver will send you into acute vitamin A overdose with permanent effects, if not death. Another one: Why Don’t We Eat Carnivores?

    What about a scorpion?

      They’re really unpleasant to eat - much like a tarantula they’re basically all exoskeleton and that makes them a bit like chewing a big mouth full of fried peanut shells. But flavor-wise the meat is actually pretty tasty.

      It’s 2026, doesn’t everyone eat ass?

        I’d pet them if they aren’t angry but I can’t say I’ve thought of eating donkeys. Necessity of survival, perhaps?

  Just depends on how hungry you are.

    Yes, most of the toxins were discovered and recorded by people who observed the desperate, effectively.

  If it sings with you then it’s a friend, if it doesn’t then it’s food.
