I could raise a moral case that eating you is bad and eating dobbin is OK
but I assume you meant 'animals other than humans'

I reckon there's an argument that eating endangered animals is immoral or at least not clever. I think you could also make a moral argument that eating animals over a certain level of intelligence is iffy.

I do, however agree that the difference between cows and horses is only that people see horses as pets, see also dogs. this has no moral validity.

Meh, dogs aren't herbivores.
You could draw a taste and health distinction on that level, I suppose, but not a moral one.

I was only talking about morals.
I'm sure a dog could live on veg, any ideas what they feed them in korea? the ones that are bred for food?

Dogs can't really live as vegetarians
hence the fucktard vegans who keep them as pets on a veggie diet end up messing up their health.

But I'm guessing for food it's a low meat diet for better flavour, but they would be farming young dogs for meat so I don't suppose long term health is their concern.

this was my thought, they'd be fed whatever tastes best
it's not like any other farmed meet animal is fed anything like their 'natural' diet anyway, unless their health is necessary to their purpose.

I imagine Al would be a bit gristly.

I like that bear face ham you get in the supermarket because it's made of real bears.
