Guest guest Posted December 10, 2000 Report Share Posted December 10, 2000 In the last place I worked someone brought up the subject of that film " alive " where people who survived a plane crash had to eat each other. When I (being the only vegan there) said that I would have no problems eating the dead people, the whole office went up in an uproar....they started jumping around like lunatics as if I`d finally made the ultimate contradiction.....I went on to explain that eating to survive is much different than eating the products of an unsustainable, barbaric and abstractly absurd industry, but some of them still thought they had finaaly caught me out.....The most amusing part of it (for me) was that two of the passionate meat eaters were completely convinced they would rather die than eat the flesh of their dead counterparts whilst I would have been first at the dinner table........oh the irony........
