Meat is murder

Today, my fiancé's parents visited. I keep chickens for their eggs, and his parents own a farm, so we had a connection. They told us to leave the house while they cooked us dinner. When we returned, we faced two steaming plates of chicken. My chickens. They had names. FML

Awwwwww, that's so sad!!! Like they served you the family dog... So, did you tell them, or did you try to 'man up'?

That sucks bad! I would have burst out crying right in front of their eyes... I can't believe people are clicking YDI =/

carnivores can really be jerks sometimes

That's simply AWFUL. No real person would assume it's okay to butcher other people's animals without asking. I'd probably cry too, and I eat meat! I would try to cut back, but I can't now that I seem to have developed a wheat intolerance, and our nation thrives on wheat.

that wasn't really nice :( you should've broken up with him right then & there. :)

that's really sad. sorry to hear that. :( That's something you or your fiance should have probably told them about before hand though..

That's awful. I'm sorry for your loss. @ #252, allergies can be treated.

oh wow, thats a really bad "meet the parents" situation. although in time you'll probably look back on it and laugh.

I think that this is horrible, but if you kill their cat or dog, has does that make it even? It wouldn't be the fault of the cat or dog, it's the fault of the in-laws. I'm really pissed at those people who are saying that vegetarians and vegans are retarded... I'm a vegan, I don't want to hurt animals, does that make me retarded? I don't think so, but you are intitled to your own opinion, even if it's insensative and inconsiderate.

that's awful. i honestly wouldn't forgive them if i were you.

while this is likely your own fault for exploiting another species, I still feel very very bad for you. step 1: hide their dog for a little while. step 2: cook up some bbq tofu and feed it to them. step 3: tell them they just are their dog. hopefully they will then be enlightened and you can return the dog to its newly -converted vegetarian (hopefully vegan) owners.

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm also a vegetarian and would be horrified if someone tries to serve me my dog or something. But if youre marrying this person AND youre leaving the parents in your home alone, I would think you've met them before, so shouldnt they have known you were a vegetarian? # 9, you are an idiot because humans do not have sharp teeth. We have flat teeth because we do not have to hunt and kill our food with our mouths the way a wolf or shark would. ( And if you believe in evolution then we evolved from chimps who are herbivores and also do not have sharp teeth which is why it takes humans so long to digest meat, because we originally didn't eat meat.)
