One of our friends ran cattle and yearly they would have a roundup where they'd invite their friends to help participate and then have a bbq afterwards. It was great fun because we all could practice our wanna-be cowboy skills and have an excuse to get plenty dirty in the process. One woman -- newly transplanted to the country -- thought it would be fun to bring her toddler daughter along for a session of "See the cow. The cow goes 'Moo.'" She was rather taken aback by the flurry of activities going on -- roping, branding, innoculations, castrating, ear notching -- and became rather vocal about her displeasure about what was happening and how the cows/calves were being treated. (IMHO, I think those cows had a pretty good life where for 5 minutes or so of discomfort they get to spend the rest of the year sitting under a nice tree hanging with friends....we all should be so lucky!) Anyway, Ol' Cyrus was working the "snip" chute and had about enough of her squawking and blathering and as he casually chucked another set of mountain oysters into a bucket said "Lady, what'd you expect? We'd round them up and have tea?"

She pursed her lips, flushed bright red, turned on her heels and didn't stick around for supper.....
 
Listen to this one! So when one of my "girls" first started to lay she started with a jelly egg. I was fascinated by it and the next day we were having a birthday party at my house and I told everyone about it. My husband's aunt asked what I had done with it. I said I had tossed it as I was pretty sure the lack of shell would have encouraged bacterial growth. She said I shouldn't have done that. All eggs are laid soft like that and harden after just a few minutes. No reasoning on my part could sway her. Her argument"If the eggs were hard, the hens could never pass them"

WOW!

She's never seen the distress of a pullet trying to pass a rubber egg. b/c it's so soft, and is not the correct shape, her muscles have nothing to work against. Kind of like trying to push out a sponge.
 
Ask them to explain exactly how it's different. I'd love to hear what they say! Seriously, meat is MEAT. No matter what shape it is, it's still a dead animal!

I tried, she could not come up with anything, it is just a mental block. Hopefully, my questions gave her something to think about in her own time, when she is ready to "deal" with it (ie reality). You just can't push someone to far when the are not ready and clearly she is not.

One of my friends at school tried to convince me that you couldn't eat fertilized eggs and I tried to tell her that If you refrigerate it and don't let a hen sit on it or incubate it, then you are not eating a baby chick, but she just didn't get it.
However, She described an egg as a hens menstrual cycle, so there's hope for her yet!:)

Ask your friend that if you can't eat fertilized eggs, why do grocery stores sell them? Not all grocery stores, but some do. And hens do not have menstrual cycles. As far as I know, only primates do.
