Meh, it's in Switzerland. If they won't back me in a fight they're no friends of mine. Let the black holes eat their chocolates, their private banks, their watches, their enviable train system. Mwahahahahaaaaa......

Let's just avoid all the BS and eat local, (real) organic, and free-range.

Nothing better than a fresh-killed chicken who was just walking around your yard.

Great idea, bluecuracao. Start a "Kill & Eat Your Pet" thread, with pictures of the execution, preparation of the corpse, cooking, and the feast.

My dad buys weaners and fattens them up and then when they're feeling all smug and self satisfied he shoots them while they're eating their breakfast.

The last one was named boris. When we talk to dad we ask how Boris is going (besides being the most tender tasty beef ever), and he always says, "he's just lying around in the freezer".

phew.

For a while there I was reading "Weaners" as "Wieners" (dachshunds).

Nah...we don't eat dogs here. Pretty much everything else though. I don't know if you use the same term over there, but a weaner is a young bovine (and some other animals) which has been recently weaned from it's mother.

Especially if it's served over pancakes.

Yearling or veal, I reckon.

Australians are not the nation with the pancake fascination UG.

When they go to market I believe those terms are employed (Yearling or veal, I reckon.) , but most farmers just call them weaners until they get to market.

Sure seemed that way over in WA, though.

But I think I saw meat pies there, too.

Yeah, farmer-ology.
