“My wife is Buddhist, can’t kill anything.”

Plants are living things.

They don’t mind killing Plants

So they're specists? They favor organisms like themselves (animals), but kill those (plants) who are different?

IOW, she values $$$$ over the poor little creatures lives.

What about bacon? I say eat bacon. Besides being tasty it keeps the muzzies at bay.

If vegans wore cowboy boots, those pointy toes were made for killing roaches in corners.

But, alas.....

[Salamander]

I have hungry Boas.

Send them to me.

Hydrogenation isn’t used for extraction.

Cats will not only kill rats, but most all will kill cockroaches. It is their nature to chase down and kill small things that run around on the floor.

We used to have a cat that would run them down and eat them.
Disgusting to see.

Technically yes, but it is used in processing veg oils and it is what makes them even worse for us, health wise. And the vegs still do go through processing to get the oil out of them. no one eats corn and notes about how oily the corn is.

[T-Bone Texan]

If I have to pick between my cats eating cockroaches, or cockroaches walking across my face at night, I will pick cats eating cockroaches EVERY TIME.
