Guest guest Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 As I was driving home this morning I saw a huge sign above the door at a chain grocery store that said, "Buffalo for Sale." Yes, I was tired and for a minute it just did not compute. Was the store selling animals? Then I remembered, people eat this! I'm the strange one!

Guest guest Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Hi Beth A good strange though :-) Jo - betharon Saturday, October 21, 2006 6:53 PM I just had to vent about this..

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 I live in the Southwest, but I am not from here. So this surprised me when I first saw it. What a depressing billboard! I know I may be called naive, but sometimes I just don't understand it. First of all, humans don't need to eat animals to survive and why the hostility toward those who choose not to? Does it all just come down to economics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 buffalo has been pushed for a number of years.... especially in states like colorado, montana, etc outside Grand Junction colorado, we saw this big billboard which said something to the effect "Vegans go home, this is beef country" sweet... *sigh* betharon Oct 21, 2006 10:53 AM I just had to vent about this..

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 Hi Peter >one little iota? do they come in different sizes over there? Didn't you know, you can now get the Standard Iota, the King-size Iota or the Economy size Iota. I'm guessing the " little " one is the econmy size. :-) BB Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
