Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for January 26, 2015
Transcript:
Pig: So what kind of food do you eat, Victor the vegan? Victor: Fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains. Freddy: Grains? I'm Freddy the fruitarian. I only eat things that fall from trees, you barbarian wheat butcher! Rat: Where does it all end? Victor: I will pelt you with a pear, Freddy the fruitarian!!

Most Vegans and Fruitarians whom I’ve encountered have been fiercely religious in their nutritional beliefs, and thus, as an established and passionate carnivore, I’ve so far just narrowly escaped getting fatwa’d, crucified and jihaded to a bloody and randomly distributed minced mess of meat for blasphemously munching on unendorsed, yet delicious, parts of Creation in their presence.

What makes anyone so sure that wheat doesn’t feel pain when it is cut? Just because we can relate more closely with an animal than with a plant doesn’t make it a superior life form.

Things that fall from trees: eggs, birds, squirrels, possums, raccoons, cats, clumsy children… That’s how you get enough protein.
