Originally posted by SJ247I think that implies that you could eat clams, but not scallops. Seems like an odd distinction when put in those terms....
I think lobsters matter. I made a rule that if it has eyes, I'm not eating it.
Whether or not crustaceans feel pain, I have no idea, but I'm betting that even without the sensation of pain, death is a very unpleasant experience.
I don't buy the whole "they don't feel pain" thing at all.

Originally posted by SJ247I decided to go by the rule "If it has eyes, or moves, dont eat it." One day a friend gave me a clam, claming my rule excluded it. Now I might as well say, "Anything that can feel pain". However, then the issue of whether plants feel pain comes up.

Originally posted by rbmorrisI left out the grape tomatos, lime zest, and replaced lime juice with lemon juice. Also had orange instead of yellow bell pepper, and added cucumber, kidney beans, and corn. A really fast/easy thing to make, and is VERY good.
Plx include me.
