I love meat too much to become a vegetarian I suppose. I mean, I can go without meat for a long period. The longest period was that 100 days after my dad passed away. It was no problem for me. But I don't seem to be able to see myself giving up meat totally for my life.
We're all selfish. For my selfish taste buds, I cannot foresee myself giving up KFC, chicken rice, sweet n sour pork, BBQ sausages, pork chops etc etc etc. But I'm aware that the animal died for my stomach. Maybe its self-consolation, but I know at least that the animal was already dead, whether or not I was going to buy it or eat it. I mean, I did not directly choose for it to die. In other words, you will never find me standing in front of a fish tank at a seafood restaurant telling the waitress which fish I want, which crab I want, or which prawns I want. I cannot bear to look at it alive now and then on my plate in half an hour.
