See, to people in India, the cow is sacred, to the rest of us a cow is sacred as a yummy burger. Some cultures hold pigs on a pedestal while others barbecue them.
so who in the hell are we to judge those who eat "non conventional meats"?? just because we think it's "bad" to eat whale, to the Japanese whale is just another fish. (Yes I know whales are mammals) but my point is, what is OK in one culture, may not be OK in another.

again....i have no problem with those cultural beliefs....but how many people in texas do you see worshiping cows or pigs?
