>>>And they'll ask us uncomfortable questions we won't have good answers for. Didn't you know about the health risks at the amounts you were consuming?

Yup. Didn't care. Bacon-wrapped filet mignon tastes THAT good. Some things are worth the risk. Like driving too fast, riding motorcycles, or skydiving.

>>>Didn't you know about the carbon footprint?

Same answer here...

>>>Most importantly, didn't you have ample evidence of consciousness, personality, and sentience in every way that is reasonable to us?

And here too.

>>>We didn't eat dogs but considered pigs and cows different? Why?

I actually HAVE eaten dog. It's a specialty delicacy in Korea.

I think most of the world isn't anywhere close to taking the conscientious Western approach to animal flesh.
