Yet another question

A question posted by a good friend of mine in Boston:

"So, you'd eat Kangaroo and Apes? Those are bipedal animals, although perhaps those could be classified as "cute." "


--Ahhh, stipulations stipulations...Jen, you're a funny one. No, I would not eat Kangaroo or Apes because yes, they are Cute. But, perhaps I should add another stipulation for clarification's sake.

I don't eat 2 legged mammals. Birds (ie. chicken/turkey) are not mammals, but they are two legged. So, I eat them. However, ducks are among the cuter of the two-legged birds, and therefore, I don't eat them.

Perhaps you could then ask...well then why don't you eat pigeon?

answer--they fly. I don't eat two-legged birds that fly.

I'm coming to the realization that my Dana's Dietary Laws is not without problems. It is not an exhaustive list...so, if I should be asked about other dietary dispersions...well, then so be it.

Now, with regards to eating out. Please refer to the following article I have written in the past: It's informative and actually helpful.


Question of the moment: Fish...good or bad?

Dana's Discourse: Heart-healthy fats...good. Fishy smell...bad. Buy your fish fresh and cook early and often.
