Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Thou sayest..
It IS just like that and no rationalizing can make these Facts disappear. (And there are lots of veggies for quite more variety than most of us ken ..I'm finding).

(Let's not even think about the CHICKENS), their beak-tips sliced-off ... by the most mizzuble-worker-slaves/almost 100% no-Green-Card refugees, themselves ... the ONLY Class who will put up with their also dangerous, filthy enviro on the slaughterhouse floor: because they have no choice and the overseers don't give any more of a rats-ass for these slaves as they do about (any other living thing, as seems to follow).

There's some clinical evidence that little cheeldrun who like to torture animals correlate well with later-on Repo-mindset? ..Bizness 'careers' akin to the habits of the Orange misanthrope and all who ride-in-her. Food-for-thought, there, I wot. We are amidst gaggles of Despicables ... it's no wonder that drug-escapes are a popular exit from .. now just another shit-hole country amidst the anonymous others.

I don't 'miss-the-meat' either; just have to become less iggerant of the manifold other options: Early-on, with a friend who had joined The Mothers/Zappa et al: we dined at a veggie place in L.A. called Help! First experience of just what a Good-chef could do with A PLANT or ten. (I draw the line at Okra, though.. and can't eschew the seafood ..yet, figuring their sentience to be a cut-below that of near-sentient *mammals all around us).
* exceptions the Cetaceans, various others: Sentience is all around us ..if we just See what ..usually we just give a desultory glance, en passant. {sigh}

PS: Whaling! is the last-refuge of scoundrels/individual or their voracious Countries--as with the fans of Ivory baubles ..too long a list to stomach. To any Gaiea-equivalent Out There: [??] Lay On! Macduff! No galaxy NEEDS a planet-full of sleep-walkers in their midst (Dark Star had a solution: the destruction of "unstable planets". I hadn't thought that the plot was pure-Prescience/just wasn't that smart :-/
(Now that I understand: I CAN die Happy :-) within a Cosmos so ept.. eh?

New What? No Okra?
I serve okra often, in stews and the like, and it is always well received. Of course, like Brussels Sprouts, you have to cook it right.

I pick the smallest, youngest Okras from the bins. I shave the cap end as a cone, being careful there are no holes into the interior. I then tumble the pods with Vinegar, enough to coat well, and let them soak for 20 minutes or so, tumbling them a couple of times. Then rinse well, and add to the stew near the end of cooking.

Actually, Okra done this way is durable enough to stand reheating the recipe. There are other ways to cook Okra which are also good.
New Thanks; unfortunately I've never tried it ..cooked Properly. But there's this re pork:
WaPo on latest deregulations of the Hog Industry.

(Alas, to steal a line from Roman Holiday, "I shall always cherish: ..." the fond memory of hog-meat.) {sigh}
New There's enough residue of Southern in me to enjoy fried okra.
