Someday vat-grown meat will assuage our guilty conscience and delicate sensibilities while still permitting us to enjoy a burger.

It has been worth it, up til the point when the human population grew so large that meat became an environmentally unsustainable industry. I heartily endorse replacing this practice with vat-growing meat. My gf, like most humans, is more squeamish of "Lovecraftian" vat-grown beef than she is of animal killings, so that probably won't take off for a while either. C'est lavie.

This is nothing compared to what is on the PETA website. View it if you dare.

Little lamb, who made thee?
Dost thou know who made thee,
Gave thee life, and bade thee feed
By the stream and o’er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing, wooly, bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
....

Oh, who really cares? You're yummy and I'm looking forward to your shanks tonight with a nice Ribera del Duero, some ratatouille with chorizo and polenta.

Yes, photography is worthwhile. Except of babies. Ugly little things.

If you dismemebered the lamb without killing it you could get the meat without the murder. I'm not sure if that's ethical, but you wonder why more people don't do their meat that way.

When are the Jews gonna rebuild the temple, and start sacrificing those tasty animals again?

Yeah, all those freshly killed goats kept the priestly class on a high protein diet - how godly and handy

at the door, freshly grilled, thyme and lemon and real smoked flavor

real deal sea salt

and the peasants keep em coming

Beware those who are eating the Sacred Goats

Or drinking the left over Sacrament Wine, for sure

Blaire @ 5, making such a lamb roast is surprisingly easy, and totally delicious. Rub some olive oil on the roast. As you can see from the picture, you want to poke some holes into the roast and push some rosemary and garlic into them. You first do a 30-minute high-heat sizzle. After the sizzle, pour a cup of white wine over the lamb. Turn the heat down and roast for another hour. Make some gravy. Serve with vegetables - I like potatoes, parsnips and beetroot.

You can find the specifics like the exact temperatures and other variations online.

Before this slog post I totally thought all meat came from the meat fairy, silly me!

One of these things is not like the other...

If meat is murder, murder is TASTY!
