Um, ew.
Those are the words used in this Post piece [1] to describe the suckling pig at Spanish restaurant Ureña.
And while the idea of drinking a baby pig is certainly gross enough on its own, I can’t get this recent BoingBoing post [2] regarding the horrors of factory pig farming out of my head.
We do some weird things for our food, people. I’m with Dana [3] on the whole “let people choose for themselves” thing, but my god, these are choices that are really easy for me, personally, to make.
I’ll pass.
