I could never be a vegetarian

Mmmmmmmmmm...bacon!

PETA is a cult, built on propaganda and stolen donations, lies to the general public and public displays of stupidity. Seriously.

I agree, all the idiot celebrities that preach about animal rights still eat a steak dinner when they go out!

I remember when they started joining Greenpeace in pestering my people for whaling, so they took it upon themselves to make an email template, in which you complain the the Prime Rib Roast Minister of Denmark about it. The Prime Minister who has no power in the country in question, because it is a self-governing country in the Kingdom of Denmark (Kongeriget Danmark)

This is like complaining to David Cameron about petrol prices in India.

Where are you?

Faroe Islands native. Moved to DK after I married.

Wow! Just googled it, thats some gorgeous country!

Beauty at a price. Financially. The climate and location are unforgiving to most crops.

We have to make due with what we have. Which is mostly sheep, fish, overpriced potatoes, whale, puffin, or really expensive imported goods.

With all that grass, does anyone raise cattle?

A good bit, but unlike with the sheep, cattle are restricted to farms, and most farms in a country as small as Føroyar aren't large enough to support any kind of industrious farms that you see in the mainland. It's the folly of inhabiting an island.

I was thinking more of a small business thing, raise a few cows- keep what you need- sell the rest to pay for other things that you need, you may not get rich, but you could stay in your homeland.

As you can imagine, beef is less abundant in the capital. What does get sold usually sells out pretty fast. And at kr100 for 0,5kg of local beef and 150 for imported, you tend to just stick with sheep and blubber and such. The sheep outnumber the islanders almost 3-to-1, and fishing is pretty much all we know. Those are the best meats to sell.

I thought of that one after i submitted it...

And fried turkey products, oddly enough. Doesn't taste like bacon, but it smells like it.

Really? I never fried any turkey products, the only time i eat turkey is around thanksgiving

Stuff like sandwich meat. Sliced turkey smells like bacon when fried. Ground turkey kinda does too. And this is coming from someone who lives in a country who's national meal is bacon.
