Eat? I can barely bring myself to say it!

Here goes........Treacle Tart

An unnatural aberration if ever there was one.
Just the thought of it round my teeth makes me want to heave.

Veal from older bull calve would not be so cruel. Instead of killing dairy herd bullocks at birth, as is common practise, rearing them for 6 months or so before slaughter would at least give them a useful life. It is the old methods of producing veal that puts people off. Rose veal, as it's called, is a very good meat - and no worse than rearing lambs for the market.

Given a choice, meat-wise, I prefer eating animals killed 'on the hoof'.
At least then, I know they haven't had to travel miles to an abbatoir squashed up, terrified. Imagine the poor beasts in this heat :-(

So, I eat a lot of venison and wild boar. Don't care what bit of the animal it is, I'll eat it :-D
