It’s because we give a damn, and have for >15 years. In my case, it’s because I’m still silly, even after all these years.....
As someone who actually LIVED on a farm and knows what "go out back and get a chicken for dinner" actually meant, I'd bet no one else on this thread would have the guts to truly "make their own dinner" from killing it, gutting and cleaning it and getting it ready for the frying pan.
They'll probably call me an animal abuser for this post, the gutless sissies.
