“Eww, Mum! Do pigs really eat animal hands and feet?”

“The older generation like to boil them for soup stock, but yes, some pigs enjoy frying or roasting them. If you salt and oil the skin before putting them in the oven it goes nice and crispy”

“That’s gross Mum. Don’t they sit on their feet in the cages? Doesn’t that mean their pee and ….”

“Enough, Piglet!! You will put us off our dinner!! Stop talking like this, what’s gotten into you?”

“But look, Mum! That one still has nipples attached!! That’s disgusting. I don’t think I want to eat animals anymore”

“Don’t be ridiculous. You need to eat animals for protein. Remember that advert for the animal industry and all of those studies they quoted? If we don’t eat them, we won’t survive. It’s the natural order of things”

“But my friend Daisy said her family don’t eat animals, and her big brother is a professional athlete. He won the last UFC actually…”

“Shut up and stop this nonsense. Put the breast in the trolley. We have to hurry to pick your sister up from dance classes. Come on, move!”
