what animal do you refuse to eat because...

Veal, because for some reason all I can imagine is a little baby cow strapped down the ground who can't move to stay "tender". However, I know that basically all animals who will be used for meat are treated terribly, and I just try to not think about it.

I'm never going to be that guy who'd "kill what he eats" because I'm honestly just not into that shit. I guess it's a cop out to let other people do that stuff for me.
Cows really don't give a shit. "What? A train just tore off half my face? If you say so. I was wondering why I wasn't able to eat."
 
Crabs are basically big water spiders, big delicious water spiders, its all down hill from that.

I often wonder who the first person in history to eat a crab. WTF was that guy thinking? Nothing about a crab looks appetizing to me.

But kudos to him man, because crab is delicious.

In my experience, "the first human to eat ____" would most likely either be a Frenchman or a Chinese dude.
 
And what about the first person to make coffee from the beans excreted by a Civet cat. I'm guessing this is also the person that invented Hot Pockets.

Hey, that cat just shit some coffee beans, I gotta try that!

I too refuse to eat wood.
 
Veal needs to be eaten because it is delicious. I had a fried bologna sammich last night, it was basically the best thing ever, so wherever bologna comes from I eat that too.
 

I was looking for a good reply, I'll just agree with you.

I will try any animal once. So far the only thing completely off my list is calamari.

Heathen.

Isn't even my favorite Calamari, but good.

I like the Calamari by my Martini 🙂

Haven't stopped there in awhile, it's right by the house, might soon.

The Grouper there is one of the few places the wife will even eat fish.

I'm pretty sure it was a south park episode.

barfing screaming babies are maybe the only baby animal I don't find particularly cute when I'm on public transport, but it's also the one I never eat.

I've never eaten cats or dogs or insect larvae either but I admit it's a western hypocrisy, there's no ethical reason for banning their sale (actually eating them is a personal choice though).

If the bunny in the OP grows up to be a nice 5-6 pound rabbit, I'll happily humanely kill it, skin it, cook it, and eat it. I prefer to saute rabbit in a nice white wine sauce, with bay leaves. MMmmm, my mouth is watering now; gonna be hard to make it til lunch time.
