Am I a hypocrite that I treat my chickens as loving pets but I eat chicken from Popeye's or KFC?

Chickens are half carnivore. Is that not creepy?

"Half carnivore" lol

some chickens were raised as pets and some were raised as food. it's ok to eat a food chicken but you cant eat pet chickens. you can turn a food chicken into a pet chicken by rescuing it but you can never turn a pet chicken into a food chicken unless its the apocalypse and even then i dont think i could.

Even South Korea has cracked down on dog farms and restaurants. Personally, I find eating any carnivore sort of creepy.

By ancestors I mean a couple hundred years in the past, like 5-400ish. Some cousins to the far north kept dogs for their fur and spun it like yarn.

I prefer critters that make grass / bugs / seeds into meat. Not meat into meat.

Heck, I mean, same with pigs. Most herbivores will even eat some meat when it's available.

My list is shorter and not as absolute as never.
Dry white meat.

Yes I do own those but its because they are not meat breeds. They were bred as pets and for egg laying and it would just be wrong to kill them. There is no point in eating them anyway since they are skinny and have pretty much no meat on them.
