The Infowarrior

On the canary islands they eat goat, in Peru they eat Guinea Pigs, in France they eat horses. which seems horrible to most, but we quite happily eat cows, which in India are a sacred animal not simply protected or kept as pets, actually sacred.

I just find things like this a little hypocritical.
