You Are Fish

You have a well formed palate and a daring appetite. If it’s served to you, you’ll at least try it. People are pretty scared of your exotic ways. But once they get a taste of you, they’re addicted!

Think bladerunner… decker’s a fish too.

You Are Duck

Exotic and unusual, you are a bit of a rare bird – literally.

You’re known for being soft and succulent, though at times you can be a bit greasy.What Kind of Meat Are You?

I know I have often feared your exotic ways.

Well if that’s true, then I am severely allergic to you!

worse yet… that meme claims tofu is a kind of meat! (see my blog)

well it is like blood sausage or cheese… it is the congealed liquid from the soybean…. but unlike milk, it is harvested by destroying the bean…. and unlike blood sausage, where the animal can be left alive, the plant that could grow from that bean never becomes anything. it really depends on where you draw the line. some plants can make sounds, some plants bleed, some plants have severe chemical changes when they are cut into, much like a pain reaction. there is even no reason to believe that they are not sentient in some way. the difference is entirely arbitrary, i think, as it collapses at the edges. there is.. of course, an economic-ethical argument that one can make based on the capacity to feed more people if everyone ate veggies and soy, but any argument that is based on the capacity or nature of the thing being eaten is just anthropomorphic bias and speciesism… tofu is the ‘blood’ of a bean that has been destroyed in a process that may have caused real ‘pain’ or something parallel to it, in its world.

The irony, of course, is that I am the only “western” vegetarian who does NOT eat tofu. But anyway.
